flexGateway

THIS SOFTWARE IS NOT (ready) FOR PRODUCTION USE

A Raspberry-Pi based industrial gateway. It is designed to enable IoT (MQTT, OPC, ...) ability to industrial machines.

The adapters provide and handle the machine/hardware/software specific implementation which allow you to read or write values to your device. Due to the 1:n connection like manner, you can configure the communication within the gateway to your needs. The plugin system can be used to write your own adapter implementation.

Example:

                                         |<--> OPC Server  <--> Company OEE / ERP  
 [CNC Siemens 840dsl] Parameter "R10" ---|---> SQL Adapter 
                                         |---> MQTT       
                                        

The gateway will be controlled through a Blazor WebAssembly app.

Project Information

If you are interested in IoT, Indsutry 4.0 or general industriual machiniery feel free to contribute to my project and help me with the implementation. Please note that the project is not even close for production usage.
