Electra Cloud allows users to collaborate on their drawings with team members located anywhere in the world in real-time, with a browser and no additional software required.

The software unlocks the data typically siloed in individual coordinate measuring machines (CMM) to provide real-time insight into the performance, use and status of multiple CMMs across one or several sites.

The Plantweb Insight Network Management application provides continuous, centralized monitoring of WirelessHART networks. The Plantweb Insight Power Module Management application drills down to the device level, allowing facilities to keep their wireless devices appropriately powered so they can continuously transmit key monitoring data.

The solution can be accessed from the Beckhoff website with a web browser and requires no additional software. In addition, TwinCAT Cloud Engineering enables registered users to work with the TwinCAT development environment even from previously unsupported devices, such as tablets.

By combining OPC UA and IO-Link, Pepperl+Fuchs has opened up possibilities for end-to- end, transparent, communication from the lowest field level to the cloud.

Register with EPLAN ePulse, then open a project, select the tasks and, at the click of a mouse, the software configures schematics based on EPLAN Electric P8 or fluid power schematics based on EPLAN Fluid.

TOSIBOX Lock for Container is a software-only solution comparable to Tosibox’s previous hardware TOSIBOX Lock products. It enables users to integrate Linux-based IPCs, HMIs, PLCs, controllers or other devices into their TOSIBOX ecosystem and provide secure VPN connectivity to the host device where it is installed, and access to the LAN side devices connected to the host.

Lanner and Dispersive Networks have tested and validated an integrated solution that combines Lanner’s universal CPE equipment and Dispersive Networks’ flexible NFV and Container-based SD-WAN programmable networking software.

EXOR has designed the product range as Industrial IoT edge devices combining a controller with networking capability and outstanding communication options including client/server OPC UA. They are a choice for all demanding IIoT edge applications in extreme environments such as marine and process industries.
