5G Factory Automation Solution
5G Smart factories are enhancing manufacturing efficiency with IoT and AI. The smart factory leverages 5G connectivity through DeviceLive for stable networks, remote monitoring and secure data transmission. Overall, these features are all met by the IR624 with its diverse industrial interface and robust security.
Background
With the rapid development of information technology, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and other fields, smart factories are a key focus for upgrading and transforming the manufacturing industry. In smart factories, real-time communication and collaborative operation among production line equipment can enhance automation throughout the production process.
Customer Requirements
Improved Production Efficiency
Ensure real-time communication and collaboration among equipment through stable network connectivity to achieve 24-hour continuous production and enhance production efficiency.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
Utilizing remote monitoring and management will identify and resolve risks promptly, reducing the workload of on-site maintenance personnel and lowering maintenance costs.
Business Data Security
Ensure the solution has been optimized with secure network connectivity and data transmission to avoid security issues such as network attacks and business data leakage.
Solution
The production, assembly line, inspection, and process equipment on the production line connect to the IR624 via Ethernet or serial port. The IR624 then transmits the production line data in real-time to the remote business platform using a high-speed 5G cellular network. The business platform utilizes big data to conduct in-depth analysis of the collected production data, providing real-time status of the production line and enabling live monitoring of the production process. Additionally, by utilizing Ethernet ports to locally segment VLANs, the IR624 interfaces with the factory’s MES system, facilitating tracking of material usage, production progress, and other data. Furthermore, InHand also provides the DeviceLive equipment operation management platform, which establishes remote channels for equipment management and maintenance.
