The demands on automation companies have never been greater – shorter product life and evolving consumer expectations make a constant cycle of upgrades necessary. While automation machine builders assemble, repair and maintain machinery across a range of sectors, industrial decision makers at all levels have the same need- to gain remote access to systems.
On-site networking of industrial robots
The Industrial robot is mainly composed of robotic arm body, the drive system, the control system, the human interface, etc. The ZR3000/IR4000 can build a LAN with the control system and human interface through Ethernet ports. Operation data of the robots can be transmitted in real time over high-speed LTE networks. Coordinated robots can also be connected by the ZR3000/IR4000 for better efficiency.
The ZR3000/IR4000 offers a secure Wi-Fi network for field devices, making it easier for on-site maintenance staff to carry out debugging and diagnosis.
In this sense, Industrial robots, PLCs, HMI control systems and sensors on the production lines can all be connected to the ZR3000/IR4000 through Ethernet, RS485. The working status data of industrial robots will be transmitted through the secure encrypted VPN tunnel built by ZR3000/IR4000, providing the necessary multi-maintenance security mechanism for critical industrial scenarios.
The remote data center for industrial robots
The remote data center for industrial robots receives the working status data of robots in real time for each industrial sites, analyzes the data, and understands their overall status, production capacity, fault alarm and other information.
