IoT Automation Systems, The Solutions to Industry 4.0

Towards an Industrial IoT Era

To construct a digital factory for a cloud enterprise, NEXCOM offers a unified architecture and seamless connection

through NEXCOM’s converged IoT cyber-physical-system to fulfill

various applications’ needs in the global rush for Industry 4.0.

The robotics controllers with

built-in EtherCAT protocol stack

and robotics algorithms are pre-

configured packages that allow

robot vendors and researchers to

develop robotic control schemes

and applications efficiently by

using NEXCOM robotics SDKs,

including SCARA, Delta, and

articulated robots.

Teach Pendent

EtherCAT I/O EtherCAT Servo Drive & Moter

The motion control solutions

with EtherCAT technology,

distributed I/O systems, and

machine tooling controllers can

help machine builders design

and implement high-

performance machinery

efficiently.

Device Layer

The IoT automation solutions composed of fieldbus and

industrial Ethernet technologies, PLCopen standards, SoftPLC,

SoftMotion controllers, distributed I/O systems, web-enabled software

HMI, predictive maintenance systems, and advanced DCS.

Device Layer

Device Layer

The device connectivity

solutions featuring fieldbus

protocols, industrial Ethernet

protocols, wireless

communications, and firewall

protection offers secure and

seamless connections to connect

field sites and legacy devices to

a plant network and control

rooms painlessly.

To build up a digitized network-based smart factory,

reliable communication and anytime, anywhere monitoring

will enhance the effectiveness and performance of

industrial applications.

NEXCOM proposes a trustworthy Wi-Fi mesh networking solution to

construct a ubiquitous backbone for plant operations.

Communication Layer

IIoT Gateway builder: The protocol routing solution

supporting fieldbus, industrial

Ethernet and cloud protocols is a

browser-based visualization tool

allowing editing of data flow from a

runtime engine - NEXCOM IoT Studio

IIoT Gateways: CPS Series provides IoT connectivity

for field devices and sensors and

support wired and wireless Connections

of GbE LAN, Wi-Fi, and 3G.

Communication Layer

Communication Layer

Edge Servers: The NISE Series can connect field devices

through multiple fieldbus ports and Gb LAN

ports and pre-process data which require

high-computing power to execute complex

algorithms and massive data storage.

NISE 3700

I4.0 Management Suite - nCare Software: The wireless infrastructure solutions including network management and

visualization software –nCare, mesh backbone (IWF 300/6000 series), and AP

devices (IWF 500 series) offer scalability, flexibility, and reliability to construct a

wide and distributed communication infrastructure for ubiquitous IoT networks.
