Remote Machines Monitoring
Business Challenge
Recently, the concept of Industry 4.0 has gained significant attention. This is due to the rise of technologies like the IIoT and M2M connections, which are connecting various devices and systems. This brings us closer to the practical applications of Industry 4.0. The main idea is to establish a strong global network that connects tens or even hundreds of machines located all over the world. The goal is to simplify remote access and configuration, making it more convenient for engineers who would otherwise need to travel long distances for routine tasks.
Technical Requirements:
- Should support 4G LTE with Dual SIM for reliable backup.
- Offer various interfaces, including serial and Ethernet ports, for easy connection with equipment like PLCs.
- Must be rugged, and capable of withstanding challenging conditions, such as high temperatures and vibrations.
