CODESYS System Partner in India
Primionics supports CODESYS-based machine and automation projects in India with application architecture, runtime and hardware selection, IEC 61131-3 engineering, device and fieldbus integration, visualization and system integration.
Hardware-independent control engineering with CODESYS
The platform combines control programming, device configuration, fieldbus communication, visualization, debugging and libraries, with extensions for motion, CNC, robotics and safety-oriented architectures.
Runtime options span conventional SoftPLC and virtualized control. CODESYS Automation Server adds centralized management and monitoring, while newer web-based engineering technologies extend the platform toward browser-oriented workflows.

CODESYS Development System
IEC 61131-3 engineering environment with editors, compiler, debugging, libraries and device configuration. It combines application logic, device configuration, communication, visualisation, debugging and library management within one project.
View productsCODESYS Control Runtime
Hardware-independent controller runtime for x86, ARM, Windows, Linux and embedded platforms. Runtime variants allow IEC 61131-3 control to be deployed on supported industrial PCs, embedded boards and controller platforms.
View productsCODESYS Virtual Control
Device-independent virtual PLC technology for containerised and IT-integrated control architectures. Virtual PLC instances separate control software from dedicated hardware and support centrally managed automation architectures.
View productsCODESYS Visualization
Integrated HMI and web visualization for panels, PCs, browsers and remote operation. The same project data can drive local panels, web clients and remote displays while remaining linked to the controller application.
View productsCODESYS Motion + CNC + Robotics
PLCopen motion, CNC interpolation, cams and robot kinematics within the engineering system. Motion libraries and kinematic functions support positioning, coordinated axes, CNC paths and robotic mechanisms.
View productsCODESYS Safety
Safety software products for supported EtherCAT and virtual safety-control architectures. Safety products extend the engineering environment for supported certified architectures that combine standard and safety-related control.
View productsDefine runtime, communication and machine architecture first
Target hardware & runtime
Identify processor architecture, operating system, real-time expectations and whether the project requires a device runtime, SoftPLC or virtual control deployment.
Fieldbus & device integration
Define EtherCAT, PROFINET, CANopen, Modbus, OPC UA or other communication requirements together with the available device descriptions and I/O architecture.
Visualization & lifecycle
Decide whether visualization runs on the controller, a panel, PC or browser and how projects, devices, updates and remote access will be managed over the machine lifecycle.
Motion & safety scope
Establish axis count, kinematics, drive interfaces and safety requirements early because these choices affect runtime capability, certified architecture and engineering effort.
Automation architectures built with CODESYS
OEM machine control
Build reusable IEC 61131-3 applications across supported controllers and industrial PCs while retaining a consistent engineering, library and diagnostics workflow.
Industrial HMI & web visualization
Create operator interfaces linked directly to controller variables, alarms and application logic for panels, PCs and browser-based visualization.
Motion, CNC & robotics
Coordinate axes, kinematics, cams and CNC motion within the same engineering environment used for PLC logic and machine-state control.
Virtual & safety-oriented control
Deploy virtual PLC architectures and supported safety products where hardware abstraction, centralized deployment or certified safety functionality is required.
CODESYS technical FAQs
What is CODESYS used for?
CODESYS is used to engineer and execute industrial control applications using IEC 61131-3, with additional capabilities for visualization, communication, motion, robotics, safety and controller management.
What does Primionics provide as a CODESYS System Partner?
Primionics supports application architecture, runtime and hardware selection, device and communication integration, IEC 61131-3 engineering, visualization and system-integration activities in India.
Can CODESYS run on industrial PCs and ARM platforms?
CODESYS Control runtimes are available for multiple supported x86 and ARM platforms and operating systems. The exact runtime must be matched to the target hardware and deployment model.
What is CODESYS Virtual Control?
Virtual Control separates PLC execution from a dedicated physical PLC and runs controller instances on supported containerized platforms, enabling software-defined control architectures.
Does CODESYS support SIL 3 safety?
CODESYS offers certified safety products for supported architectures, including Virtual Safe Control SL certified for IEC 61508 SIL 3. Safety capability must be implemented within the applicable certified architecture.
Can CODESYS integrate HMI, motion and PLC logic in one project?
Yes. CODESYS provides integrated visualization and Motion CNC Robotics capabilities that can be engineered alongside the controller application, subject to the selected runtime and licenses.
