The industrial automation market has overwhelmingly accepted the value of outfitting machinery with remote access technologies. As more and more machine builders implement remote access solutions, it becomes clear that the next step in functionality is to implement remote data services.
For many machine builders, the thought of integrating an edge gateway into their machine seems to be a major investment in time, energy, and money. The good news for those who prefer to focus on their core application rather than learning the details of MQTT, X.509 certificates, Azure, HTTPS, OPC UA, etc, is that there are many resources available to prepare for IIoT connectivity without starting from scratch. HMS Industrial Networks has invested in developing products which make implementing these technologies quick, easy, secure, and cost-effective.
Read through the infographic below to learn how Machine builders can leverage the Ewon Flexy to equip their system with the same remote access capabilities provided by Ewon Cosy and make the system IIoT ready. In other words, with a couple hours of configuration, machine builders can have secure access to the data on their machine!
