The cellular router plays a very important role in factory automation applications. It can connect sensors, PLCs, robots and other devices into the factory network and provide them with a reliable Internet connection. The following are some common uses of cellular routers in factory automation applications：

  Monitoring and control: The cellular router can be connected to various sensors and PLCs to monitor and control various devices and processes on the production line. It can be connected to a remote monitoring system through the Internet, enabling plant managers to monitor the operation status of the production line in real time.

  Data collection and processing: cellular router can collect and process various data on the production line, such as temperature, humidity, pressure, flow, etc. It can transmit data to the cloud or local server to provide data support for the optimization and improvement of the production line.

  Security controls: cellular router provides network security controls to protect plant networks from malware and network attacks. It can set up firewall, VPN and other security measures to ensure the security and stability of the factory network.

  Wireless network coverage: The cellular router provides wireless network coverage, providing reliable wireless Internet connectivity for mobile devices and robots on the production line. It can support multiple wireless protocols, such as WiFi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, etc.

  Remote maintenance: the cellular router can support remote maintenance, enabling plant managers to maintain and troubleshoot equipment at different locations. It can be connected to the remote maintenance system through the Internet to achieve remote collaboration and fault handling.

  In general, cellular router plays an important role in factory automation applications, which can improve the efficiency of production lines, reduce costs, and provide real-time monitoring and remote maintenance for factory managers.
