Many plants and machines have not yet arrived in the digital age. They first need to be connected in order to be able to make use of the benefits of the Industrial IoT. The solution is the IoT Gateway software that you can use for already installed machines as well as for new machines.
The IoT Gateway software makes your machine and process data more transparent. Real-time monitoring of process data such as temperature, pressure, vibration etc. ensure that your production is consistently of high quality. Rule-based analysis of specific information simplifies predictive and plannable maintenance of your plants.

browser-based configuration
You can configure and commission the IoT Gateway software quickly, conveniently and completely free of programming via the integrated web interface - without intervening in the automation logic.
connecting a variety of data sources and IT systems
We offer a variety of data sources and IT systems to choose from. You will find the perfect solution for your business.
solutions ranging from sensors to the cloud
You will find everything you need to connect your machine in our range. From sensors to hardware and software solutions.
open interfaces and manufacturer-independent solutions
The IoT Gateway software architecture is basically built on open software standards.
making machines easily and cost efficiently ready for the IoT
By using an IoT Gateway software, you can offer your customer a machine that has extensive connectivity and is therefore ideally equipped for i4.0.
boost productivity and efficiency
The IoT Gateway software makes your machine and process data more transparent. Real-time monitoring ensures consistently high quality.
Bosch Rexroth offers the right hardware for the efficient and cost-effective integration of IoT solutions – from sensors to high-performance IPCs.
In addition to the IoT Gateway software, Bosch Rexroth and Bosch Connected Industry offer the Device Portal, which enables the digital management of IoT Devices throughout the entire product life cycle. Remote access in the event of downtime and the installation of new functions and updates on local IoT Devices is made easy thanks to the Device Portal!
The IoT Gateway software is available as a stand-alone solution and as part of a Starter Kit.
The Starter Kit contains in addition to the IoT Gateway software the Production Performance Manager (PPM) from Bosch Software Innovations. The PPM merges the collected information into one visualization and forwards specified events to defined persons.
With the Starter Kit, you can find out almost immediately how ready your production facility is for Industry 4.0. The combination of expert knowledge, software, and hardware provides you with a simple and cost-efficient way of networking your machinery and systems. You can then use the new information you gain to improve your production processes and product quality.
We will work with you to develop an initial custom use case, integrate the relevant machinery into the software solution, and identify potential for optimization so as to improve your production.
Additionally, we will provide you with a hardware element in order to ensure a seamless collection and monitoring of data. We will support you in the installation of the hardware and software at a commonly defined machine. You will also learn how to integrate, digitally visualize, and optimize more production machinery, systems, and lines yourself.

More information:
At the Bosch plant in Homburg, engineers have used the IoT Gateway software to network a test facility for hydraulic valves from 2007. Thanks to new sensors that monitor the quality of the oil used, it is now possible to determine the time of the required oil change much more accurately than before. This saves time, money and protects the environment.
In addition to the IoT Gateway software, Bosch also provides the software needed to analyze, format and display data in the Bosch IoT Cloud, for example. For the test facilities in Homburg, the IoT Gateway software sends the sensor data to a PC that has been installed with standard Bosch software modules.
The Production Performance Manager (PPM) from Bosch Software Innovations is a production information and evaluation system. It records production and machine data from the networked test facility in close to real time. The module merges the information into a single visualization and forwards specified events to defined persons. Using the PPM, employees can intervene before critical situations possibly leading to system downtime arise.
Description

Automated monitoring of the ISO purity classes of the test medium (customer request) - Previously a manual process
Continuous status monitoring of formatting units (filters) and automated alerts and ordering of maintenance - Previously a manual process
Result
ROI < 1.5 years
Maintenance costs -25 %
OEE +5 %
Complexity for manual testing -20 %
