groov® EPIC
About groov® EPIC®
The world’s first Edge Programmable Industrial Controller.
Now you can collect, process, view, and exchange data where it’s produced—at the edge of the network. When you work with data at the edge, you don’t have to worry about latency, and you have one single source of truth. Securely share data among databases, cloud platforms, web services, PLC systems, and other systems and equipment, using open, modern communication standards. Built-in security features include configurable device firewall, VPN, encryption, user authentication, and more. See how groov EPIC fits in your system architecture. Connect with legacy PLCs and much more using Ignition Edge® or full Ignition from Inductive Automation®. Move data efficiently, decrease network load, and reduce IT reliance by using MQTT publish/subscribe communications. Visualise data on the controller’s integral touchscreen, an external HDMI monitor, or from any web browser or mobile device.
Why choose groov® EPIC®?
Simpler, less expensive, more secure.
An edge programmable industrial controller, groov® EPIC® is much more than a PLC or a PAC. Opto 22 designed it from the ground up as both a reliable real-time industrial controller and a processor to collect, process, display, and exchange data.
groov® EPIC® talks directly to field devices, other control systems, databases, cloud services, and a lot more. EPIC helps solve the challenges of complexity, security, and cost.
More power, more possibilities.
From state-of-art quad-core processor to guarenteed-for-life I/O, groov® EPIC® hardware has everything you expect from Opto 22’s 45 years of experience in automartion – and a lot more.
groov® EPIC® gives you guaranteed-for-life I/O, a flexible Linux®-based processor with gateway functions, high-resolution touchscreen, two independent network interfaces, USB and HDMI ports, and software including control programming, groov® View for device-independent HMI, Node-RED for simple data flows, and Ignition Edge® for OPC-UA drivers and MQTT/Sparkplug communications—and more.
