NEXCOM IoT Gateways Solve the Last Mile Gap for Industry 4.0
NEXCOM CPS IoT gateways allow for the fast implementation of remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and other Industry 4.0 scenarios alike.
NEXCOM CPS IoT gateways offer a simple turnkey solution to solve the gap between the control layer and the management layer of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Designed with edge computing capability, fieldbus accessibility, and cloud connectivity, NEXCOMs CPS IoT gateways enable system integration engineers and machine builders to assign downlinks and uplinks within a fraction of time by leveraging drag-n-drop operations and built-in functions. With setup and configuration processes streamlined, the CPS IoT gateways allow for the fast implementation of remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and other Industry 4.0 scenarios alike.
NEXCOM CPS series is composed of application-ready IoT gateways that are easy to deploy and configure. The CPS series can interface with industrial control systems and a wide variety of PLCs over PROFIBUS, PROFINET and EtherNet/IP protocols, and field devices and sensors via OPC UA, Modbus TCP/RTU and serial signals. Moreover, SQLite and MySQL databases, HTTP, and HTML are supported for uplink connections over wired and wireless networks. Included with NEXCOM Industrial IoT Studio--a configuration tool with a graphical user interface (GUI) where functions including fieldbus communications, network connectivity, and cloud support are pre-integrated--the CPS series can start collecting, processing, and transferring data after a few drags and drops of function nodes.
In a remote monitoring application, the CPS series can keep manufacturers updated with the latest production progress by amassing field data from the control layer, parsing data streams, and sending extracted information to cloud platforms where information is presented in charts and diagrams. Preventive maintenance is another practical use of the CPS IoT gateways which can keep a log of machine health status, email or text system engineers a summary via web services at regular intervals, and alert engineers when a monitored parameter falls outside an acceptable range, instead of swamping the engineers with minute-by-minute data of every machine.
NEXCOM CPS IoT gateways are pre-installed with NEXCOM Industrial IoT Studio and available in two models. The high-performance CPS 200 with quad-core Intel® Celeron® processor J1900, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of SSD is targeted at data-intensive applications demanding computing power for parallel data processing and large data storage for data logging. Meanwhile, the rugged CPS 100 designed for harsh operating environments supports an extended temperature range from -20°C to 65°C and ships with dual-core Intel® Atom processor E3805, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of storage.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
