Connecting Machines, Sensors, and IT IoT & Edge Gateway

Edge gateways collect data from machines, sensors, and systems and make it available to other systems. AKHET® Edge Devices bridge the gap between production, IT, and the cloud.

The Interface Between OT and IT

Production data is often generated by different machines and systems. Edge gateways aggregate this data, process it locally, and transmit relevant information to higher-level IT systems or cloud services.

Collect and Consolidate Data

Sensors, machines, and control systems continuously provide data. Edge gateways consolidate this information and create a central interface for IIoT and automation applications.

Process data locally

Not all information needs to be transmitted to a data center unfiltered. Data can be filtered, aggregated, or preprocessed right at the gateway. This reduces data traffic and eases the load on central systems.

Connecting Existing Systems

Edge gateways enable the phased digitalization of existing production environments. Various interfaces support the integration of machines, sensors, and control systems into modern IIoT infrastructures.

Frequently Asked Questions About Edge Computing & AKHET® Aeron FAQ

Edge Computing refers to the processing of data directly at the point where it is generated—such as on machines, production lines, or in logistics centers. With high-performance industrial PCs and edge systems from Pyramid , data can be analyzed locally and processed in real time without first having to be transferred to a remote data center.

Pyramid and manufactures powerful edge andComputer a wide range of applications. These include, for example, robust IPCs from the AKHET® , compact edge systems for machine integration, and scalable server solutions for edge data centers. The systems are designed for reliable continuous operation in industrial environments.

  • High computing power for data analysis directly on the machine
  • Robust design for industrial environments
  • Flexible I/O interfaces for sensors, cameras, and controllers
  • Scalable platforms from compact edge PCs to edge servers

Pyramid edge systems Pyramid used in many industrial scenarios, such as machine vision, production monitoring, industrial automation, logistics systems, and data-intensive IIoT applications. They enable fast local data processing while reducing dependence on cloud connections.

Many industrial AI applications require fast data processing directly at the point of use. Pyramid Computer the necessary computing power to perform image processing, quality control, or AI-based analyses directly on the production line, for example.
