Profile

logi.cals has been developing target-system-neu­tral graphical programming systems for the entire auto­mation industry for more than 16 years. Our product logiCAD/16 is an efficient programming tool for different PLC systems and industry PCs. It has already been sold over 9.000 times in Europe, leading the way for graphical programming systems with offline simula­tion.

At the beginning of 1993 we started the development of a new programming-device-generation , integrating our long experience and the feedback of our customers. The result is logiCAD, the object oriented project planning and programming tool, based on IEC 61131-3. To cope with the trend towards manu­facturer-neutral automation concepts, kirchner SOFT offers openPLC and RTS for logi­CAD – an IEC 61131-3 conform SoftPLC. This product is not only outstanding because of its target-platform-independence but it can also be integrated easily in any real-time operating system. Standars solutions are available for Windows NT/2000/XP/CE, VxWorks, RMX and RT Linux.

The company’s head office is in Oberwölbling, Austria. The German and Benelux market is handled by logi.cals´s subsidiary in Langenfeld. More than 40 OEM-partners in whole Europe can be named as our content customers at this time being.


Products and Services


Both range and complexity of the tasks, to be solved nowadays by using PLCs, Micro-controllers and IPCs, demand new programming methods and devices. Not only the reduction of the periods of project planning and putting-into-operation but also the long maintenance of production plants are important. Therefore, with deve­lopment of logiCAD, comfortable programming of automation tasks according to IEC 61131-3 has been considered very important and all aspects for a con­trolled project progression have been taken into ac­count.
