Overview of Products, Technologies, and Services
As a software platform for the manufacturing industry, Edgecross basic software has an interface that acquires data from all equipment, devices, and controllers. In addition, it is possible to temporarily process the acquired data and easily link it with higher-level IT systems and applications.
At the booth of FOOM, we proposes the use of Edgecross for issues in food industry such as on-site troubles,labor saving, and safetys. If you are facing these issues, or are working on carbon neutrality or SDGs, please come and visit us.
Product Features
| Feature 1 | Edgecross is a software platform that runs on an industrial PC. The configuration is based on Edgecross basic software,products and solutions (devices, edge applications, IT systems, cloud, on-premises, etc.) provided Edecross members. The basic software realizes seamless cooperation between IT and FA by providing interfaces for linking with each company's solutions and interfaces compatible with network communication standards of various facilities. |
|---|---|
| Feature 2 | Real-time processing function: Delivers real-time data continuously generated from the production site in the optimum format (CSV, DB, MQTT, C language API) and timing for edge applications and IT systems. In addition, the processing results on the IT side are feedback to the production site in real time. |
| Feature 3 | Data model management: Equipment, devices, and manufacturing lines at production sites are abstracted and managed hierarchically. The abstracted data can be handled on the IT side, and the data can be read and written by the interface (OPC UA, C language API). This makes it easy for people and applications to utilize data. |
| Feature 4 | Applications can be selected according to the purpose from a wide range of lineups provided by members. Achieved a complete system construction in the edge computing area. It also receives production site data from the basic software through a common interface, and links the data to the IT system using any protocol (MQTT, OPC UA, etc.). |
| Feature 5 | Data collector: Software that collects data according to each network communication protocol of all equipment on the food production line. Pass the collected data to the basic software in a common format through an interface. In addition, data can be received from the basic software through the interface and feedback to the production site. |
