1. High-axis packaging line coordinator
Controls a large packaging or case-packing line where multiple servo axes must be synchronized through EtherCAT while line data is exchanged with higher-level systems via OPC UA.
Problem SolvedEliminates separate motion and data gateways by combining 128-axis control, OPC UA, and industrial networking in one CPU.

2. Database-connected traceability cell
Runs a production cell that needs direct connection to manufacturing databases for recipe, genealogy, or lot-tracking workflows without an external PC controller.
Problem SolvedProvides embedded database connectivity and machine control in one unit, reducing integration complexity and external compute dependencies.

3. Multi-network machine automation hub
Acts as the central controller in machines requiring simultaneous EtherCAT motion control and dual EtherNet/IP communication to SCADA, MES, or remote I/O networks.
Problem SolvedConsolidates motion and plant networking into one controller, minimizing cabinet space and network bridging hardware.
