Integrator

Long ago, PLCs introduced software programming that mirrored traditional relay diagrams through ladder logic, allowing electrical engineers to move from complex hardwired systems to flexible, software-based control using a familiar visual language. This approach made programming accessible without requiring advanced coding skills, bridging the gap between electrical schematics and modern automation.

Today, integrating PLCs with supervising and managing IT systems is complex and often requires specialized IT knowledge. Zelo.Integrator’s user interface uses workflows similar to PLC functional blocks, empowering control engineers to manage these integrations themselves. It gives them the tools to identify and share process data directly, bridging the gap between operational technology and IT without relying solely on IT experts.

The future of OT/IT integration belongs to those who own process know-how: control engineers. They just need to be equipped with proper tools for the job.

Zelo.Integrator is an expandable digital platform, currently in prototype phase, built around data message broker, supporting various use cases within MES and SCADA domain, or manufacturing OT/IT integration scope in general:

• disparate control systems integrations

• manufacturing process quality assurance

• advanced SCADA functionalities (automated procedures, historian, ML, AI,...)

• integration of control systems with various IT systems (ERP, MES, LIMS...)

• development of bespoke SCADA and MES systems

It provides reliable transfer of large data sets, at high speeds with low latencies. 

Thanks to its ease of use, it can be utilized by various roles in manufacturing process:

• quality assurance engineers

• process technology engineers

• control system engineers

• system integrators
