The most common Mingo implementation is direct to the PLC; most machines from the past 15 to 20 years have them. From these devices, Mingo can gather data from 100+ different protocols and begin tracking essential metrics like downtime by reason, cycle times, etc. in real-time. In some cases, if a machine lacks connectivity, we’ll pull data directly from internal sensors and work hands-on with your IT to establish a secure network connection. A simple wireless sensor device can send data directly to the Mingo IoT Gateway.
