Edge Gateways with Container Management

Edge Gateways from Hilscher are intelligent data transmitters between the automation level and the information technology level. They aggregate, handle or transmit additional IoT information of your production process completely autonomously. This is done either locally or in combination with a cloud in order to monetize insights gained from it according to demand.

The Edge Gateways build on Docker technology and, together with the Hilscher Cloud platform, form a powerful tool for the optimal distribution and management of software for your device fleets or globally distributed machines. But also a combination with cloud solutions from other companies is possible.

For use cases that require a direct connection of sensors, a dedicated IO-Link master is also available. This combines sophisticated device management and computing power at the edge with the proven IO-Link technology. This means that brownfield plants, for example, can be equipped with modern sensor technology in no time at all.
