Engineering Framework ProMaster

ProMaster- One Framework for All Automation Tasks

ProMaster contains the tools for solving all automation tasks: from the drive design to the parameterization, the programming of control units, fieldbus parameterization through to visualization. This applies throughout the entire life cycle, not only during the planning and initial commissioning but also during maintenance.

ProMaster makes engineering more efficient and systematically reduces the extent of work required despite increasing complexity. Defined interfaces, modular machine architectures, and optional extensions result in more efficient automation solutions for flexible use.

An engineering framework for all automation tasks makes processes more efficient, enables faster plant production, improves product quality, and reduces the probability of errors, thereby increasing the productivity of both the machine manufacturer and the operator.

Motion libraries and machine templates

Motion libraries and extended libraries – preconfigured modules reduce your time 2 market
External control libraries - Integration of Baumüller drives in external topologies
Machine modules – use individual preconfigured process steps to quickly and easily implement complex motion controls
Machine templates – based on the combination of several machine modules and libraries, you can adapt the machine software to your own application
