Efficient manufacturing with our IIoT platform

In the age of Industry 4.0, connectivity is necessary to realising the full potential of your production capabilities.

With our moneo configure tool and our IIoT connectors and edge devices, we bridge the gap between devices in production and our IIoT platform. This enables us to smoothly collect, analyse and evaluate data from your industrial plants.

Installing the device

Seamless integration of sensors and devices

Our IIoT platform makes it easier to integrate different sensors. With moneo configure, you simplify the parameter setting, calibration and management of your sensors and ensure data integrity and accuracy. We provide you with ready-made libraries and drivers for common sensor types, so that you don't have to do your own programming and the integration time is much shorter.

Data transmission

Reliable and efficient data acquisition

Our IIoT connector allows IO-Link devices and vibration measurement units to be integrated with minimal effort. The IIoT connector creates a connection to a wide range of industrial devices, regardless of their communication protocols or manufacturer’s specifications.

Whether you work with traditional fieldbuses, Ethernet-based protocols or modern IIoT standards such as IO-Link, our connectors will ensure that data from the devices in your production plants is transferred to your IIoT platform efficiently and reliably.

IO-Link – the gateway to advanced automation

Our connector supports IO-Link, the groundbreaking industrial communication protocol specifically developed for the direct integration of intelligent sensors and actuators into our IIoT platform. IO-Link offers diverse benefits:

  • Simplified wiring: Connect your existing fieldbuses and IIoT systems using the Y path and simplify wiring and installation.
  • Increased data security: Protect your sensitive data with IO-Link’s secure communication mechanisms.
  • Improved scalability: Effortlessly connect a large number of devices to our IIoT platform.

Data processing

Unlock the power of data analytics

Our edge gateways offer pre-processing and aggregation of data before it reaches the cloud or on-premises systems. This pre-processing ensures that only relevant and useful data is sent to the central platform, reducing traffic on the network and improving overall data processing efficiency.

 

Enhanced data quality and lower costs

By enabling data to be pre-processed at the edge gateway, our gateways eliminate the need for costly cloud operations. This keeps cloud computing costs low, particularly for companies with high data volumes.
