5G Remote Monitoring Solution for Industrial Robots

Applications and Cases

InHand IR624 5G industrial router monitoring robots on factory floor

Key Takeaways

With industrial automation and robots increasing, manufacturers need more stable, efficient lines. Traditional on-site monitoring lacks real-time visibility and diagnostics. InHand’s IR624 5G industrial router enables high-speed, reliable remote monitoring.

Background

With the rise of industrial automation and increased use of industrial robots, the manufacturing sector demands higher production line stability and efficiency. Traditional on-site monitoring methods face challenges such as geographical limitations, lack of real-time monitoring, and insufficient diagnostic capabilities. This has created an urgent need for flexible and efficient solutions like remote monitoring of industrial robots.

Customer Requirements

Real-time Monitoring
and Data Collection
The factory requires real-time monitoring of industrial robots, including operational status, work efficiency, production speed, and fault conditions, while collecting key production data for analysis.
Fault Warning and
Remote Diagnosis
The solution must deliver fault warnings, promptly detecting potential issues and enabling remote diagnosis to help engineers quickly identify and resolve problems.

Solution

InHand IR624 5G industrial router enabling remote monitoring of industrial robots on a factory floor.

Industrial robots comprise a robot arm, drive system, control system, and human-machine interaction system. The controller, PLC, and human-machine interaction system connect to the IR624 5G industrial router via Ethernet or serial port. The IR624 enables high-speed data transmission, sending real-time robot status to the remote robot data center through a reliable 5G network. The data center analyzes status information, production capacity, and fault alarms in real-time, supporting predictive maintenance and repair planning. For remote maintenance, devices can be managed and operated seamlessly through the InHand DeviceLive platform.
