Crealizer’s real-time control capabilities make it a versatile solution for users across industries. It can simplify complex tasks such as overriding PLC systems, enabling advanced process control logic, and testing applications for shorter commissioning times. Its analytics and anomaly detection functions improve uptime and reliability, ensuring optimal system performance.

For validation, Crealizer allows engineers to simulate and test new applications virtually, mitigating risks and enabling smooth, rapid implementation. This software-based validation process ensures full optimisation for real hardware conditions. When it comes to realisation, Crealizer empowers users to create and integrate customised solutions directly within ABB drive systems. Engineers can also explore ABB’s online platform to discover and reuse existing solutions or share their own.

Advantages that Redefine Drive Systems

Crealizer introduces a level of flexibility and efficiency that benefits businesses in multiple ways. It enables faster time-to-market by reducing dependence on firmware release cycles, while also lowering costs by minimising the need for additional controllers. Quality testing and prototyping become more straightforward, reducing deployment risks and accelerating implementation.

The platform’s collaborative potential is another standout feature, allowing domain experts to co-create solutions for challenging system-level problems. By leveraging ABB’s pre-built applications, engineers can achieve remarkable system-level efficiencies. Enhanced cybersecurity ensures equipment and data security through app authentication, while custom fieldbus and OPC UA data models simplify data interoperability and system integration.

Engineers also benefit from the platform’s coding versatility, which supports the PLC standard IEC 61131, high-level languages like C++, and model-based programming with tools such as MATLAB Simulink.

Real-World Applications with Tangible Benefits

Crealizer’s transformative potential extends to real-world applications, providing measurable improvements in energy efficiency, system upgrades, and maintenance. For instance, engineers can implement no-load detection for conveyors, enabling energy savings by reducing waste. Replacing ageing drives is possible without altering overriding PLC systems, streamlining the upgrade process.

Advanced energy management solutions become feasible with Crealizer, offering faster reaction times and enhanced precision. Automated test sequences allow for machine tuning, while real-time motor efficiency monitoring optimises system performance. Additionally, Crealizer’s anomaly detection in drive cooling systems enables predictive maintenance, minimising downtime and ensuring reliability.
