MAJiK Systems and BehrTech bring IoT connectivity to legacy PLCs
BehrTech™ and MAJiK Systems have signed a strategic partnership
Auto extracted Text……BehrTech™ and MAJiK Systems have signed a strategic partnership to bring wireless connectivity to legacy Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC).
Together with BehrTech’s MYTHINGS™ wireless connectivity platform and MAJiK’s PLC data monitoring and analytics software suite, the integrated PLC solution provides robust, long-range, and scalable connectivity for PLC data communications in remote and complex industrial environments.
“Together with MAJiK we are bridging the gap between information technology and operational technology across legacy systems and environments,” says Wolfgang Thieme, Chief Product Officer at BehrTech.
“This PLC integration solution enables you to tap into valuable production data that was previously inaccessible in isolated, closed-loop systems.”
The MAJiK integration platform collects critical data points (i.e. PLC tags) from brownfield PLCs. Through a connection to the MAJiK platform, a MYTHINGS transceiver reliably and securely transfers this data to a remote base station.
Data can then be relayed to an enterprise cloud platform or on-premise application system such as a Manufacturing Execution System or Enterprise Resource Planning solution for storage, analytics, and visualization.
The solution does not require PLC reprogramming and supports multiple cross-vendor PLCs and physical interfaces.
“Most legacy industrial assets, machines, and facilities are not designed to connect beyond campus networks.
This creates huge data silos,” says Jared Evans, COO at MAJiK Systems.
“Our PLC integration solution enables companies to transform their brownfield plants into digital factories without absorbing the costs and complexities of building an entirely new greenfield plant or reprogramming legacy PLCs.”
The partnership’s first deployment was at a remote mining site for a large Canadian gold and silver mining company
