Combined Offering - Connect the IoT platform to the production floor

Takebishi’s powerful DeviceGateway can communicate with over 320 devices from over 80 manufacturers, allowing unified data monitoring and analysis even for complex systems with machinery from various manufacturers. A Secure OPC UA communication ensures a stable transfer of data from production equipment to the cloud, centralizing device management as well as incorporating event and buffering functions as an edge solution. By aggregating machine data, DeviceGateway also plays the role of UNS (Unified Name Space) to organize the data from manufacturing sites.

This combined solution is achieved by integrating DeviceGateway with thin-edge.io and Cumulocity IoT’s OPC UA gateway agent. It is a powerful combination, that is simple to set up and maintain without any additional programming for a fraction of the cost. Configuration takes place via web browser, and the system can be managed centrally from Cumulocity IoT.

Architecture

The setup of the entire edge solution can be deployed on the IoT edge device of your choice. Takebishi’s DeviceGateway connects with machines on the shopfloor via any of its supported protocols. Its OPC UA interface is then configured to establish a data connection with Cumulocity IoT’s OPC UA gateway agent which forwards the data to Cumulocity IoT via HTTP REST. This setup of the data processing pipeline is also manageable from the cloud when extended with the open-source framework thin-edge.io. Thin-edge.io is a robust and lightweight framework, that is maintained by Cumulocity IoT.

It can interact with many IoT platforms such as Cumulocity IoT and supports rich device management features. It is now possible to manage the IoT device itself and change the configuration of the OPC UA gateway agent and the DeviceGateway.
