[Free White Paper] Technology Column - Focusing on Sensor Interfaces! No More Confusion in Choosing IoT Gateways (Part 2 of the Sensor and IoT Devices Series)

The user-friendly and cost-effective CONPROSYS nano accelerates the digital transformation of industrial systems.

The CONPROSYS® nano series is a modular remote I/O system that allows for flexible combinations of I/O. It can be used as a PC-based remote I/O system utilizing Windows/Linux computers or as a simple remote I/O system with a PLC as the master. This low-cost remote I/O device offers overwhelming cost performance, focusing on essential functions without compromising usability. It adopts a modular design that allows for a node configuration based only on the necessary number of I/O points, minimizing waste. The CONPROSYS® nano series also provides a rich variety of I/O modules that can convert all types of signals into information, and it features an environmental design that supports a wide temperature range of -20 to 60°C. Its compact housing is designed for space-saving and can be installed in narrow locations without restriction. 【Main Features】: ● A rich variety of I/O modules that convert all types of signals into information. ● Modular design that allows for unit configuration based only on necessary functions and I/O points. ● Ethernet-based low-cost remote I/O that focuses on essential functions without compromising usability. ● Environmental design that can be installed in any location, with a space-saving design suitable for narrow spaces.

Start with 50,000 yen for IoT, offering a one-stop solution from IoT gateways to HMI, VTC functions, and cloud services!

The CONPROSYS series provides a one-stop solution for the necessary IoT gateway, software (monitoring functions, simple processing and control functions, etc.), and upper servers that make up M2M/IoT solutions. It collects input and output from various sensors and PLC data through the controller, allowing data to be accumulated on the upper server. The upper server also offers various software development kits, including Contec cloud services, on-premises data collection software, and extended SDKs. Additionally, users can build monitoring screens using the HMI software standardly equipped in the controller. Furthermore, various task processing can be incorporated using the built-in VTC function, without the need for knowledge of programming languages or special development environments.

The "Mechanical Stitch Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact to the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

On November 6th (Thursday) to 7th (Friday), 2025, we held the "Human Body Day 2025" at the NAC Image Technology Akasaka Multi-Purpose Space. We have uploaded videos of the highlights from each company and the presentations that took place on the day to our website. We encourage you to take a look. ---[Report on Human Body Day 2025 is here]------------------- https://info.nacinc.jp/jintaiday2025-report ------------------------------------------------------------------------- On the day of the event, participants were able to experience a wide range of products in a hands-on session format, including motion capture, force plates, eye tracking, and human body analysis software. We received numerous comments from attendees expressing high satisfaction, saying, "It was great to gain various information all at once," which makes us very happy. NAC Image Technology will continue to provide "valuable products to our customers." We hope you will join us for our next event as well.
