Manufacturing OT
Connect older machines and brownfield equipment to reporting without letting them touch the control network.
Many productive machines have no Ethernet port, no API and no digital output. We connect them at the edge: add a sensor or tap an existing signal, collect data on a hardened gateway, and push it one-way to a historian or broker. The data flows out for OEE and reporting, but nothing flows back into the machine controller. The machine keeps running exactly as it did, and we do not ask the vendor to change anything.
IIoT edge
Sensors and read-only gateways pull cycle counts, uptime and alarms from legacy equipment without touching the control program or voiding the warranty.
The fastest way to create a safety or warranty problem is to send commands back to an old machine. Our edge designs are read-only by default. If a control signal is required, it is engineered separately, documented, tested and approved by the machine owner and vendor.
You do not need all new machines to get useful data. The first phase is often a proof of concept on one or two lines: count cycles, measure uptime, capture downtime reasons. Once the value is proven, the design is repeated across the plant.
Common questions
No, if done correctly. Non-intrusive taps and separate edge gateways do not modify the machine control system. We coordinate with the vendor when anything touches the machine's own network.
Cycle counts, run/stop state, uptime, part count, vibration, temperature, power draw and alarms. The goal is enough to calculate OEE and downtime without interfering with control.
We review your network, security posture, cloud tenant and recovery plan, then hand you a plain-language report of what we found and what it means for the business.
