Company Description
Cognex Corporation is the world leading provider of vision systems, vision software, vision sensors and surface inspection systems used in manufacturing automation. Cognex is also a leader in industrial ID readers. Cognex vision helps companies improve product quality, eliminate production errors, lower manufacturing costs, and exceed consumer expectations for high quality products at an affordable price.

Adroit Technologies is a privately held software development company that has been developing award winning real-time software for the industrial automation markets for over 25 years. The principal activities of the company are product development, consulting and solutions development, primarily in the industrial sector. Year founded: 1989 Revenue: $11 - 100 million (2014 est.)

Beckhoff implements open automation systems based on PC Control technology. Products that can be used as separate components or integrated into a complete and seamless control system are available for all industries.

Eurotech is a global company focusing on embedded computers and Pervasive Computing, which combines three key factors: the miniaturisation of computers capable of processing information; their spread in the real world - in buildings and machinery, on board vehicles, on persons and in the environment; and their ability to network and communicate. Year founded: 1992 Revenue: $69 million (2014) BIT: ETH

Samsara builds sensor systems that combine wireless sensors with remote networking and cloud-based analytics - all in an easy-to-use, software-centric solution. Samsara believes that by making sensors simple to deploy and their data easy to consume, customers will be able to deploy them by the thousands, and in places they've never been used before.
Terepac was founded in 2004 to commercialize breakthrough innovations which over­come these limitations through an entirely new paradigm for assembly, integration and packaging of electronic products. The company’s revolutionary technologies enable sophisticated microelectron­ics to be printed on flexible substrates at a fraction of the size and cost of creating conventional circuits. Entire devices with microprocessors, memory, and sensors can be reduced to less than a millimeter square, thinner than paper, and flexible enough to bend around a pencil – with no sacrifice in performance.
Xerafy designs and manufactures the world's toughest RFID tags to power Industrial IoT applications in Manufacturing, Aerospace, Oil & Gas, Automotive, and Healthcare. A member of RAIN RFID, our technology has been distinguished by EY, Frost & Sullivan, AIconics, and Red Herring. Xerafy operates in the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific regions. The Xerafy team came together to develop a breakthrough Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) design. Unlike others, it would take advantage of the metal in its surrounding, instead of being limited by it.
S3 ID manufactures ATEX certified, patented and proven in use products for the automation of Person On Board(POB), Person On Site(POS), Muster and Personnel Tracking for the oil, gas and petrochemical industries. The products raise the standards of global HSE within the industries.

With Indu-Sol diagnostic tools, clients have the ability to test the current quality status of their network and to eliminate errors - simply, quickly and by their own hand. Increase the liability and stability of their fieldbus system by analyzing the logical and physical communication - temporarily or permanently. To provide you a well-rounded product range we added essential infrastructure components for all established networks, as well as trainings and measuring services – everything from one source.

IoT Solutions
Cognex machine vision and barcode reading tools enable companies around the world to improve assembly verification, eliminate defects, automate production and identify challenging barcodes reliably across a wide range of industries and applications.

Andoit Technologies believes that in the year 2020, the world will be more connected, wireless networks will connect more machines than people and M2M technology will help us to be more energy and cost efficient, safer and more secure. This is the era of connected intelligence. With over 25 years’ experience in delivering scalable SCADA solutions into industries such as water and waste water, utilities, oil and gas, mining, telecommunications and a host of other industries, Adroit Technologies was placed to leverage its SCADA solution and build the Adroit M2M platform. Adroit’s Agent/Object architecture within the I/O Server offers a lot more built-in functionality such as scripting, transacting data into databases etc. saving users massive development time.

The purpose of Industry 4.0 is to make manufacturing more flexible, efficient and sustainable through communication and intelligence, thus increasing the competitiveness of German industry. One major component of this approach is control technology, which is still far from reaching its full potential. Improved communication methodologies and the rising convergence of information and automation technologies will deliver significant progress – something Beckhoff has always focused on with its PC-based control technology and fieldbus communication. Beckhoff provides the foundational technologies and tools needed today to implement Industrie 4.0 concepts and Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity, all via PC-based control. TwinCAT engineering and control software packages are available for the creation of applications such as Big Data, pattern recognition as well as condition or power monitoring, in addition to traditional control tasks – which can sustainably increase production and engineering efficiency as a result.

Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to Machine (M2M) focus on transforming bits of data collected at the edge of a pervasive distributed system into actionable information and knowledge for business decision makers and end users. These transformations are driving the biggest change in industry since the steam engine! One of the most important aspects of IoT vision is that smart objects communicate effectively with each other and with applications residing in data centers or the cloud. Eurotech develops and offers the technical building blocks required to build distributed systems of devices and sensors to be effectively interconnected with IT infrastructures. Eurotech solutions are a combination of hardware, Firmware, operating systems, programming frameworks and external infrastructure that enable customers focus on their core activities.
