Insights
Free, unified design tool for Micro800 controllers should lower development friction and speed small-system deployments.
Rockwell Automation's release of FactoryTalk Design Workbench provides a unified programming, configuration and troubleshooting workspace for Micro800 controllers, removing the need to juggle fragmented tools for compact automation projects. The software is free and Version 1 explicitly supports Micro810 and newer Micro800 Lx0E controllers, which should shorten onboarding by offering a consistent Logix-like environment and improved download and online workflows.
Adoption depends on actual interoperability and the roadmap for broader device coverage; the announcement states future versions will expand beyond Micro800 and that annual updates are expected, which creates a clear upgrade path but leaves timing and scope unspecified. Key monitorable items include availability on Rockwell's Product Compatibility & Downloads Center now, hands-on sessions at the Automation Fair scheduled
New software simplifies programming and configuration for Micro800 controllers
FactoryTalk Design Workbench software gives machine builders and manufacturers working on compact, standalone systems a consistent and efficient way to develop automation solutions. Companies in packaging, water and wastewater, agriculture and material handling often face long development cycles, fragmented tools and limited flexibility. The new software streamlines the process from programming to deployment while supporting multiple devices at once to simplify system management.
Key features in version 1 capabilities include:
- Modern design environment with a consistent Logix experience for faster onboarding
- Improved download speed and online workflows for greater efficiency
- Multi-device support for Micro810® and newer Micro800 Lx0E controllers allowing easy access to multiple controllers at the same time to simplify troubleshooting
"FactoryTalk Design Workbench software is our next-generation design environment for micro control systems, delivering a productive, more reliable and familiar experience for users of Rockwell Automation products," says Wan Shan Loo, product manager at Rockwell Automation.
