Introduction[edit | edit source]
Industrial IoT (IIoT)—sometime referred to Industrial Internet—is one of the key elements of the Industry 4.0 model.
Nowadays, the implementation of IIoT solutions, associated with machines that are already in operation, are pretty common. This step is usually part of a broader plan that is a migration path toward the Industry 4.0. Traditional industrial machines and systems, which were conceived and deployed before the introduction of Industry 4.0 concept, often have no Internet connectivity. As such, it is usually challenging to find non-intrusive retrofitting solutions to connect them to the Internet.
This Technical Note describes a real-world example in which the versatility of SBC Lynx was leveraged to address this issue. A customized industrial gateway was built on the base of SBC Lynx. This device, which is able to perform non-intrusive data collecting from a legacy industrial machine, is part of a larger data collecting and monitoring system that will be illustrated in the following sections as well.
