Omron Automation Controller for IIoT applications

The NX1 machine automation controller series is designed to improve productivity through integration with information utilization, quality management and safety. It uses multicore technology to collect synchronized data from sensors, servo motors and other devices within the same fixed cycle time. The controller then sends all collected data to the host IT system while keeping control performance at the ideal level. Three industrial Ethernet ports—EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT—along with an OPC UA server interface for industrial automation and information technology are housed in a compact 66-mm-wide design. This connectivity enables data usage at production sites and provides a secure connection to host IT systems.
