Features
Connect shop floor assets easily with a streamlined approach
Utilize standardized templates and a central control center to simplify the connection of shop floor assets. By reducing complexity in the connectivity process, signal interpretations (business logic) can be stored in a library for easy reuse.
Scale machine connectivity quickly via cloud for a fast time to value
Configure and manage connections centrally via the cloud, with signal interpretation based on the common IEC standard. Develop templates and store them in a library to connect the same types of machines faster.
Create resilient data streams through clustering
The connectivity solution provides you a stable, consistent, and resilient data supply. In the event of a network fault, data is buffered and not lost. If hardware malfunctions, redundant components take over in real-time through cluster technology, ensuring worry-free operation.
