AUTOMATION
Enhancing Efficiency Through Intelligent Automation on the Edge
Gateworks SBCs provide the computational power and flexibility needed to integrate with various automation systems, from programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to robotic arms. Paired with Wi-Fi, cellular, Bluetooth etc. they enable real-time communication and seamless connectivity across a smart factory, ensuring continuous performance optimization. This ensures that automation systems can respond to real-time data, adapt to changing conditions, and optimize performance continuously.
MACHINE HEALTH
Proactively Maintain Equipment with Real-Time Monitoring
Paired with high-precision sensors and connectivity modules, Gateworks SBCs can collect and analyze data on temperature, vibration, and other critical parameters to ensure optimal performance of industrial equipment. By utilizing machine learning algorithms, one can predict potential failures before they occur, allowing for preemptive maintenance. This not only reduces downtime but also extends the lifespan of machinery, saving time and resources.
WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
Collect and Process Data on the Edge Seamlessly
Gateworks SBCs act as central hubs for real-time edge computing, collecting and processing data from wireless sensors monitoring environmental conditions, equipment or production output. Combined with IoT modules, these systems ensure peak operational efficiency and instant data access.
SAFETY SYSTEMS
Prioritize Workplace Safety with Intelligent Monitoring Systems
Integrated with emergency stop systems, gas detectors, and access control devices, Gateworks SBCs trigger automated responses at the edge to hazardous conditions. By leveraging wireless connectivity, safety systems can communicate instantly across large facilities to ensure every worker and process is protected at all times.
ROBOTICS
Empower Precision and Control in Robotics
The computational power needed to control robotic systems, from simple pick-and-place arms to complex autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) can be managed by a Gateworks SBC. When integrated with high-speed networking and real-time edge processing, robots can be enabled to operate with precise control, adapt to dynamic environments and execute tasks with minimal latency. This level of integration makes it possible to scale robotic operations across various industrial applications.
NETWORKING
Build a Reliable, Scalable Network for Operations
A strong network is the foundation of any smart factory, enabling all devices, sensors, and systems to communicate effectively. Gateworks SBCs are designed to serve as central nodes in these networks, providing high-speed connectivity through wired and wireless options. By leveraging modules for Wi-Fi, cellular, and Ethernet connectivity, factories can ensure all systems are interconnected, data is transmitted securely and operations remain synchronized.
ASSET TRACKING
Keep Track of Assets with Precision and Ease
A Gateworks SBC, combined with GPS and wireless communication modules, offer comprehensive asset-tracking solutions for complex industrial efficiency. Whether tracking the location of mobile equipment, inventory, or even personnel, SBCs can provide real-time data that ensures assets are always where they need to be. This visibility helps in optimizing workflows, reducing losses and improving overall resource management within a smart factory.
