The controlled bridge to production equipment
Every connected printer or production machine communicates with MainChain through a licensed Edge Server. It keeps equipment behind the customer boundary while applying authorised workflows and returning permitted production events.
What problem does it solve?
Directly exposing industrial equipment to a cloud platform creates security, interoperability and operational-control risks.
How does it work?
The Edge Server receives authorised jobs through MainChain, communicates with approved machine connectors and returns production status and evidence without exposing the machine directly.
Operational and economic outcomes
- Keep machines behind the operational boundary
- Standardise controlled equipment connectivity
- Support private-cloud and on-premise deployments
- Return authorised execution status
