Codabix Hedgesoc

How to use

Three steps to industrial (r)evolution! Unpack. Connect. Automate. Connect shop- and topfloor bidirectionally with your own business logic with the ready-to-use N2N infrastructure.

The production is full of hardware for controlling processes on plants and machines. Hardware for entering parameters, hardware for recording temperature, weight, pressure, errors, statuses and more. Each of these devices has something in common: They are rarely from the same manufacturer.

In planning, there are numerous software applications, databases and files. The interfaces of the software, the possibilities of the databases and the formats of the files are very different and mostly only portable via workarounds.: They are rarely compatible with each other.

• No search for suitable hardware!
• No need to set up a system environment!
• No need to change the hardware and software configuration!
• No licenses from Siemens and Co. necessary!
• No follow-up costs and no SaaS binding!
• No restrictions of know-how!
• No changeover of processes!

With Codabix as middleware in and between production and planning, no new machine, no new software application or even programming adaption is required. Thanks to the wide range of supported open and proprietary protocols, file formats, databases and interfaces, the own industrial revolution is within reach.

In the garment of a powerful industrial PC for the control cabinet at the edge of the production, Codabix Hedgesoc becomes a data hub in and between production and planning. The data hub is configured via any browser from a pleasantly temperature-controlled, quiet and clean desk: Controllers, components, databases, files, etc. are integrated here, the relevant data is defined and brought to life with the own business logic.

Advantages

• Quick and easy to set up
• Configuration via the browser
• Optimal environment for an AI
• Open operating system
• Industrial assembly
• Industrial reliability
• Qualified support

The biggest advantage of the Codabix Hedgesoc is the ready-to-use operation of Codabix as middleware, while other applications – such as artificial intelligence – can be executed in parallel on the open operating system thanks to sufficient resources.

Editions

Whether for the Industrial IoT, Edge or as a Data Hub. Codabix Hedgesoc has the right hardware and middleware for every scenario.

Codabix Hedgesoc IoT

Hedgesoc acts as an Industry 4.0 gateway and enables the connection of up to five identical and different components, devices and systems via the supported protocols. The integrated OPC UA Server allows up to five OPC UA Clients and an unlimited number of Clients to access the connected participants via HTTP(S) via REST API, REST JSON API and SignalR API.

Codabix Hedgesoc Edge

In the Edge version, Hedgesoc is an Industry 4.0 gateway and smart data router that combines the possibilities of Industrial IoT with those of a smart Edge solution. It supports the connection of up to five identical and different components, devices and systems via open and proprietary protocols. A further five heterogeneous data sources/sinks in the form of databases and files also find the necessary connectivity here. Hedgesoc Edge also provides an integrated scripting environment for your own business processes so that you can implement your own know-how accoring to individual requirements.

Once defined, each data piont, whether from a participant or from the company's own business logic, can be consumed directly via the integrated OPC UA Server with up to five OPC UA Clients simultaneouly. Thanks to smart data processing, the freely modelable data structures can then also be used interactively with an unlimited number of additional Clients via HTTP(S) via REST API, REST JSON API and SignalR API in an unlimited number of other Industry 4.0 Edge scenarios.

Codabix Hedgesoc Data Hub

As a Data Hub, Codabix Hedgesoc connects the interfaces between the top- and shopfloor, acting as an Industry 4.0 gateway and smart data router. The extensive number of supported connectivity solutions enables it to be used as a data hub including crucial (artificial) logic. It supports the connection of up to 50 identical and different components, devices and systems via open and proprietary protocols. These can also be coupled with up to 50 additional passive participants in various database and file systems.

To finalize the digitalization and the realization of Industry 4.0, the Data Hub provides an integrated scripting environment for the own know-how to control and regulate processes according to years of experience. The connection of processes and modules of a trained AI can be implemented directly via the integrated OPC UA Server with up to 50 OPC UA Clients simultaneously. For visualization, whether classic offline or online, partially virtual (AR) or completely virtual (VR), the data structures can be structured according and prepared for graphical display. To retrieve this data, an unlimited number of additional Clients can be used via HTTP(S) via REST API, REST JSON API and SignalR API.
