C-Gate IoT Hub
The C-Gate IoT Hub is a software application and forms the centre of the data flow. The functionality of the hub is extended by the respective software modules. One hub is recommended per location, which can be installed on a server or PC.
Tasks of IoT Hubs:
- Central data management and configuration
- Interface to MES and ERP systems
- Data visualisation
C-Gate IoT Connector
The C-Gate IoT Connector is an edge gateway in the form of an industrial PC that is installed near the system or in the welding device. It serves as a connection between the device and IoT Hub.
Tasks of IoT Connectors:
- Offline provision of IoT Hub data
- Secured transmission and buffering of the unit data
- Separation of machine network and other networks
- Secure connection in the network via WLAN
- Simplified network integration of the plant at a central point
- Future-proof cloud capability
