Key Features
Turn data into actionable insights
Manufacturing and logistics operations generate vast amounts of valuable data. Cognex Edge Intelligence (EI) makes sense of it all, quickly and easily.
EI brings powerful computing right to your production line. This means faster insights, clearer performance visibility, and simpler device management.
Transform raw data into actionable information that helps improve equipment effectiveness and boost throughput, all with an interface that makes advanced analytics accessible to everyone on your team.
Setting up Edge Intelligence is simple, whether on new lines or existing ones. Just connect the EI device to your network, access it through any web browser, and start collecting valuable data right away.
Need to configure multiple devices at once? The intuitive interface lets you manage several devices simultaneously without complicated setup processes. This means your production line stays running while you gain valuable insights.
See performance trends at a glance with powerful visual dashboards that make data interpretation straightforward. Edge Intelligence automatically collects the information that matters most:
- Performance trends over time
- Configuration changes
- No-read images
- Failed validation attempts
These insights help you find and address issues faster, often before they affect your operation.
Gathering and storing data from Cognex devices happens securely on Edge Intelligence hardware. When you need to share information with other systems, built-in security features help protect data integrity while connecting to industrial control systems or cloud services.
For logistics applications, the Edge Intelligence Tunnel Manager provides easy-to-use tools for vision tunnels:
- Tunnel analytics: See performance data from multiple devices in one place to improve efficiency and support revenue recovery efforts
- Simple setup: Install tunnels consistently and validate performance before going live
- Easy connections: Connect securely to Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, or SCADA systems like Ignition
Edge Intelligence turns complex data into clear, actionable insights, helping you improve operations without the barriers of complicated analytics platforms.
