SUCCESS CASE
Ansell Portugal in Vila Nova de Poiares, Coimbra district, produces high quality gloves of various types and for the most varied applications, always striving to be at the forefront of technology, especially with regard to the IIOT concept, for monitoring the production of its machines.
For 125 years, Ansell has provided the most advanced protection solutions for millions of people at work and at home, keeping them out of harm's way. Its experience, innovative products and advanced technology offer its customers peace of mind and confidence that no other brand can. Ansell's mission is to deliver innovative security solutions reliably, creating a world protected by Ansell.
In partnership with Sistcentro and F.Fonseca, a wireless signal acquisition solution was developed to monitor factory production levels using Advantech's Wise modules.

It is impossible, too dificult or expensive to install cables?
The solution cloud be to transmit data using a wireless solution.
Industrial wireless systems are totally reliable and can be installed in scenarios where electromagnetic noise interferes, without having to worry about communication failures.

The main purpose of the application was to identify and monitor the downtime of approximately 400 machines and the production levels of each machine.
It was possible to carry out an initial test with a single machine to confirm that the digital signals were being acquired correctly. The software was configured and connected to the client's database.
Acquisition modules were installed in each of the glove production machines, which communicate wirelessly with various Wi-Fi Access Points, and these were mounted on an upper armature that exists for passing cables, lighting, etc.
Elsewhere there is an industrial server PC which also has a Wi-Fi card to receive data from all the Access Points. An Ethernet connection then runs from the PC to the Switch and from there to the rest of the factory network, so that the information from the factory floor reaches the customer's database.

Applied products of Advantech:
WISE-4051-AE (Module)
WA-P83-U50HE (SCADA Software)
UNO-1483G-434AE (Industrial computer)
EKI-6332GN-AE (Wi-Fi Access point)
EKI-5626CI-AE (Industrial switch)
UNO-IPS2730-AE (industrial Intelligent Power System)
PCM-24S33G-AE (PC Wi-Fi board)

WA-P83-U50HE (SCADA Software)
UNO-1483G-434AE (Industrial computer)
EKI-6332GN-AE (Wi-Fi Access point)
EKI-5626CI-AE (Industrial switch)
UNO-IPS2730-AE (industrial Intelligent Power System)
PCM-24S33G-AE (PC Wi-Fi board)
The proof of concept began with an initial test on a single machine to confirm that the digital signals were being acquired correctly.
Later, after several modules had been installed, the SCADA software was configured. This ensured that the data from the shop floor was communicated to the company's ERP and then displayed on various screens in different locations for workers to see.

In this way, Ansell and tis employees now have a real idea of the efficiency of their processes and machines.

Industrial Ethernet switches EKI-5626C/CI - Advantech
Advantech's EKI-5629C/CI and EKI-5626C/CI are the world's first convergence switches for process control and IT network management.
This series uses Modbus/TCP to communicate with SCADA software and SNMP to communicate with the NMS (Network Management System) at the same time, thus allowing full control of the devices for both control engineers and IT. The devices include QoS on each port for deterministic data transmission, allowing the highest priority ports to prioritize traffic coming from them and delay less urgent data on the remaining ports.
