WAGO Edge Controller ja Computer

Vaativampaan laskentatehoon vastaavat 4-ytimiset teollisuus PC:t. WAGOn EDGE-laitteet tarjoavat laajat kenttäväylävaihtoehdot tiedon keräämiseen kentältä, sekä tiedon lähetykseen esimerkiksi pilvipalveluihin.

Linux-pohjaiset EDGE-laitteet ovat ohjelmoitavissa sekä kaikille yleisillä ohjelmointikielillä Linux-ympäristössä, että laitevalmistajariippumattomalla CODESYS V3.5 -ohjelmalla IEC 61131-3-standardin mukaisesti. Lisäksi EDGE-laitteista PC-mallit tukevat avointa ctrlX OS-käyttöjärjestelmää.

Optimal Data Utilization with Edge Computing

Edge devices process applications right on the machine, offloading them from controllers so they can focus on their actual control duties with low latency and a high level of determinism.

Data transfer from machines and systems directly to a cloud solution is often too resource-intensive, and the low latency required in industrial environments makes it infeasible. Edge computing combines the advantages of decentralized cloud architectures with those of a local network architecture and has become an established approach.

The data collected from machines and systems can be evaluated directly on the edge devices, displayed graphically and made available to a cloud. These devices ensure optimal transfer for particularly critical data and offer an additional option for flexible system design in complex applications.

The Right Edge Device for Your Application

The broad portfolio of industrial PCs offers you maximum performance and flexibility in different applications. Whether in mechanical engineering, the energy industry, the process industry or the marine sector – WAGO offers the right hardware for every edge application.

WAGO Edge Computer

Kun laskentatehon ja muistin vaatimukset ovat korkeat, WAGO tarjoaa Edge Computerilla täydellisen ratkaisun. Sen ominaisuuksiin kuuluu 1,91 GHz:n neliytiminen Atom-prosessori ja siinä on vakiona Debian Linux. Käyttäjät voivat hyödyntää runsaasti resursseja ja mallintaa niihin kokonaisia automaatioprosesseja.

Mahdollistaa vakio-ohjelmistojen käytön

WAGO Edge Controller

Edge Controller -ohjaimessa on ARM Cortex-A9 -neliydinprosessori ja se tarjoaa laajan valikoiman liitäntöjä, kuten kaksi ETHERNET-porttia, yksi CANopen-portti ja kaksi USB-porttia. Se sisältää myös sarjaliitännän ja neljä digitaalista tuloa/lähtöä paikallisten laitteiden tai antureiden liittämistä varten.

Etusi:

Helppo integrointi olemassa oleviin järjestelmiin
Tilaa säästävä asennus
Mahdollisuus projektin konfigurointiin tutussa CODESYS-ympäristössä

WAGO Edge Controller 400

The demands on modern automation systems are steadily increasing: More and more computing power is needed right in the field for optimal data use. WAGO offers solutions with the Edge Controller 400, which is tailored to the Linux®-based, real-time-capable ctrlX OS technology. The devices require little space, can be easily integrated into existing systems and process applications directly on the machine. Using ctrlX app technology, the Edge Controller 400 can be flexibly adapted to the specific task.

Your Benefits:

Control and data processing in one device
With ctrlX OS – the Linux^®-based operating system
IoT-ready thanks to MQTT and OPC UA
Comprehensive app selection for ctrlX

Overview of Benefits

Easy Cloud Connection

The collected data can be evaluated directly and displayed graphically. Transfer may be appropriate for especially critical data, for instance.

Equipped for High Security

A TPM 2.0 chip allows an encryption mechanism to be used. Besides the standard VPN applications, the devices are open for special security solutions such as Tosibox and Hooc.

Pre-Installed Debian Linux

Our Edge Computers come with pre-installed Debian Linux for straightforward commissioning. You benefit from quick and easy integration into your application.

Optimal Performance in Tight Spaces

Maximum computing power and performance in a compact form: WAGO Edge Computers offer impressive performance with minimal space requirements and are easy to mount on DIN-rails.

Quick and easy deployment of Docker® containers

Container virtualization via Docker® allows you to isolate applications from a local infrastructure and makes software provision faster, easier and more secure. Interested in exploiting the benefits of Docker® more easily with edge computing?

In the video, Jonathan Malessa, Team Leader for the OPC Router at inray, and Michael Drost, WAGO System Consultant for Industry, show how you can run the WAGO PFC200 Controller together with the OPC Router as a Docker® container on a single WAGO Edge Computer. The OPC Router no longer needs to be installed on its own dedicated server in the network – it’s simply deployed as a Docker® container on the Edge Computer and is executable immediately.

The advantages of this solution are obvious: In addition to hardware costs, it eliminates the need for installation, maintenance, updates and security. Have a look!
