Add Industrial IoT functions to stand-alone industrial machines.The Portenta machine control is a fully centralized, power-saving industrial control unit that can control devices and machines. It can be programd with the Arduino framework or other embedded development platforms. Thanks to its processing power, Portenta Machine Control enables a wide range of use cases for predictive maintenance and AI. It allows real-time data to be collected from the factory floor and supports remote control of equipment, even via the cloud if desired. The main advantages are: - shorter time-to-market- New life for existing products- additional connectivity for monitoring and control- Individual adaptation to your needs, each I/O pin can be configured- Make your devices smarter to be ready for the AI revolution- offers security and robustness from the ground up- Open up new business models (e.g. Service)- Interaction with your plant via an advanced HMI- Modular design for customization and upgradesThe Portenta machine control system enables companies to develop new business-as-a-service models by monitoring the customer's use of the equipment for predictive maintenance and providing valuable production data. Arduino machine control provides industry-standard soft PLC control and is capable of connecting a range of external sensors and actuators with isolated digital I/O, 4-20mA compatible analogue I/O, 3 configurable temperature channels and a special I2C connector. There are several options for network connectivity, including USB, Ethernet, and WiFi/BLE, in addition to industry-specific protocols such as RS485. All I/O is protected by resettable fuses, and built-in power management is designed to ensure maximum reliability in harsh environments. The Kern of the Portenta machine control runs on an Arduino Portenta H7 microcontroller board (included), a highly reliable design that operates in industrial temperature ranges (-40 °C to +85 °C) with a dual-core architecture that does not require external cooling. The main processor provides the ability to connect external human-machine interfaces such as displays, touch panels, keyboards, joysticks, and mice to enable reconfiguration of state machines and direct manipulation of processes on site. The design of the Portenta machine control addresses a variety of application scenarios. A selection of the I/O pins can be configured via software. The Portenta Machine Control is a powerful computer for standardizing and optimizing production, where a single type of hardware can meet all your requirements. Other outstanding features include: - Industrial performance by using the performance of Arduino Portenta boards- DIN rail-compatible housing- Push-in terminals for quick connection- compact device (170 x 90x 50 mm)- reliable design, industrial temperature operation (-40 °C to +85 °C) with a dual-core architecture that does not require external cooling- Embedded RTC (Real Time Clock) for perfect synchronization of processes- Use embedded connectivity without external parts- CE, FCC and RoHS certifiedThe Portenta machine control system can be used in a wide range of industries and machine types, e.g. labeling machines, forming and sealing machines, cardboard machines, adhesive machines, electric ovens, Industrial washing machines and dryers, mixers, etc. Easily insert the Portenta machine control into your existing processes and become the owner of your solutions on the machine market.This text is machine translated.
