Lack of real-time machine data
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the greatest impediment to process improvement is not always regulatory constraints.
In many instances, it can be lack of real-time process visibility. The foundation of any factory's digital transformation begins with the automated capture, transformation, and contextualization of machine data.
Real-time visibility
Vimachem IIoT Edge Gateway software provides a scalable solution for manufacturers that can be self-installed to easily collect data from any piece of equipment and send it to Cloud or to a local server, to enable actionable machine insights in a matter of minutes.
Benefits of the IIoT Edge Gateway module
Universal plug and measure data collection for PLC’s that support open protocols including MTConnect, OPC-UA, and Modbus.
To incorporate even the most difficult equipment, add external sensors or link older equipment with digital and analog IO that can be configured and operated centrally through a web interface.
To allow reliable reporting and analytics, our automated data transformation engine converts machine data into common data structures across all types of equipment. Custom Sensor Values, Machine Status, Modes, Alarms, Overrides, Load, Speeds, Feeds, Diagnostics, and other data objects are collected, transformed and stored ready to real-time analytics.
Easily deploy Vimachem IIoT Edge devices connected directly to any modern machine control system via the ethernet port, or install our Edge software on your own VM or server.
Data is encrypted and safely streamed to the Vimachem IIoT Cloud MES platform in real time via ethernet, wifi, or cellular connectivity.
Plug & connect communications for any machine or device
Utilize IIoT, big data, and cloud technologies to expand machine connectivity and increase the value of machine data.
Support for OPC-UA, MQTT, DNP3, Modbus and IEC 60870 protocols.
Support for many PLC brands, including Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider Electric, GE, Automation Direct, Bosch, Eaton, WAGO, Beckhoff, BACnet, Texas Instruments, Mitsubishi, Omron and more.
Auto-Build functionality speeds up engineering efforts by reading the structure of a PLC program and automatically creating models templates and instances based on the PLC schema.
Secure encrypted communications.
