For decades, PLCs have been the gold standard in industrial automation — robust, reliable and purpose-built to control everything from factory machinery to building systems. But in today’s connected world, many engineers are asking: what if PLC automation could be easier?
In our recent article, we explore how the automation landscape is shifting away from proprietary, closed systems toward open platforms, free development tools and zero licensing barriers — without sacrificing industrial-grade reliability.
The EQSP32 PLC was built to support that shift — bringing together:
- An open development environment (Arduino IDE).
- Built-in wireless and wired communication (Wi-Fi, BLE, RS-485, CAN and more).
- Seamless integration with IoT platforms like DashIO, Home Assistant and Node-RED.
- A scalable hardware design with up to 166 I/Os and dedicated modules for PT100 sensors, thermocouples and other niche applications.
