Advanced MTConnect Connectivity Board for Legacy Machine Tools, IIoT Devices



Memex Inc. offers MTC-One, designed to be an advanced and easy to configure MTConnect connectivity board for legacy machine tools and IIoT devices.

Dave Edstrom, CTO of MEMEX Inc., author of "MTConnect: To Measure Is To Know," as well as former President and Chairman of the MTConnect Institute, stated, "The MTC-One is our third generation of MTConnect connectivity boards and clearly addresses `the last meter' challenge, where MEMEX leaves no machine behind when it comes to legacy connectivity on the plant floor. The MTC-One truly is the Swiss army knife of legacy connectivity solutions to connect to any device on the plant floor and then have that device MTConnect enabled."

MTC-One features include:

  • ARM SOM microprocessor capable of running Linux, MTConnect adapters, agents and other IIoT software such as complex event processing (CEP) as well as other applications that might be needed to connect to and process data from devices
  • NXP/Freescale i.MX 6DualLite, ARM Cortex-A9, 1.0 GHz, Dual Core, 512 MB DDR3 (64 Bit), 4 GB eMMC (8 Bit), two 10/100 Mbit IEEE1588 Ethernet ports
  • Connectivity Options - wireless (Wi-Fi b/g/n), up to 110 USB devices, four USB Host (Type A) connectors, USB (Micro A-B connector) diagnostic port, eight onboard digital inputs (this provides optical isolation between the MTC-One and the device being monitored, which allows the MTC-One and the device to be electrically isolated), two onboard digital outputs and analog I/O interfaces, as well as onboard Fieldbus/Industrial Ethernet Protocol Interface
  • Wide variety of option sensors ranging from power monitoring, eight channel ADC, thermocouple, accelerometer, RH sensor, digital input, DIO and others
  • Industrial quality with onboard real-time clock with battery backup, graceful shutdown circuitry to prevent data loss, high voltage surge protection, Micro SD Card Slot and DVI-I display connector, which can also convert to HDMI for connecting to shop displays
  • Flexible installation choices with either magnetic, screw or din rail mount and can take 6-27 VDC as its power input.

"A clear differentiator for the MTC-One is the configuration and transformation logic software that easily handles the capture of signals and protocols and then passes that data to the transformation logic layer (such as the well understood ladder logic) and finally the ability to easily map this transformed data to the MTConnect standard," said a company spokesperson.
