Advanced processing of production-floor data contributes to
preventative maintenance and product quality
Mitsubishi
Electric Corporation (TOKYO:6503) announced today that it has
developed supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software and
industrial-use computers that it will incorporate in e-F@ctory-brand
solutions for edge computing on production floors where network edges
and data sources intersect. The new offerings will greatly enhance
smart-manufacturing processes for production data collection and
analysis as well as real-time diagnostics to strengthen preventive
maintenance and product quality. Solutions will support the Edgecross
open-software platform facilitating connectivity between production
floors and value chains via the Internet of Things (IoT) systems. A
commercial launch is expected in the spring of 2018.
Mitsubishi Electric will exhibit its new edge-computing software and
products at the System Control Fair at the Tokyo Big Sight exhibition
complex from November 28 to December 1 and the China International
Industry Fair at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in
Shanghai from November 7 to 11.
