Online PLC Configuration Tool

PLCCreator is free online tool that transforms your IO list into PLC configuration in minutes.

Perfect for:

Automation Engineers Control Designers Project Managers

Key Features:

PLC Hardware Configuration

Generates a hardware setup in seconds, selecting the exact power, communication, and IO modules based on your IO list - delivering exactly what is required.

Tag Generation

Automatically converts your IO list into a complete tag database with proper addressing, eliminating manual entry errors and saving hours of work.

Industry-Standard Output

Export configurations in .aml, .xml, .l5k, .csv and other formats for seamless import into your preferred PLC software platform .

Ideal for Greenfield Projects

PLCCreator is really powerful when designing control systems from scratch. Quickly generate complete PLC configurations based on your Instrument Index , Instrument IO List , or similar project documentation.

Key Benefits:

Error Elimination

Remove all IO signal discrepancies between EPLAN and PLC projects, saving significant time during Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT).

Reduced Coordination

Drastically reduce coordination meetings between automation and electrical teams with automatically synchronized projects.

Project Acceleration Impact

This synchronized approach enables parallel work: Electrical teams can design cabinets while automation teams develop logic - saving days or weeks depending on project scale.

Streamlined PLC Creation

Create complete PLC configurations in just 7 simple steps grouped into three intuitive phases:

1

Preparation

Analyze the project and prepare IO list in the required format

2

Generation

Automatic hardware configuration and tag generation

3

Import

Download and import into your PLC software platform

Complete hardware configurations in minutes, even for projects with hundreds of signals

Flexible PLC Architectures

Supporting all common industrial PLC configurations, from simple single-rack to complex distributed systems.

Single Rack Architecture

Single Rack

Compact systems with all IO modules in one chassis. Ideal for small to medium applications with centralized control requirements.

View details →
Standard Fieldbus Architecture

Single Fieldbus

Distributed IO systems with main rack and remote IO racks connected via single fieldbus network. Perfect for medium-sized applications with distributed devices.

View details →
Multi-Fieldbus Architecture

Multiple Fieldbuses

Complex systems with multiple remote IO racks across different fieldbus networks. Designed for large-scale applications with diverse communication requirements.

View details →

All architectures include automatic selection of IO modules, power supplies, communication modules, fieldbus interface modules and rack chassis.

Asset-Oriented Programming

PLCCreator implements robust support for PLC Asset-Oriented Programming (AOP) to take your projects to the next level.

How It Works:

  1. Provide Device IO List - Using library blocks from My Asset Libraries
  2. Select Assets - Choose programming assets on the Asset Objects page
  3. Receive Complete Project - Within 24 hours, you will get a PLC project with instantiated assets and exact IO signal assignments

Asset Library

A collection of pre-built, reusable components (blocks, AOIs, routines) that simplify development and ensure code quality through:

Reliability

Productivity

Modularity

Code Reuse

This powerful feature can save hundreds of engineering hours while ensuring consistent, reliable automation code.

Smart Rack Configuration

PLCCreator automatically optimizes rack layouts based on your physical constraints and project requirements.

Key Rack Parameters:

Module Count

Maximum modules per rack

Rack Width

Physical cabinet width constraints

Power Budget

Total power consumption limits

When any constraint is exceeded, PLCCreator automatically creates a new rack configuration.

Ideal For:

  • Large projects with many I/O points
  • Installations with limited cabinet space
  • Projects requiring precise power distribution
