INGEAR is a world leading developer and publisher of software tools and components for industrial & manufacturing applications. Since 1993, INGEAR has provided high quality run-time free communication tools and components for Visual Studio programmers and developers. Today, INGEAR software is relied on world-wide by manufacturers, system integrators, and end users for process and machine control, data acquisition and HMI/ SCADA applications that serve all segments of industrial automation.
INGEAR software provides direct access to the controller memory, data bases, I/O and communications, letting Visual Studio developers obtain the information they need from the factory floor, process it in a PC, and send commands back to the device for control. The software does not require third-party components, drivers, APIs or tools such as OPC Servers. This approach, in contrast to proprietary PLC supplier solutions, is a dramatic improvement for machine builders and end users in that INGEAR completely eliminates costly runtime fees applied to deployed application.
INGEAR supports Visual Studio 2005-2017. Applications developed with INGEAR can run on 64 and 32-bit Windows XP to Windows 10, Windows Server 2000 or later, Windows 10 IoT Core devices such as Raspberry PI, Windows Compact Framework and Windows Embedded, as well as Linux with Mono Framework.
