AutomationDirect has added the next generation of the popular C-more HMI product line. The CM5 HMI series offers lower cost, high-performance HMIs in sizes from 4 inches to an impressive 22 inches. These HMIs have an amazing 1.6 GHz processor in the larger units (10” and above), 43 Mbytes of memory, and provide much better trending, extra data storage, faster communication, and improved file types including jpegs.

The CM5 panels come with a host of communication ports for plug-and-play connections…

Facing changes caused by the global pandemic, businesses now have a more pressing need to accelerate their digital transformation program. Cloud integration plays a key role in this transformation, yet technical and financial barriers often get in the way of implementation. To help with this, Weintek introduces their new Weintek Cloud Service or "Weincloud". Comprising of EasyAccess 2.0, Weintek's existing remote access service, and the new cloud-based Dashboard service, Weincloud aims to help…

Product Introduction
As the Industrial 4.0 revolution gathers pace, users are eagerly searching for ways to retrofit legacy factory installations with smart capabilities. To help with this, Weintek have integrated their CODESYS and IIoT Gateway into a single product, the cMT-CTRL01 - IIoT Programmable Logic Controller. This new model with built-in CODESYS, in addition to working with all iR modules also features IIoT Gateway protocol translation and the EasyAccess remote access service, making it…

We're exhibiting at the 3rd Annual Industry 4.0 Summit & Expo, Manchester 10 - 11 April 2019. UK's premier event for the 4th industrial revolution. We've exhibited previously at this event in 2017 & 2018.

Integrating miscellaneous factory automation equipment is rarely an easy task since often each machine uses a different controller. When integrating with other IT systems, the variety of protocols often presents a challenge. In 1995, the OPC standard was released to address this issue, in 2006, OPC UA (Unified Architecture) made it possible to get the same information from machines regardless of operating system.

The cMT-G02 communication gateway is not only equipped with an Ethernet port, but…

We're Exhibiting at the Factories of The Future Exhibition in Manchester Feb 28-March 2nd 2018.  The exhibition is running alongside the Industry 4.0 Summit - we're on Stand Q15 - you can register here for free to attend - come along and discuss how we can help you to quickly develop & build your IIoT & implement with new and existing machines.

Hot on the heels of the cMT3072 is the cMT-HDMI, the proven, popular cMT architecture with an HDMI output.

The cMT-HDMI is an HMI without a screen - the screen can be an HDMI screen such as a TV or industrial monitor.

As well as the rich cMT features, the cMT-HDMI also offers several improvements over the mTV-100 with support for different resolution screens and native support for several industry standard touchscreens (list of currently tested models below - connection to the touchscreen is…

Running parallel to the Industry 4.0 Summit, the Factories of the Future EXPO will showcase the latest products and services for Industry 4.0, IIoT, smart factories and the future of manufacturing. The expo will be attended by manufacturing professionals from the UK & continental Europe  and will givethem an opportunity to see the latest advances/ new technologies in automation, robotics, software, sensors, virtual reality, augmented reality and other related areas.

We will be showing products…

We're pleased to announce the launch of a new member of the cMT Series of HMI, the cMT3090, a welcome addition to the cMT range alongside the cMT3151 15" HMI offering a good alternative to applications that previously would have require a cMT-SVR-100 & a cMT-iV5 panel. Physically similar in size and appearance to the existing MT8090XE, the cMT3090 boasts a built-in CloudHMI server enabling access from iOS or Android device, or PC running the  cMTViewer application. With an EasyAccess 2.0 licence…

In IIoT applications, data integration plays a very important role, to achieve data integration, it’s essential that communication between onsite machines and upper layer data management systems (SCADA, ERP...etc.) is seamless, however, in factories where very often each controller uses a different communication protocol, data integration is challenging.

With more than 20 years of experience of HMI development, the Weintek R&D Team have released the IIoT Smart Communication Gateway: cMT-G01 as a…
