FX3 Series General Information

It is now over 25 years since Mitsubishi Electric launched the first compact programmable logic controller. Since then Mitsubishi Electric has become the world market leader in this sector, with over 8 million of its compact controller installations to its credit.

Compact controllers have opened up new perspectives in industrial automation due to their compact dimensions and low cost. Many applications for which automation was once not even an option can now benefit from the many advantages of these controllers.
