Why Datahub for the mechanical engineering industry
Industry standards
We speak SECS-GEM, PackML, FDA, and other industry languages.
Regulated communication
The A-Hub collects and organizes data, forwarding it based on a custom rule system. This ensures data is processed according to the specific requirements of the system, enabling efficient and tailored data management across various devices or platforms.
Retrofit
Integration of machines from different generations and data formats.
Everything in one place.
The A-Hub collects all data in one centralized location, either on an existing IPC or a separate hardware module designed for DIN rail mounting. This setup allows for efficient data aggregation, ensuring seamless integration with various systems.
Pack ML
A-Hub supports PackML (Packaging Machine Language), a standardized model for controlling packaging machines. It offers a unified interface for operation, maintenance, and monitoring of packaging machines. This standard simplifies machine integration into automated production lines and enhances communication between different machines, improving efficiency, reducing downtime, and ensuring consistent operation.
PackML defines operational states such as Start, Stop, Pause, and Idle, along with their transitions, to clearly indicate the machine’s status. This simplifies improving efficiency, minimizing downtime, and ensuring consistent operation across packaging machines in automated production lines. The standardization provided by PackML enhances the integration and communication between machines, allowing for smoother workflow and more reliable performance.
