Industrial automation is the integration of technology into an industry to reduce even replace human operators.
“No one doubts that industrial automation technology is becoming a critical way to develop sustainable and efficient processes that entered almost every field.”
– Mark Enlargent
From factory automation with remote management systems, farming automation with scheduled irrigation systems, to IoT traffic management with the automatic traffic lights control.
Automated industries from manufacturing to retail, utilities and transportation are using technology in countless ways. From sensors connected to wireless networks that collect data and share data, to process automation operation that uses software technology to build and manage action that can perform manual tasks.
System Requirements
No two businesses are using technology the same way. But almost all systems require a few basic functions
1. Data collection
2. Edge computing.
3. Data transmission and interoperation.
4. Security
How does Elastel EG410 edge computing Gateway meet industrial automation needs
