A management toolset for network installation, operation, maintenance, and diagnostics stages for the entire machine network's life cycle
Firewall policies control network traffic inside and outside the machine, and Network Address Translation (NAT) shields the internal machine network from unauthorized activity by outside hosts.
Network Address Translation (NAT) eliminates complicated network settings in machines and greater deployment efficiency

Auto Material Handling (AMH)

AMH systems, which include the AS/RS (automatic storage and retrieval systems) and AGVs (automated guided vehicles), are modern-day “conveyer belts” that play a key role in manufacturing facilities and warehouses around the world. These machines have taken the manufacturing industry by storm and are here to stay. However, behind every successful AMH installation is a powerful wireless solution that provides the synergy between the machines and humans.

Moxa’s wireless AP solution provide all the basic building blocks of a reliable, high-performance mobile Wi-Fi network and a solution that is tailor-made for AS/RS and AGV markets.
