"With more than 30 years experience. IDX's core business is enabling data connectivity between industrial systems with simple but cost-effective industrial communications solutions."

Many Technologies

IDX has extensive experience in providing cost effective industrial communications solutions to both plant and factory environments. 

IDX has practical experience with most industrial fieldbus and protocols including but not limited to AS-interface (ASi), Controller Area Network (CAN), CANOpen, DeviceNet, Foundation Fieldbus (FF), InterBus, MODBUS TCP, MODBUS Serial, MODUBS RTU, OPC, PROFIBUS, PROFINET and Serial (RS232, RS485 & RS422).

Along with experience in DCOM, Web-Services, .NET and Sharepoint.

Industrial Requirements

We understand the industrial requirements for relevant, accurate and timely data especially in real-time applications. We have an in-depth grasp of the physics of network operations and solutions for balancing network load and optimising throughput while still offering deterministic realtime behaviour. 

Partnering with Major System Vendors

We work closely with most major vendors (ABB, Endress+Hauser, Rockwell, OSIsoft, Siemens, Wonderware & Yokogawa) and their various products suites. We have faced and have work arounds for common communications head-aches like setting up OPC connections across domains, implementing smart buffering to prevent PLC's being overcome by the communications burden on multiple client subscriptions and many, many more...

Customised solutions available

IDX is able to cost-effectively develop modern "plug-in" wrappers for legacy applications and devices so that they can integrate with more modern systems.
