Against the backdrop of accelerated global industrial digitalization, energy transition, and smart manufacturing, automation systems are evolving from traditional control tools into core enterprise operating platforms. As a leading global provider of automation solutions, Emerson Electric is driving industrial enterprises towards a more efficient and intelligent future through its advanced DCS and PLC technologies.

The convergence of DCS and PLC is becoming the mainstream trend. Currently, the automation industry is exhibiting three key development trends:

ü DCS and PLC system integration

ü Industrial AI and data-driven decision-making

Emerson's newly released DeltaV™ DCS system (Version 16 LTS) further strengthens this trend, achieving greater flexibility and scalability through a software-based architecture. This system reduces automation costs, enhances data visualization capabilities, and significantly improves cybersecurity performance.

This signifies that automation systems are moving from the "control layer" to an "enterprise-level operations platform."

DCS + PLC Integrated Solution

DeltaV™ Distributed Control System (DCS)

Emerson's flagship DCS platform possesses the following core capabilities:

ü Integrated control, real-time analytics, and safety systems (SIS)

ü Support for cloud, edge computing, and data platforms

ü Achieve plant-wide data unification and visualization

The DeltaV system connects field devices and enterprise systems through a unified architecture, enabling enterprises to make data-driven decisions and effectively reduce downtime and operating costs.

PLC and Edge Control Capabilities (PAC/RTU)

In the PLC field, Emerson achieves the following by integrating industrial controllers with edge computing technology:

Highly reliable logic control and high-speed response

Seamless integration with DCS systems

Suitable for OEM equipment and discrete manufacturing scenarios

This "DCS + PLC converged architecture" can simultaneously cover process industries and discrete manufacturing, meeting the needs of complex industrial scenarios.
