Automation solutions for constant production processes

Automation processes have significantly increased the efficiency of all production processes in industrial manufacturing companies in recent years and – assuming identical processes – have led to consistently high product quality. Sorting machines for agricultural products use sensor technology and camera systems to recognize different sizes and shapes, and robots carry out precise and constant production steps.

In modern Industrie 4.0 sites, the various machines involved in the manufacturing process are interconnected and can communicate with each other in an “intelligent” way. This automatically records inventory levels, aligns production processes more closely with demand, and uses barcodes or RFID chips to optimize processes and supply chain tracking.

Hardware for reliable industrial automation

PCs with a high performance capacity create the conditions for automation to support your production processes reliably and, if possible, in 24/7 continuous operation. In sorting systems or coding processes, various components such as camera systems, temperature, air pressure and many other sensors are often connected to high-performance computers that must collect and evaluate large amounts of data in real time to enable a smooth production flow. InoNet industrial computers have been used for many years in mechanical and plant engineering, in the automotive industry, in the aviation industry and in many other branches of industry. Our PC solutions feature Power over Ethernet (PoE) if required and can even be used in application-critical areas due to fanless technology and the solid closed design. Our experts first get a precise picture of your hardware requirements and then develop a fail-safe hardware system, taking into account the relevant environmental parameters. Afterwards, we take care of the professional implementation – from cabling to commissioning – and train your staff on request to teach them the appropriate handling of our hardware in detail.

Traffic monitoring and traffic control systems

Computer-controlled traffic systems collect large amounts of various measurement data in order to increase safety and traffic flow on roads and highways based on their evaluation. Our powerful hardware systems are already being used in a wide range of different traffic monitoring systems to capture and evaluate the constant stream of data from the associated camera and sensor systems.

Installed on sign gantries, sensors record the number of passing vehicles, for example, in order to reduce the overall speed if necessary and optimize road utilization by reducing the distance between vehicles as a result. Tolling systems such as Toll Collect or parking garages rely on InoNet hardware for Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to record tolls for trucks or to locate their own vehicle via app.

Fail-safe industrial computers for interlockings, wagon monitoring and infotainment

For the coordination of rail traffic in interlockings, InoNet develops industrial computers that meet all standards when used in this safety-critical area. Due to its high reliability, our hardware is therefore increasingly used in control technology. Inside trains, our high-performance PCs ensure the acquisition and evaluation of various measurement data in accordance with DIN EN 50155. In conjunction with our display solutions, technical personnel always maintain an overview of the machine’s current energy consumption and are informed automatically and at an early stage about material wear. Our hardware ensures efficient energy use and reduces maintenance costs by identifying the need to repair individual components at an early stage.

We will be happy to plan and implement innovative hardware concepts for rail and road traffic together with you.

Image & Video Processing

In a variety of different industries, the use of camera technology ensures consistently high manufacturing quality of products. In plant and mechanical engineering, safety engineering, aerospace technology or tool and mold making, camera systems in combination with high-performance industrial computers take over the qualitative inspection and individual recording of every single production step. Such surface inspection systems, quality assurance systems or material testing applications perform real-time audio-visual data acquisition and processing in the form of A/D conversion. The resulting high degree of automation ensures consistent results and is therefore many times superior in precision and speed to the analog control process via visual or haptic control by workers. Corresponding alarm and early error detection applications take effect at an early stage and reduce the risk of substandard batches and machine failures. In addition, optical inspection at the end of a production process in connection with product labeling enables the integration of track & trace labels for consistent tracing of complete production processes.
