ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE COVER STORY USING DATA TO YOUR ADVANTAGE
Technology is changing industry at a speed never seen before. The Internet of Things is connecting us closer to machines, sensors, instruments and production facilities, giving us the ability to gather information, analyse and use data in a way never seen before.
To handle and manage this new era of connectivity and embrace the opportunities that IoT brings to its customers, Murrelektronik offers a unique solution – its own cloud service
and the compact control cabinet component ‘Nexogate’ serving as an interface to the cloud. Enabling industry 4.0 with powerful security and manageable costs.
THE MURRELEKTRONIK CLOUD IS HERE, AND IT’S IDEAL FOR USING MACHINE AND PLANT DATA SMARTLY.
M
urrelektronik’s cloud service is unique because data from control and I/O components in machines and systems are transferred directly to
the cloud. This makes access easy and uncomplicated, using any device, regardless of location. Data is transmitted via an encrypted communication path, in real time, either using GSM or a network. The Murrelektronik Cloud provides users with an easy-to-use dashboard
that displays all the important data, flexibly and according to your requirements. This provides the machine and system operators with a full range of important information at a glance. This information can be used for process analysis, and also as a tool for predictive maintenance. When problematic conditions arise during the production process
the speed of response is crucial to contain the situation and avoid expensive downtimes. Prepare for these conditions in advance by setting threshold values for key figures in the dashboard. If the figures are outside of the defined minimum or maximum limits, an email or encrypted message is sent directly to the user's cell phone, allowing them to quickly react to the situation.
FUNCTIONS AT A GLANCE: • Cloud connectivity via mobile communication
• Data from the controller can be directly transferred to the cloud via OPC connection
• The data are transferred along an encrypted communication path.
Nexogate - Data
USER ADVANTAGES: • View and monitor data (in real time) via secure log in. • Implement short-term and cost-effective maintenance measures • Optimise machines and increase machine availability • Analyse and improve processes • Tools for predictive maintenance • Remote monitoring • eSIM card for worldwide use • Independent from the IT infrastructure • Avoid costly travel time for maintenance personnel • Multiple use levels defined by admin.
Transfer Made Easy
MURRELEKTRONIK’S NEXOGATE DEVICE IS YOUR INTERFACE BETWEEN THE CLOUD AND THE INDUSTRIAL FIELD. The device carrying the data from the industrial field into the cloud is Murrelektronik’s nexogate. The compact control cabinet component is integrated into the communication system (Ethernet or PROFINET) and transmits data via the mobile network to the Murrelektronik Cloud. The advantage of this method is that the transfer takes place independent of the IT-infrastructure. If relevant, users can still also transfer information via the LAN connection into their own cloud system.
