Automation technology most often involves hardware components from many different manufacturers combined in a system. It used to be that every manufacturer went his own way when it comes to passing process data up to the software level. This is true of both the physical communications path and the data format. To get away from […]
Can you imagine retrofitting sensors in your system, capturing signals for further processing, connecting self-contained systems to each other or incorporating additional actuators? No problem! And if needed W&T can also implement monitoring and recording of data points, creating application-specific visualisations or sending alarms for defined events. In addition they offer the ability to link […]
Web Thermometer and Web Sensors for °C, % RH, hPa, VOC and CO2. Measure, log and report The Web Thermometer is a measuring device which monitors temperatures, detect and collect various sensor values and makes the values available in the network. The device includes an integrated data logger and numerous Web and network services for […]
Microwall application example: Isolating a CNC milling machine. In our company we use a CNC milling machine for fabricating prototypes and small series. A Windows 7 embedded standard with the latest patch level runs on the control computer which is incorporated into our production network. Since Microsoft will no longer provide expanded support for this operating […]
USB devices simple and fast anywhere in the network. The USB Server Gigabit 2.0 integrates a USB device for industry use via TCP/IP Ethernet into the network. The devices connected to the USB Server Gigabit 2.0 behave just as if they were directly connected to your Windows PC. TCP/IP-Ethernet <> USB Provide USB devices in […]
Security Small firewalls protect machines and systems Author / Editor: Martin Reimann / Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Reinhold Schäfer Software components of machines are increasingly becoming targets for attacks on the Internet. Small firewalls can be used to isolate the machines by segmenting traffic and increasing security in the corporate network. The Microwall can be installed […]
One widely used technique for improving security in corporate networks is to subdivide them into smaller segments by department. Communication between these subnets is monitored, controlled and logged by firewall routers. Attackers and malware that succeed in penetrating one of the subnets are prevented from further spreading by packet filters. One way of further increasing […]
By Isolating with Microwall (Firewall), you increase security in your network – simply and effectively The segmentation of individual machine islands is a consistent form of segmentation: Small firewalls, such as the Microwall, isolate machines in their own data network segment. All communication to and from this island will initially be stopped on a […]
Australian organisations, including governments and businesses, are currently being targeted by a sophisticated foreign “state-based” hackers. Companies need to make sure they take the best possible protections. As data protection becomes increasingly critical, it may be time to ask whether your business has the right infrastructure in place. TE Automation offers a range of products to suit most […]
Small firewalls protect devices and machines in the network The Microwall VPN from network specialist Wiesemann & Theis (W&T) sets the tone for a new series of easy to use security products for industry and manufacturing. This miniature firewall isolates potentially susceptible or untrustworthy devices and machines in their own network segments. Communication with these secure islands in the […]
