FactoryTalk® Optix™ is a new software platform that you can access from your browser or download to your computer. It delivers unmatched flexibility, scalability and interoperability and enables you to design and deploy HMI and edge applications that meet customer needs. This new platform includes features such as multi-user collaboration, web-based design and test, integrated version control, and edge connectivity to enable data access and contextualization.

OptixPanel™ graphic terminals are sealed HMI appliances that come pre-loaded with FactoryTalk® Optix™ software licenses. This means that the device is an all-in-one solution that’s ready to run at first power-up and costs less than an industrial PC. The pre-installed, closed OS reduces risk in implementation and maintenance. OptixPanel graphic terminals run FactoryTalk Optix and FactoryTalk Remote Access software, providing flexibility, scalability and enhanced connectivity.

FactoryTalk® Remote Access™ provides secure remote connectivity, so you can view, assist, manage, and troubleshoot from anywhere in the world. Respond to customer needs faster and apply the right skills and resources at the right time—with no need for travel.

ASEM™ 6300 Industrial PCs are available in box and panel form and allow for greater customization compared to the OptixPanel™ graphic terminals. Innovate with FactoryTalk® Optix™ software and seamlessly deploy your HMI solution to the ASEM™ 6300 device that best fits customer needs.

The Embedded Edge Compute Module builds on Rockwell Automation’s recent history of enabling PC or compute functionality with the power of Logix. The Embedded Edge Compute Module provides a packaged solution for users to process visual data locally and remotely while maintaining the capability to grow and scale your system as their needs change. This Embedded Edge Compute release comes with an XS FactoryTalk Optix Runtime license and a FactoryTalk Remote Access Runtime Pro license.

Helping Improve and Optimize Operations

Like many manufacturers, frequent employee turnover and a lack of technical skills are the primary challenges facing CRG’s customers. But in today’s fast-paced production environments, they no longer have weeks or months to spend training new hires.

“Companies don’t want to buy several different machines to do their packaging,” explained Kevin Houk, OEM Account Leader, Rockwell Automation. “They want one machine that goes from trial and travel sized products to family sized products with minimal changeover time.”
