Networker between sensors and IT

Here, the raw data from the sensors must be processed in order to generate the corresponding information for Industry 4.0 applications. The powerful device works with a 1.2 GHz quad-core processor and thus offers sufficient computing power for this task. The die-cast aluminum housing is designed for use in harsh industrial environments and complies with protection class IP 65. Even high temperatures are not a problem - the hardware can withstand ambient temperatures of up to 60 ° C without reducing the computing power.

A 12.3-inch display with touch control is integrated as a user interface. Alternatively, a web server is available to the user for configuring the device. Since the device has two separate network ports, the system network and the IT infrastructure can be operated separately from one another. This ensures a high level of security for the sensitive machine data. The Edge Gateway can transmit the recorded and processed data directly to the most popular cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and Cumulocity.
