The CODESYS Group

CODESYS is used in more than 1 million machines and systems worldwide. This makes us the market leader for hardware-independent control software in the field of industrial automation. To keep it that way, more than 200 employees work on the development and marketing of CODESYS at our offices in Kempten, Boston, Beijing, and Milan.

The Documentation team is all about clarity, structure, and knowledge transfer. We make sure our external users understand how to get the most out of CODESYS with web help that includes reference info, concept documentation, and tutorials. We don't just develop content, but also the right concepts for clear and accessible documentation. In addition, we take care of the localization of our software and documentation so that our products are understandable worldwide.
