ADLINK Technology, a global provider of edge computing solutions, announced that its intelligent industrial gateway has been adopted for the IoT tire management system developed in collaboration between Michelin Japan Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "Michelin") and SoftBank Corp. (hereinafter "SoftBank"). The "Michelin TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Cloud Service" is the first practical implementation by a tire manufacturer in Japan, enhancing safety and efficiency in industries such as vehicle management and construction, while providing cost-saving benefits. The TPMS is a system that attaches sensors to tires to detect air pressure and internal tire temperature, issuing warnings when these parameters fall outside of specified limits. ADLINK's industrial IoT gateway, the MXE-110i, offers a highly compact form factor with versatile RF connectivity and a fanless rugged structure, functioning as an in-vehicle communication device.

ADLINK has released the ETX-BT module, demonstrating its ongoing commitment and support for customers implementing designs based on the ETX computer-on-module form factor. ETX is one of the earliest computer-on-module form factors. Although its adoption rate, over 20 years since its introduction, is only second to COM Express, the recent discontinuation of the highly popular Intel Atom N270 processor has led many users to consider replacing their ETX modules to ensure continued system operation. In such cases, a drop-in solution for ETX that provides equivalent or better performance and excellent thermal characteristics at both the hardware and software levels (among Intel products) is required to facilitate a smooth transition.

The MXE-1500, the successor to ADLINK's best-selling MXE-1300 series, features a more abundant I/O interface in the same compact chassis and offers more flexible I/O configurations. Compatible with Windows 7, the MXE-1500 is equipped with the latest generation Intel Celeron (Braswell) processor, providing image processing capabilities that exceed the previous generation products by 90% and allowing for individual video output to three displays. It offers an unparalleled price/performance ratio, making it the best choice for industrial automation applications and mass transportation systems.

The release of the latest machine environment monitoring system, MCM-100, featuring continuous data collection and vibration measurement of rotating equipment and devices 24 hours a day with the highest accuracy and sampling rate, has been announced.
