Edge Computing, Embedded Systems
Is it time to look at edge computing?
With the rise of 5G in manufacturing, effective edge computing requires consideration of industrial PCs (IPCs) at the edge.
Moving toward self-assembly machine automation systems
Evolving PLC and PAC platforms, networking, and programming methods are leading to self-assembled machine automation systems, reducing risk and user integration efforts.
Create value from data: Using HMIs as intelligent edge devices
Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) are evolving beyond basic visualization devices to become edge-located, data handling, and analytical powerhouses. See 5 modern HMI attributes.
Executive Brand Video Series—Learn How Thought Leaders at Stratus are Responding to COVID-19
Jason Andersen, vice president strategy and product management at Stratus Technologies, discusses how they are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Automation controllers, edge computing
Which devices to use? A multi-tasking controller combines functions of a PC-based software controller with visualization, PC applications, and input/output connections. Combining a scalable human-machine interface (HMI) system, supervisory control and data acquisition, and other functions can add edge functionality.
Should I use an edge controller, PLC, or PAC?
Industrial automation end users are finding edge control technologies excel at familiar programmable logic controller (PLC) and programmable automation controller (PAC) applications while delivering future-proof computing and communication options.
Automation meets edge computing
Combining a scalable human-machine interface (HMI) system and supervisory control and data acquisition with additional edge functionality gives machine and plant designs a high degree of flexibility and adaptability to quickly react to changing market environments and maintain fast innovations cycles.
