Your Standards, All Your Languages
AI without Limits
No more choosing between AI innovation and the rigour of your standards. T-IA Connect natively generates Ladder, FBD, GRAPH, and SCL. Our XML engine transforms your requests into perfect industrial code, compliant with the IEC 61131-3 standard.
Universal AI: Beyond Simple Text
The strength of a design office lies in its ability to use the right language for the right purpose: Ladder for maintenance, FBD for process, GRAPH for sequences, and SCL for calculations. Until now, AI was confined to SCL. That is no longer the case.
Thanks to our proprietary XML Builder classes, T-IA Connect re-transcribes AI intelligence into any TIA Portal graphical language. There is no longer a 'preferred language' for AI: there is only your standard. You ask, the AI designs, and our Builders draw the native XML for you.
Total Mastery of the IEC 61131-3 Standard
All languages are now first-class citizens for AI
SCL — Structured Control Language
Algorithmic Excellence
SCL is the tool of choice for complex calculations, data processing, and communications. T-IA Connect generates optimized SCL, structured in regions and self-documented.
LAD — Ladder Diagram (Relay Logic)
The Maintenance Standard
Ladder is essential for electrical clarity. T-IA Connect generates complex Ladder networks (contacts, coils, blocks) via an XML builder that scrupulously respects your diagrams.
FBD — Function Block Diagram
The Clarity of Process Flow
For regulation (PID) and instrumentation, FBD is king. Our XML Builders automatically calculate block placement and link routing for a professional rendering.
GRAPH — Sequential Function Chart
Mastery of Machine Sequences
GRAPH is the ultimate language for machine cycles. T-IA Connect generates real GRAPH blocks with steps and transitions, preserving TIA Portal's native diagnostics.

The Engine of Universal AI
How our XML Builder classes guarantee respect for your graphical standards
The Intelligence of the XML Builder
Generating SCL is within the reach of any AI. But generating Ladder or GRAPH requires absolute mastery of the Siemens Openness XML format. T-IA Connect integrates proprietary Builder classes that translate AI instructions into valid graphical XML structures, ready for TIA Portal.
Respect for Industrial Standards
Your design office has standards. T-IA Connect respects them. By asking the AI to generate Ladder, you get code that follows the rules of the industrial art: named networks, precise comments, and consistent data structures.
Native Graphical Generation
Our algorithms don't do 'workarounds'. They calculate the exact placement of contacts in a Ladder network or the routing of links in an FBD block. The final result is indistinguishable from a block created manually by an expert, but generated in seconds.
IEC 61131-3 Compliance
Excellence comes through respect for standards. Each generated block, regardless of its language, scrupulously respects the specifications of the international standard, guaranteeing maximum portability and durability of your code.
Modernize without Compromise
The power of AI at the service of your project quality
Integrating AI into your projects should not mean a loss of control. With T-IA Connect, you remain the master of your architecture. You decide on the most appropriate language for each function, and the AI takes care of the drafting or technical drawing of the block.
This approach guarantees constant excellence: each block is documented, each variable is typed, and each graphical structure is optimized. You gain productivity while raising the quality standard of your design office.
Elevate Your Standards
Use AI to generate complex blocks that are perfectly documented and compliant with your internal standards.
Zero Entry Defects
Eliminate human typing or wiring errors by letting our XML Builders generate the exact structure.
Maximum Productivity
Free your engineers from repetitive entry tasks. They focus on design, AI on execution.
Code Longevity
By using standard XML formats and standardized languages, you guarantee the maintainability of your projects for 20 years.
Questions about Generation Quality
Does T-IA Connect favour SCL over Ladder?
Absolutely not. Our philosophy is to give you total choice. If your standards dictate Ladder for maintenance, T-IA Connect will generate high-quality native Ladder. AI is now universal and treats all languages with the same level of excellence thanks to our XML Builders.
Is the AI-generated code compliant with standards?
Yes. All generation passes through our Builder classes which apply the rules of the IEC 61131-3 standard and TIA Portal specificities. The produced XML is an official Siemens Openness exchange format, guaranteeing total compliance.
Can one really generate GRAPH with an AI?
This is one of T-IA Connect's feats. By describing your cycle to the AI, our GraphBuilder automatically constructs the sequencer structure (steps, transitions, conditions) in XML format. You get a native GRAPH block, viewable and debuggable in TIA Portal.
How do you guarantee the readability of graphical networks?
Our Builders include automatic layout algorithms. For a Ladder or FBD network, the tool calculates the optimal arrangement of elements to avoid crossings and guarantee clear reading, as if it had been designed by a senior automation engineer.
