Dear Expert and Pro.
i work with Siemens PLC along time. but i didn't know about history development of Siemens PLC.
Can you tell me about that or some document and video.
Thank you so much

The evolution of automation is closely tied to the development of electronics and microelectronics. It began 50 years ago with pure hardware solutions, wired circuits and control systems. This was followed by the period of oftware orientation and programming, which in the last decade, the era of communication and information, finally led to the concept of Totally Integrated Automation.

If the mark left by development at the beginning was due to the implementation of what was technically feasible, today it is the opinion of the user that is the decisive factor. "What functions and interfaces must programmable controllers offer in order to fulfill the demands of multi-networked technical applications of widely varied complexity?"

The story told in this book therefore extends from the beginning of Simatic, the world’s most successful programmable controller family, to today’s state-of-the-art technology, enhanced by specific solution examples and a brief look into the future.
