Festo’s CPX-IIOT Gateway is a secure, low-cost and easy-to-implement digital solution, enabling users to enter into the world of digitalisation and data analytics in an easy-to-manage and entirely safe way. It provides the first step for companies wanting to develop Industry 4.0 proof of concept or pilot projects with simple, programming free, on-boarding.
The CPX-IOT Gateway module securely connects components and devices from the field level to the Cloud and through the MyDashboards web browser, provides access to highly visual, easy-to-navigate dashboards. This gives engineers and managers visibility over the performance of their devices. It provides live data and historical trending of component data points, error status and overall condition monitoring so engineers can adapt their processes accordingly. Data is exported to and stored in a Festo cloud hosted within the EU by Microsoft Azure, which also provides the user and security management.
