Name

Description

TE1010 |

TwinCAT 3 Realtime Monitor

The TwinCAT 3 Realtime Monitor enables precise diagnostics and optimization of the runtime behavior of tasks in the TwinCAT 3 Runtime environment. 

TE1030 |

TwinCAT 3 Documentation Generation

TwinCAT Documentation Generation enables the creation of documentation within a machine application or PLC library. 

TE1111 |

TwinCAT 3 EtherCAT Simulation

With this engineering component, the generated control code can be tested and optimized at an early stage in the engineering process without actual hardware, meaning that real commissioning can take place much faster.

TE1120 |

TwinCAT 3 XCAD Interface

TwinCAT 3 XCAD Interface is the latest version of the interface between ECAD tools and TwinCAT 3.

TE1130 |

TwinCAT 3 CAD Simulation Interface

The TwinCAT 3 CAD Simulation Interface is a tool that allows easy configuration of couplings between TwinCAT 3 and a 3D CAD system. 

TE1200 |

TwinCAT 3 PLC Static Analysis

Static code analysis should be regarded as a supplement to the compiler. It facilitates clearer code writing and can help uncover potential sources of error during programming.

TE1210 |

TwinCAT 3 PLC Profiler

The TwinCAT 3 PLC Profiler is an analysis tool that is used for performance evaluation and optimization of PLC programs within the TwinCAT 3 software environment. 

TE13xx |

TwinCAT 3 Scope View

TwinCAT 3 Scope is a charting and analysis tool for TwinCAT. Variables in TwinCAT can be recorded and displayed graphically. 

TE131x |

TwinCAT 3 Filter Designer

The TwinCAT Filter Designer belongs to the TwinCAT Measurement product family. This tool allows digital filters to be designed with ease. 

TE132x |

TwinCAT 3 Bode Plot

The TwinCAT 3 Bode Plot is a tool for analyzing and optimizing mechanical resonances within a mechatronic system. The TwinCAT Bode Plot can be used in conjunction with the AX5xxx drives from Beckhoff.

TE1400 |

Target for Simulink®

With the TwinCAT 3 Target for Simulink®, models developed in Simulink® can be used in TwinCAT 3. Various toolboxes can be integrated into Simulink®. Embedded MATLAB® function blocks are also supported. 

TE1401 |

TwinCAT 3 Target for MATLAB®

With TwinCAT 3 Target for MATLAB®, the functions developed in the MATLAB® script language can be used in TwinCAT 3. The functions are automatically compiled in C/C++ code with the aid of the MATLAB® Coder™ and transformed into TwinCAT objects with the TwinCAT 3 Target for MATLAB®. These objects can be used seamlessly in the TwinCAT 3 Engineering, e.g. extended with PLC source code to make an overall project, debugged and linked with fieldbus devices. 

TE1410 |

TwinCAT 3 Interface for MATLAB®/Simulink®

The TwinCAT 3 Interface for MATLAB®/Simulink® enables data exchange between MATLAB® and the TwinCAT Runtime and between Simulink® and the TwinCAT Runtime.

TE1420 |

TwinCAT 3 Target for FMI

The Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is a free standard for exchanging or coupling simulation models created with different simulation tools. This is often the case when the models are provided by different suppliers or domain-specific simulation tools are used to simulate the different aspects of a machine or plant (e.g. thermal simulation, control engineering simulation).

TE1421 |

TwinCAT 3 Simulation Runtime for FMI

The Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is a free standard for exchanging or coupling simulation models created with different simulation tools. This is often the case when the models are provided by different suppliers or domain-specific simulation tools are used to simulate the different aspects of a machine or plant. 

TE1500 |

TwinCAT 3 Valve Diagram Editor

The graphically-oriented Valve Diagram Editor, which is similar to the cam plate editor, is used to design the characteristic curve of a hydraulic valve.

TE1510 |

TwinCAT 3 CAM Design Tool

A cam plate editor is used to design the motions for a cam plate.

TE1610 |

TwinCAT 3 EAP Configurator

The TwinCAT EAP Configurator is a tool for visualizing and configuring communication networks where data exchange based on the EtherCAT Automation Protocol (EAP) takes place or is to be established. EAP is used for master/master communication.

TE2000 |

TwinCAT 3 HMI Engineering

The TwinCAT 3 HMI (human-machine interface) integrates into the familiar Visual Studio® development environment. It enables platform-independent user interfaces to be developed based on current web technology (HTML5, JavaScript). 

TE3500 |

TwinCAT 3 Analytics Workbench

The TwinCAT 3 Analytics Workbench is a TwinCAT 3 engineering product for creating continuous data analyses from various decentralized machine controllers. The configuration of the workbench is integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio® and is designed as a graphical user interface.

TE3520 |

TwinCAT 3 Analytics Service Tool

The TwinCAT 3 Analytics Service Tool is used for commissioning machinery and for service engineers. Live and historical data can be retrieved for an analysis via the IoT connection or offline via file copy. Analysis configuration takes place in Microsoft Visual Studio, where a toolbox of algorithms is available to the user.

TE5910 |

TwinCAT 3 Motion Designer

The design of the drive, particularly the dimensioning of drive axes, in conjunction with the optimum selection of motor, gear unit, drive controllers, and accessories, is the foundation for efficient machine design. The TwinCAT 3 Motion Designer tool can be integrated in the TwinCAT
automation platform or used as a stand-alone project engineering tool for drive design.

TE6100 |

TwinCAT 3 OPC UA Nodeset Editor

The TwinCAT OPC UA Nodeset Editor is an engineering tool for creating and editing OPC UA nodeset files, which are used for companion specifications and other elements. With the help of the editor, existing companion specifications or your own information models can be mapped onto a Beckhoff controller and linked with data points from the PLC.
