CTOPUS is an R&D / Pilot line dedicated tool, our main goal is to allow researchers to master all needed parameters in « manual mode » or « automatic mode ». Moreover, thanks to our clever software design, it is easy to update software, PLC I/O's, software security and hardware configuration according to customers needs.
ne of our main concern while developing automation solutions is the security. All our process development tools contain a double stage security. First stage, Hardware Security PLC which is dedicated to security of humans and critical hardware. Second stage, Software security allowing or not users to activate valves, pumps, MFC, Power, Robot... Of course, for the sake of usability, both security stages can be disabled with administrative passwords to allow authorized personal to do maintenance.
ur automation software team developed our control software in close collaboration with end-users and researchers to fit their requirements in terms of usability, flexibility, security, easy-access for non-specialist operators (1. load your process recipe, 2. Press “Play” button, 3. wait for process to be completed). Our user interface is developed to be controlled with a touchscreen monitor which make even more comfortable the control of the different devices.
