AUTOMATION
Enhancing Efficiency Through Intelligent Automation
In modern industrial settings, automation is the backbone of efficiency to enable machines and processes to operate with minimal human intervention. Gateworks SBCs provide the computational power and flexibility needed to integrate with various automation systems, from programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to robotic arms. Gateworks SBCs, when combined with modules for real-time communication like cellular or Wi-Fi, allow for seamless connectivity and data exchange across the factory floor. 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 Smart Monitoring
Machine health monitoring is critical to ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of industrial equipment. Gateworks SBCs, equipped with high-precision sensors and connectivity modules, can collect and analyze data on temperature, vibration, and other critical parameters. By utilizing machine learning algorithms, these SBCs can predict potential failures before they occur, allowing for preemptive maintenance. This not only reduces downtime but also extends the lifespan of your machinery, saving time and resources.
WIRELESS SENSORS
Experience the Power of Wireless for Seamless Data Collection
Wireless sensors are essential in a smart factory to enable data collection from remote or hard-to-reach locations without the need for complex wiring. Gateworks SBCs, paired with wireless communication modules, serve as the central hub for collecting, processing, and transmitting data from these sensors. Whether monitoring environmental conditions, equipment status, or production output, wireless sensors integrated with SBCs ensure that your operations are always running at peak efficiency with real-time data at your fingertips.
SAFETY
Prioritize Workplace Safety with Intelligent Monitoring Systems
Safety is paramount in any industrial environment, and real-time monitoring can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. Gateworks SBCs can be integrated with various safety sensors and devices, such as emergency stop systems, gas detectors, and access control systems. These SBCs process data in real time and trigger automated responses or alerts when unsafe conditions are detected. By leveraging robust wireless connectivity, safety systems can communicate instantly across large facilities, ensuring that every worker and process is protected at all times.
ROBOTICS
Empower Precision and Control in Robotics
Robotics is at the heart of modern manufacturing, offering unmatched precision and efficiency. Gateworks SBCs provide the computational power needed to control robotic systems, from simple pick-and-place arms to complex autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). These SBCs, when integrated with high-speed networking and real-time processing modules, ensure that robots 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 seamlessly 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 Gateworks modules for Wi-Fi, cellular, and Ethernet connectivity, factories can ensure that all systems are interconnected, data is transmitted securely, and operations remain synchronized. This network infrastructure supports the scalability and flexibility needed to adapt to changing industrial demands.
ASSET TRACKING
Keep Track of Your Assets with Precision and Ease
In complex industrial environments, keeping track of assets is crucial for operational efficiency. Gateworks SBCs, combined with GPS and wireless communication modules, offer comprehensive asset tracking solutions. 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 the factory.
