Tired of “Almost” Automation? Your Compact Machine Deserves a Smarter Brain.
Feeling the pinch? You’re managing a high-mix production line, a complex packaging system, or a sensitive test rig. Your old controller is holding you back: adding a new sensor feels like a puzzle, connecting to a SCADA system is a headache, and making precise motion adjustments? Forget about it. You’re not just building machines; you’re solving problems. And your PLC shouldn’t be one of them.
Meet the Game-Changer: SIMATIC S7-1200 CPU 1215C (6ES7215-1AG40-0XB0). This isn’t just another PLC. It’s the all-in-one automation toolbox engineered to give you more capability, right from the start.
Your Built-in Advantage: The 1215C’s Ready-to-Use Configuration
Forget about bare-bones controllers that need immediate add-ons. The 1215C ships as a complete control center, packed with features that solve common design challenges:
- The “Out-of-the-Box Ready” I/O Suite:
- 14 Digital Inputs (24V DC): Connect push buttons, sensors, and switches immediately.
- 10 Relay Outputs: Directly drive contactors, valves, and indicators (AC/DC loads), eliminating intermediary relays.
- 2 Analog Inputs & 2 Analog Outputs: Process signals from temperature, pressure, or flow sensors (0-10V/0-20mA) and command analog actuators without buying a separate module. This alone saves cost and space on Day 1.
- The “Seamless Integration” Network Engine:
- Dual Integrated PROFINET Ports: This is your key to simplicity. One port connects your HMI for real-time visualization. The other creates a high-speed network for drives, I/O stations, and plant IT systems—all concurrently, without external switches. It’s native, fast, and reduces points of failure.
- The “Built-for-Motion” Pulse Core:
- 4 High-Speed Pulse Outputs (100 kHz): Directly command stepper or servo drives for precise positioning, speed, and synchronization. You get machine-grade motion control capabilities integrated, avoiding the cost and complexity of an extra motion card.
- The “Grows with You” Scalable Architecture:
- +8 Signal Modules / +3 Communication Modules: Started with the onboard I/O? Expand effortlessly. Add specialized analog, digital, or communication modules (like RS485 for Modbus) as your machine evolves. One platform covers your entire project lifecycle.
- The “Engineer-Friendly” Software Experience:
- Powered by TIA Portal: Configure hardware, write logic (Ladder, SCL, FBD), and design HMI screens in one unified, drag-and-drop software environment. This cuts engineering time drastically and makes future modifications simple and risk-free.
Don’t Just Take Our Word For It. See It in Action:
- A packaging OEM used the onboard analog I/O for weigh cells and pulse outputs for a filler servo, cutting commissioning time by 40%.
- A water treatment integrator leveraged the relay outputs and robust design (-20°C to 60°C) for compact, reliable pump control stations across remote sites.
