IIOT

Accelerate your IIoT Applications with FrameworX™

Securely enable the Industrial Internet of Things - IIoT

The FrameworX platform is currently used in many IIoT applications. Our Edge and IIoT-Gateway were created from ground-up with secure technologies. Our open and layered platform includes full MQTT with SparkplugB support. We also include a full range of PLC and device connectivity. You can run with or without HMI, and our powerful platform enables real-time analytics and data acquisition at the edge.

It’s not uncommon to hear, “This is like magic,” during Tatsoft training sessions when customers are upgrading from legacy solutions. Tasks such as design or troubleshooting can be completed in just one-tenth of the time with Tatsoft compared to traditional legacy systems.

- Control System Technologies

One of the main reasons we decided to work with Tatsoft is they have decades of experience in developing software products and understand the need to have a flexible, reliable platform on which to build applications that will last a long time.

- Renifer Systems

I can’t tell you how many people have come through this building. International groups are very interested. We like showing it off. The system is a big change from what we had; everybody appreciates it.

- Cargill Feed Safety Research Center

The other packages we looked at were either extremely long in the tooth, could only communicate with a single PLC, or were lacking in data collection capabilities (…) FrameworX also provides the tools for us to make complex animations that were essential for us to separate ourselves from the competition.

- Rite Irrigation LLC

Other key factors leading to our decision to use FrameworX were the wide range of options for displaying graphics, built-in .NET scripting for special requirements, communication flexibility, and competitive pricing.

- Water and Wastewater Industries
