Open Web Automation (OWA): How logi.cals Reinvents the World of PLC Programming and Engineering

"Never Touch a Running System" is still a central unwritten law in machine and plant engineering. Once an application operates, function and programming are changed as little as possible. This is however no longer up-to-date, as companies with this approach in the automation and engineering process are increasingly lagging behind the requirements for flexibility, time-to-market and quality. Dynamizing the adaptation of the programming of a machine or plant to new tasks requires innovative engineering tools and environments. Open Web Automation (OWA) is logi.cals' answer as a flexible and dynamically evolving automation system that guides the user: from the plant model to configuration, engineering, automated testing, simulation, visualization and beyond. Supporting numerous open standards such as OPC UA, Automation ML or the IEC61131 languages, OWA is the platform for open automation applications.

OWA is a modular cloud architecture, which with its browser-based core components, numerous modules and interfaces also meets the requirements of OEMs. The platform contains the powerful development tool logi.CAD 3, that empowers users to work with state-of-the-art PLC programming tools. logi.CAD 3 leaves free choice regarding the programming language: The user can chose between the IEC 61131 languages or high-level languages such as C, C++ or Python. Collaborative development or scaling applications from single up to millions of I/Os in distributed architectures are no problems for logi.CAD 3. OWA in the cloud enables the browser-based development of safety applications, without having to go through time-consuming certification processes again and again.

Michael Plankensteiner, CEO of logi.cals explains: "Today it is important to rely on a platform, that is capable of easily and efficiently improving functions, we don‘t even know yet". OWA provides tools to develop these new functions, similar to updating an app for a smartphone, and to integrate them into the automation application without hesitation.

OWA provides developers with tools that are optimized for the use in a constantly changing world. For suppliers of automation components and systems, OWA represents a valid alternative to a proprietary solution of their own, because with OWA they count on a modern architecture based on the latest technologies significantly reducing the time-to-market.

AI: The New Insider Threat Facing Organizations25.2.2026 09:00:00 CET | Press release

Thales 2026 Data Threat Report Finds 70% of Organizations Rank AI as Top Data Security Risk As AI systems gain broader access to enterprise data across environments, organizations must treat data visibility and encryption as core security elements. AI-enabled deepfakes and misinformation are increasing the effectiveness of identity-based attacks. Today, credential theft is the leading attack technique against cloud infrastructure (67%). Nearly 60% of companies report deepfake-driven incidents, and 48% experience damage from AI-generated misinformation Investment in AI security is growing, with 30% of companies allocating dedicated budgets; however, 53% are still relying on existing security budget According to the Thales 2026 Data Threat Report, organizations across various markets including automotive, energy, finance and retail say the rapid pace of AI-driven transformation is now their biggest security challenge. Based on the report’s research, conducted by S&P Global 451 Research,

Industrial Decarbonization: Calderion, WenCo and Terravent Invest in Graforce to Scale Plasma Pyrolysis Globally25.2.2026 08:07:00 CET | Press release

The investor consortium comprising the Paris-based Next Generation Fuels Industrial & Technological fund Calderion (Audacia), alongside infrastructure developer Terravent and WenCo Family Office, announces the closing of a strategic double-digit million-euro financing round for Berlin-based Graforce GmbH. The investment is dedicated to the industrial scale-up of Graforce’s proprietary plasma pyrolysis technology, addressing the growing global demand for cost-efficient low-carbon hydrogen, syngas, and carbon removal solutions that are compatible with existing industrial infrastructures. Disruptive alternative to conventional processes Graforce’s technology aims at replacing CO₂-intensive legacy routes such as steam reforming and classical gasification. By applying plasma to methane, biogas, flare gas, and landfill gas, the process converts these streams into their valuable molecular components instead of emitting them. The result is a high-efficiency production of clean hydrogen and syn
