IOT News

With the rapid advancement of industrial IoT technologies, remote monitoring and early warning applications for PLC-controlled automated equipment via mobile and PC platforms have become increasingly common. On one hand, equipment manufacturers can centrally manage multiple machines, detect faults promptly, and perform timely maintenance. On the other hand, customers gain real-time visibility into equipment operating status and production data, enabling better management and control—effectively improving collaborative efficiency and resource utilization across the supply chain, fostering mutually beneficial outcomes.

Laminating machines are widely used in the packaging industry. By applying a coating layer to materials, they significantly enhance moisture resistance, corrosion protection, and dust resistance. PLC-controlled laminating machines support fully automated production, and their operating status is critical to production safety. To address this, WideIOT offers a PLC data acquisition solution based on edge computing gateways, enabling remote monitoring and timely alerting via mobile and PC interfaces.

System Functions

Collects key operating parameters from laminating machines—including pressure, temperature, liquid level, voltage, and current—and transmits them via 5G/4G/Wi-Fi/Ethernet to local host systems or cloud platforms.

Standardizes data formatting and supports a variety of edge computing functions—such as intelligent acquisition, data filtering, alarm calculation, change-triggered actions, formula-based computation, and grouping strategies.

Monitors production progress, operational parameters, runtime, and site conditions, with automated alerting via WeChat, SMS, or email when anomalies are detected.

With the Remote Maintenance Tunnel, enables remote PLC programming, debugging, and program upload/download for off-site equipment, as well as remote PLC control operations.

Aggregates data into dashboards, MES systems, or SCADA software to support visualized process monitoring, data analytics, and production management—facilitating timely and informed decision-making.
