XLINK Injection Molding Gateway

XLINK Injection Molding Gateway

*Making Injection Molding Machine Connections Easy
*

The XLINK Injection Molding Gateway is a dedicated data acquisition gateway for injection molding machines. It is designed to solve the current pain points of data collection from injection molding equipment: numerous brands, machines without interfaces, non-uniform protocols, and difficult wired network installation. It helps customers quickly and conveniently collect injection molding machine data.
XLINK provides a unified protocol. Applications only need to interface once, and customers can then freely choose any device already adapted by XLINK. It supports Wi-Fi and 4G, facilitating installation and enabling remote maintenance.

Manufacturing Data Collection (MDC)

Real-time Data
Process Data
Operation Logs
Machine Alarms
Production SPC Data

Home / Variable View | Process Table | Process Dictionary | Process SPC | Real-time Data

Data Transmission Interfaces
Uses MQTT, OPC UA, Modbus TCP, and HTTP protocols to interface with MES.
MQTT pushes data via 5 topics: real-time data every 20 seconds; process, alarms, logs, and operating mode changes are pushed upon change.
MQTT Topic: /{Mqtt prefix}/{deviceId}/tech

Variable Mapping
The gateway provides a standard, unified protocol and also supports variable mapping, making it easy to integrate with existing systems.

Simple Configuration
Web page configuration for IP addresses and various machine models.
Unified Interface
All models use a unified variable definition. The application only needs to integrate once to connect to all machine models collected by the gateway.
Multiple Communication Methods
Supports Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and 4G data transmission. Wireless deployment is quick and easy.
Industrial-Grade Gateway
The gateway is industrial-grade, supporting a wide power input range of 9–24 V.
Easy Maintenance
Supports web-based firmware updates, remote maintenance, and other functions.
