Dealing with large amounts of data
New solutions for complex applications
At Hannover Messe 2024, Wago presented an edge computer that can be used to process and optimize large volumes of data directly at the machine.
Industrial processes require more and more computing power in the field to ensure optimum data utilization. To enable complex applications with higher requirements, Wago is expanding its portfolio with two more powerful edge computers with 16 GB RAM and 32 GB RAM. Both devices are equipped with a more powerful processor, larger RAM and an extended temperature range of -20 to +60 degrees Celsius. This enables faster data processing in different areas of application.
Thanks to the pre-installed Debian Linux operating system and Portainer container management software, system integrators and programmers save time during commissioning. With edge computing, users can bring cloud functionalities directly to the machine and benefit from a borderless connection between IT and OT.
The new edge computers therefore fit perfectly into the automation environment and offer another way to flexibly design systems for complex applications. Users benefit from increased performance thanks to more powerful processors and larger RAM, as well as fast commissioning and higher security thanks to the TPM 2.0 chip and UEFI Boot Secure.
