Nexto Series
1. Product Description
Nexto Xpress is a powerful compact Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) part of Nexto Series family of controllers and
I/O modules. Nexto Xpress delivers high-speed processing power in a compact design with embedded I/O. There are several
options to choose from, allowing the best solution for entry-level applications.
This product portfolio targets small control systems, offering models containing from a few digital inputs and outputs up
to options with 43 I/O points concentrated in a single controller, including analog inputs and outputs with temperature support
(RTD sensors). In case of additional I/O needs, the system can be easily expanded using expansion modules (see section
Related
Products). Additionally, the number of I/O points can be further expanded through remote (distributed) I/O devices
communicating via protocols such as CANopen, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET and MODBUS.
Nexto Xpress is suitable for small applications and remote distributed I/O. It may be applied in verticals such as infrastruc-
ture, building automation, water, wastewater, food, textiles, factory automation, machines and several other OEM solutions,
including motion control applications. The inclusion of an integrated firewall provides enhanced protection and security for
the systems, safeguarding data integrity and mitigating potential cyber threats. Additionally, the controller is an ideal solution
for complementing big applications along with Nexto Series portfolio, extending the range of applications using the same
technology and engineering environment. This is a great advantage for OEMs and systems integrators with needs of small to
large applications.
