NEXCOM’s PC-based controller NIFE 105 helps machine makers raise the value of industrial machines and create revenue-generating services. Machine markers are exploring new ways of utilizing digital manufacturing to better serve manufacturing clients. Using machine data, digital manufacturing can increase energy savings, production efficiency, and productivity for manufacturers while raising the value of industrial machines and creating revenue-generating services for machine makers. To expedite the digital adoption, the role of industrial machines must expand from machine control to machine-to-machine communication and real-time data integration.

This article considers a complete Industry 4.0 solution based on NEXCOM’s PC-based controller NIFE 105 featuring Intel® Atom® processor x5-E3930. The solution can equip the next generation of industrial machines with computing, control, and connectivity functions. The solution can interoperate with legacy standalone industrial machines by breaking information silos imposed by industrial communication protocols and connect industrial machines across the factory floors and all the way up to the cloud to allow for machine-to-machine communication and real-time data integration, catalyzing the convergence of operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT).
