Siemens SIMATIC IOT2050

The Link to Digital Dimensions

Whether it's in a new or existing plant, Siemens SIMATIC IOT2050 easily and cost-effectively opens the way to digital dimensions. The smart IoT gateway is easy to retrofit, and will acquire, process, harmonize, and save machine and production data from multiple sources directly on-site in a production facility, and then pass it on, for example, to a local or cloud-based system.

Link to Industrial Edge

Thanks to Edge functionality that will be available in the future, it will be easy to integrate SIMATIC IOT2050 in Industrial Edge solutions from Siemens. The gateway analyzes and processes the machine and plant data right where it's generated: directly in a production facility and plant. The result is rapid, immediate, plant-wide data analysis on-site. For the user this also means a tangible benefit for cloud computing: The volume of data to be transmitted to the cloud is substantially reduced, so the user can make optimal use of bandwidth.

Link to IIOT and Cloud

Smart interconnectivity is the key to the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). And this is exactly where the SIMATIC IOT2050 smart IoT gateway comes in: It links the user's in-company IT, production, and cloud, and combines data from a wide range of data sources. Equipped with the SIMATIC Industrial OS operating system based on Linux for Debian, SIMATIC IOT2050 processes and transmits data directly to the production environment via industrial IT solutions.

Link to Top Performance

With SIMATIC IOT2050, the user benefits from maximum performance thanks to powerful Texas Instruments ARM processors, 2 GB DDR4-RAM memory and many interfaces, such as an mPCle port for wireless cards, Gbit LAN and two USB ports, and one serial and one Arduino port. The gateway is also set up not only for data transmission but also for data aggregation, converting a range of communication protocols, and pre-processing in high-level languages like Java, C++, Arduino IDE, and Eclipse.

Link for Keeping Pace

There's a future for existing plants: With SIMATIC IOT2050, even existing systems of all ages can be quickly and cost-efficiently connected to digital dimensions. IIoT, Industrial Edge, or cloud systems - with the smart IoT gateway, the user can take advantage of them all.

SIMATIC IOT2050 connects brownfield plant with the digital future

Stay competitive and get more room to maneuver in production, all at minimal cost: The SIMATIC IOT2050 smart IoT gateway is ideally suited for retrofitting, making existing plant and machines IIoT-capable easily and cost-efficiently. It connects different data sources, harmonizes communication between them, analyzes the data, and forwards it for analysis, for example to a local ERP system or cloud. That means the user can make future-oriented production concepts a reality even for existing plants.

SIMATIC IOT2050 is easy to integrate in existing communications infrastructure using a bus system or serial interfaces. There's no need to change either the users existing control hardware or their software.

Agile, Reliable, and Efficient production with:

Networked Automation and IT

SIMATIC IOT2050 enable secure communication between the ERP system and production. That means individual customer requests, for example for one-off products, can be transmitted and processed within the production unit.

Preventative Maintenance

SIMATIC IOT2050 records, aggregates, and analyzes production data like speed and operating hours. This allows the user to calculate the best maintenance interval for the machines and avoid unnecessary downtimes.

Optimized Shop Floor Management

SIMATIC IOT2050 handles data transmission and sends an automatic alert within the shop floor management system if the volume of consumables falls below a set minimum, which helps prevent production downtimes.

Power-Flo Technologies is proud to partner with Siemens and their SIMATIC IOT2050 smart IoT gateway that offers a seamless bridge between existing plants and the digital future. Its powerful processing capabilities, flexible connectivity, and edge functionality allow users to collect, harmonize, and analyze data directly on-site, while efficiently integrating with cloud and industrial IT systems. By enabling preventative maintenance, optimized shop floor management, and agile production, it ensures minimal downtime and maximized efficiency. Easy to retrofit and integrate without changing existing hardware or software, SIMATIC IOT2050 empowers manufacturers to implement future-ready production strategies cost-effectively.
