Frequently Asked Questions
Can FlowFuse connect our PLCs to our ERP system?
Yes, FlowFuse supports virtually all industrial protocols through Node-RED's extensive ecosystem. Connect your Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Omron, or other PLCs directly to SAP, Oracle, or any ERP system.
We have mixed equipment brands on our shop floor. Can FlowFuse handle this?
Absolutely. FlowFuse acts as a universal translator between different equipment brands and protocols, allowing seamless data exchange between Siemens, Rockwell, Schneider, and other vendors.
How do we ensure production data security when connecting shop floor to business systems?
FlowFuse provides secure tunneling for device connections, encrypted data transmission using TLS/SSL, role-based access control (RBAC), and comprehensive audit logging to meet manufacturing compliance requirements.
Can our plant operators create data flows without IT support?
Yes, FlowFuse uses a visual drag-and-drop interface. Operators can build integrations between machines, SCADA, and business systems by connecting pre-built nodes - no coding required.
What if our legacy equipment doesn't support modern protocols?
FlowFuse can connect through serial converters, protocol gateways, or even manual data entry interfaces, ensuring no equipment is left behind in your digital transformation.
Do we need to shut down production to implement FlowFuse?
No, FlowFuse can be deployed alongside existing systems with read-only connections initially. Full integration can be phased in during scheduled maintenance windows.
