Softing Industrial Acquires Delta Logic Automatisierungstechnik GmbH
Softing Industrial expands its automation portfolio with Delta Logic’s PC-to-PLC and OPC UA solutions.
(PresseBox) - Softing Industrial Automation GmbH has acquired 100% of the shares in Delta Logic Automatisierungstechnik GmbH, based in Schwäbisch Gmünd, effective April 11, 2025. With this acquisition, Softing Industrial strengthens its position as a leading provider of communication solutions for industrial automation and expands its portfolio with powerful products for PC-to-PLC communication.
Portfolio Expansion Through Delta Logic
Delta Logic brings extensive expertise in communication between PC-based systems and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to Softing Industrial. A particular focus is on software solutions based on OPC UA – the globally leading technology for cross-system data exchange between products from different manufacturers.
Delta Logic’s core product portfolio includes:
ACCON AGLink: A powerful communication library enabling fast and flexible data exchange between PCs and Siemens controllers such as S7, S5, SINUMERIK, and LOGO! The software supports various operating systems and programming languages, offering advanced features like data access, diagnostics, and time synchronization.
ACCON NetLink PRO compact: A compact communication and programming adapter for connecting PCs with S7 or SINUMERIK controllers. Supporting MPI (Multipoint Interface), PPI (Point-to-Point Interface), and PROFIBUS, the adapter also enables TCP/IP connectivity – making it ideal for remote access via the internet, intranet, or dial-up routers.
ACCON OPC UA Server: A certified OPC UA server for accessing Siemens S7 PLCs and SINUMERIK machine tool controllers. This server supports optimized data blocks and enables standardized communication in Industry 4.0 environments.
These solutions perfectly complement Softing Industrial’s strategic core business and open up new growth opportunities in the field of industrial data communication.
Integration into Softing Industrial Automation GmbH by Early 2026
As of April 11, 2025, the management of Delta Logic Automatisierungstechnik GmbH has been assumed by Thomas Hilz and Thomas Rummel, the joint Managing Directors of Softing Industrial. Full integration into the Softing Industrial organization is planned for the end of 2025. At that point, the Delta Logic brand will also be fully migrated, with all products and solutions operating under the name Softing Industrial going forward.
