Challenge: Security, operational reliablility and ease of use of setting up remote system

Gröninger supplies their systems globally to, among others, Vietnam, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Israel. To maintain these systems, it requires that the operator has a certain degree of technical education. Therefore, Gröninger has equipped their machinery with remote access to enable remote site support and active monitoring of the systems installed globally. In the past Gröninger was using several ways to connect to their systems, but it became difficult to manage, it required maintenance, it was unreliable and considered unsecure by the end customer. Therefore security, operational reliability and ease of use of setting up the remote system were very important criteria.

Solution: Fast, easy, reliable and stable connectivity by Tosibox

Gröninger discovered the highly secure Tosibox connectivity solution that is easy to set up even without special IT skills. The company equipped its machinery in remote locations with TOSIBOX® Locks, enabling reliable remote control and maintenance. Behind each TOSIBOX® Lock there are about 30 to 40 devices such as PLCs, HMI and control cabinets that are connected and directly accessible via a TOSIBOX® Key. In case Gröninger’s customer wants insights into their system, Gröninger can share remote access via an additional sub key. This way access management remains very easy and secure.

“Security, operational reliability and ease of use are important to us. Tosibox solution perfectly answers to all our needs.”
