INDUSTRY 4.0: AUTOMATION, MACHINE BUILDING & IIOT Solutions for enabling the smart factory INDUSTRY 4.0: AUTOMATION, MACHINE BUILDING & IIOT .01

WELCOME TO SMART FACTORIES WELCOME TO SMART FACTORIES Industry 4.0 is about the strategic transformation taking place in the way goods are produced and delivered, moving toward industrial automation and the flexible smart factory. The traditional manufacturing industry has undergone a faster digital transformation that is accelerated by exponentially growing technologies (e.g. intelligent robots, autonomous drones, sensors, 3D printing). 03 WELCOME TO SMART FACTORIES To stay competitive, factories must leverage the IIoT and digitalization to become more efficient and productive to face challenges...

MACHINE BUILDING MACHINE BUILDING In manufacturing, Industry 4.0 is used to leverage operational efficiency, refine demand forecasting, break down data silos, engage in predictive maintenance, offer workers boosts to safety and virtual training, and more. Industry 4.0 spans manufacturing from planning to delivery, with solutions for deep analytics, shop floor data sensors, smart warehouses, simulated changes, plus product and asset tracking. The traditional approach was based on separate operational technology (OT) and company information (IT) systems. Over time and thanks to technological advances,...

AUTOMATION & IIOT AUTOMATION & IIOT EMC robustness & harsh environments Automation and IIoT are exciting concepts of Industry 4.0 that promote strategic transformation in the way goods are produced and delivered. To enable these concepts, a company’s infrastructure must be fully interconnected. Configured correctly, this interconnection brings companies advantages in terms of time and money saved. But if certain points are not addressed, it also presents risks and new challenges: Since industrial Ethernet networks are becoming an integral part of machines and industrial plants, the close proximity...

AUTOMATION & IIOT Enable machine to enterprise communication Network management Transparent and real-time updates on the network status and alarms are crucial for fast and effective corrective actions. ATOP solutions are designed to enable users of different levels at different locations to monitor and optimize the industrial network, gaining full visibility of network and automation devices. Operators can easily identify issues or implement authorized actions, while supervisors can analyze health and risks, and remotely update configurations as needed. Enterprises need communication solutions...

SOLUTION INSIGHTS SOLUTION INSIGHTS SECURE NETWORK WITH DATA ENCRYPTION ATOP’s wide portfolio of features can be overwhelming. Below we will take a deeper look into some useful and advanced solutions, as well as the specific challenges they help solve. Highly connected systems make work easier, but are also under greater risk to cyber incidents or attacks. IEEE 802.1AE protocol (MACsec) uses strong crypto (AES-128 bit) to provide authentication, integrity and confidentiality to supported components. The communication is encrypted from hop-to-hop, so, decrypted upon receipt and encrypted again...

SOLUTION INSIGHTS PROFINET CERTIFIED SWITCHES Some more requirements and how we face them PROFINET is an industry standard for data communication over Industrial Ethernet. It is especially suited for process automation, meeting most industrial automation timing requirements, while wired and wireless connectivity options provide a more effective backbone for automation operations. OPC UA integration allows openness for industry 4.0 applications. PROFINET functions are divided into conformance classes which define device functionality. CC-A network switches enable real-time data exchange, alarm...

IN APPLICATION Industry 4.0 OT networks can be divided into the control and field bus level, where controllers like PLCs communicate with end-devices like meters and IEDs, and the supervision monitoring level, where they link to higher authorities like SCADA. Further up, SCADA passes information through IT networks to the Internet. On another level, a shoe manufacturer requested a solution to monitor machinery managed by PLCs. Since machinery is often not Ethernet-based, the PG5901B Industrial M2M Cellular Protocol Gateway converts different protocols to give managers OT visibility through SCADA...
