Gateways

Gateways & Links enable the coupling of various Ethernet-based and serial industrial bus systems as well as access to OT networks from the IT level. They make use of existing assets and open the way for future Industrial Internet of Things use cases.

Gateways for Multi-Protocol, Field Device Access and Controller Data

OPC Classic and OPC UA

Software products such as OPC servers, OPC middleware and IT / OT integration solutions enable secure and reliable data integration – locally or into the cloud. This creates a foundation for optimizing processes and technical installations.

OPC Servers for all PLCs

PC Interface Card

PC Interface cards enable computers to access various protocols, physical layers & APIs. Our products deliver top performance by enabling pre-processing & buffering. They eliminate time consuming protocol handling, even at high network load & fast data rates.

PC Network Interfaces

Docker Container

Dockers make it easy to build and run applications using containers. The Docker-Container applications offer flexible deployment options, for example on devices running Azure IoT Edge or AWS IoT Greengrass.

Docker Containers for various systems

Industry-specific solutions to keep your business running smoothly

Aviation and aerospace solutions

Historically, aviation has been a cash-rich industry, where if one of the systems on the ground would repeatedly fail, it was upgraded or replaced. However, this is no longer the case. The travel industry has been hit hard by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and now faces a desperate need to keep moving. Replacing networks and equipment is not always going to be a viable option.

Not only can our tools diagnose where problems lie on your vital industrial networks, but we can also predict if a problem may occur so it can be fixed before a major outage occurs. Flight delays are costly both in terms of time and financial impact in the form of fines from airport operators and customer refunds or compensation.

With tools that can be used remotely and on foot around the site, plus others that sit permanently in place to analyse the current situation, our team are able to keep you flying high during even the most turbulent of times.
