From fixed machines to autonomous coordination
Robots, AGVs and AMRs share process information and reduce dependence on manual direction.
INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION & ROBOTICS
Keep automated operationsconnected and moving.Keep automatedoperations connectedand moving.
In factories where robots, AGVs and AMRs, machine vision and equipment monitoring coordinate in real time, connectivity is part of the production system. IDY engineers radio conditions, communication paths, edge processing and recovery operations as one industrial connectivity infrastructure.
01 / CONNECTED PRODUCTION
Connectivity becomes partof the production system.Connectivity becomespart of theproduction system.
As automation advances, equipment decisions and coordination increasingly depend on communications. The objective extends beyond fixed production cells to mobile systems, video and existing equipment across the factory.
From visual checks to real-time inspection
Connect high-resolution video and AI processing so quality decisions keep pace with production.
From fixed wiring to adaptable production
Allow connectivity to evolve with layout changes and equipment expansion.
02 / STOP FACTORS
Healthy machines still stopwhen connectivity fails.Healthy machinesstill stop whenconnectivity fails.
Coverage gaps, interference, mobility interruptions, upstream outages and variations in bandwidth or latency can stop an automated process even while individual machines remain healthy.
Coverage gaps and reflections
Metal, machinery, people and moving materials continuously reshape factory radio conditions.
Roaming and brief interruptions
AGVs, AMRs and mobile robots require continuity across their entire operating path.
Video and control contention
Concentrated high-resolution video traffic can constrain critical equipment communications.
Delayed recovery after a fault
Downtime grows when fault detection is automated but restoration still depends on manual action.
Reduce production downtime through communications engineering.Reduce production downtimethrough communicationsengineering.
03 / ONE PRODUCTION ARCHITECTURE
Unify production systemsand connectivity.Unify productionsystems andconnectivity.
Production systems and AI, edge connectivity control and field equipment are treated as one architecture. Response time, capacity, mobility and resilience are assigned according to each workload.
MES, AI and cloud
Upper systems for production planning, quality, maintenance and analytics.
Edge and connectivity control
Local processing, path observation, link selection, fault detection and recovery.
Robots, AGVs, AMRs, cameras and equipment
The production floor executing control, movement, inspection and monitoring.
04 / INDUSTRIAL CONNECTIVITY
Go beyond local 5G.Engineer continuity into production.Go beyondLocal 5G.Engineer continuityinto production.
The architecture is not limited to local 5G. IDY combines 5G, LTE, existing LAN and edge processing around field conditions, covering RF and antenna evaluation, fault detection, path switching and recovery.
CONNECTED PRODUCTIONKeep automated production connected
Engineer coverage and uplink capacity
Design coverage, capacity and roaming for mobility, video and equipment communications.
Connect factory and external operations
Combine local 5G, public 5G, LTE and existing access around workload and operating conditions.
Move decisions closer to production
Process video and equipment data on site to reduce upstream concentration and response delay.
Validate the radio environment
Evaluate network conditions, products, RF, antennas and installation as one working system.
Latency, jitter, capacity and switching time depend on access technology, product model, network configuration, radio conditions, connected equipment and processing path.
05 / VALIDATE AND SCALE
Validate in the field,then scale with control.Validate in the field,then scalewith control.
Rather than replacing an entire factory at once, begin with the processes carrying the greatest downtime impact, validate requirements and radio conditions, then move from proof of concept to controlled deployment and operational review.
Map processes and requirements
Identify critical processes, devices, data volume, response needs and mobility routes.
Measure radio and communications
Evaluate interference, coverage gaps, uplink quality, latency and jitter in the field.
Run a controlled proof of concept
Verify equipment links, edge processing, switching and recovery on a selected process.
Expand and improve operations
Update observation and connectivity as equipment and layouts evolve.
