Inovance officially releases iFA, China's first fully integrated industrial automation software platform. iFA platform: opening a new era of intelligent manufacturing

In recent years, the scale of China's industrial software market has continued to grow, but it still faces challenges in performance, ease of use, openness and long-term stable supply in the high-end field. With its deep industry accumulation and forward-looking insight into the trend of intelligence, Inovance Technology has launched the first fully integrated industrial automation software platform in China, iFA (integrated Factory Automation), after five years of independent research and development and technical breakthroughs.

Digital integration: the ecological value of the iFA platform

The FA platform not only realizes the fully integrated development from equipment to process to production line, but also deeply integrates with the process standardization platform InoQuickPro and the digital platform Inocube to achieve seamless connection from OT (operational technology) to IT (information technology).

The iFA platform integrates design simulation, virtual debugging, production operation and other functions, and has powerful programming, monitoring and control capabilities. It is committed to achieving seamless development, implementation, monitoring and operation of the entire process from materials to finished products, from equipment to production lines. Through the IFA platform, all electronic control systems will have a complete and unified digital model, truly realizing factory-level interconnection and I0T integration, helping users to quickly and cost-effectively achieve flexible manufacturing needs such as multiple varieties, small batches, and large batches.

iFA Evolution: Full-scenario intelligent industrial control software platform

As an important part of the iFA family, today we first released and launched iFA Evolution, a full-scenario intelligent industrial control software platform, covering efficient configuration, programming, simulation and debugging functions from the execution layer to the control layer. Users can use this platform to perform various operations such as driver debugging, PLC programming, and monitoring screen development, significantly improving project development and maintenance efficiency.

iFA Evolution's key advantages

Full-scenario integration: Different from traditional PLC programming software, iFA Evolution integrates functions such as whole-line control, motion control, and process control, and supports one-click installation and OTA online upgrades.Compatible with all product development, debugging, and simulation of Inovance Technology, it provides predictive maintenance and Web fault diagnosis functions to comprehensively improve customer experience.

Open leading architecture: High real-time design significantly improves product performance, further optimizes equipment and production line quality, and supports third-party equipment access, with strong ecological scalability.

Technology autonomy and control: On the basis of 100% technology autonomy and control, customized data models that meet actual industrial scenarios can support various customer needs in the underlying technology and achieve rapid iteration and upgrade.

EVO500: The first fully autonomous controller with software and hardware

As the first heavyweight product adapted to the iFA Evolution software platform, EVO500 was launched simultaneously. It is the first controller in China with fully autonomous software and hardware, high performance, multi-function, and easy programming.

EVO500: Full-scenario application capability of industrial automation

High-precision operation and control scenario: EVO500 is equipped with a quad-core high-performance processor, supports 1ns bit operation speed, 1ms/16-axis synchronous control, supports 8 cam curves, 2000 cam key points, and meets the nano-level synchronous positioning and micro-level high-speed response of semiconductor, printing and packaging, lithium battery and other industries.

Process control scenario

EVO500 has more than 256 PID synchronous operations, meeting the complex control requirements of high-precision temperature, pressure, flow, liquid level regulation and other industries such as metallurgy, water environment, coal mining, etc.

Production line equipment development scenario

EVO500 provides drag-and-drop programming, industry process integration, multi-person synchronous development, remote diagnosis and other functions, for the high-flexibility production of automobile and consumer electronics production lines, fast switching, fast development and debugging, and achieves a 100% improvement in development efficiency.

Future Outlook: 555 Star Plan

iFA has opened the curtain of the "555 Star Plan" (5 years, 5 architectures, solving 5 industry pain points). In 2025, other members of the Inovance iFA family! New technologies and product platforms such as industrial simulation, wireless communication, T9000 touch screen, EVO800 large PLC, Hi50/80 1/0, safety PLC and safety I/0 will be launched one after another. With the continuous improvement of the iFA platform and the deepening of ecological cooperation, the "555 Star Plan" will light up a new beacon for intelligent manufacturing.
