congatec, a leader in embedded and edge computing technologies, showcases its high-performance computing ecosystem for the digital transformation of smart factories.

From March 12 to 14, congatec will participate in the '2025 Smart Factory & Automation Industry Exhibition' held at COEX in Seoul, booth number D316, presenting the latest application-ready solution platform for automation and machine building.

This exhibition introduces a new level of application-ready ecosystem that can simplify module-based application design, enhance security, and shorten time to market through the expanded capabilities of 'aReady.COM' and 'aReady.IOT'.

congatec will also present its range of optimized, standards-based Computer-on-Modules (COMs) and best practices for edge server design for production.

congatec's aready.COM strategy strengthens the computer-on-module ecosystem with pre-configured application-ready software building blocks.

Customers can configure Aready.COM via a real-time hypervisor to integrate multiple functions such as real-time control, HMI (Human Machine Interface), AI, and IoT connectivity into a single module.

Also, officially certifiedSupport for operating systems such as ctrlX from Bosch Rexroth and Buntu Pro can reduce integration complexity and accelerate time to market.

Aready.IOT provides powerful software building blocks for secure IoT connectivity from COM to the cloud.

Preconfigured building blocks enable communication with machines, systems, devices, and sensors via protocols such as OPCUA, MQTT, and REST.

This enables users to implement maintenance and management, including data collection, remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and increased overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

It also provides the option to process data directly at the edge for storage and visualization, enabling quick and easy implementation of automated processes such as data analysis, software updates, and task execution based on specific requirements.

At this exhibition, you can experience the overall functions of Aready.IOT through a demonstration directly at the booth.
