Bridge E Summer 2023 Release

[Berlin, September 2023] – "The entire R3 team has been working hard to bring you improvements to the Bridge E product itself, as well as tools and support based on the hands-on experience of our various installations," explains Florian Bonanati, one of two CEOs of R3 Solutions GmbH.

The R3 Solutions Bridge E is a wireless Ethernet bridge that makes machines and robots flexible. Based on R3’s EchoRing technology and standard Wi-Fi chips, Bridge E ensures ultra-reliable low latency data transmission. It can be used in a wide range of industrial use cases where cables are in the way or wear out.

The Bridge E Summer 2023 Release enables facilitation of IP address management, offers improvements to the plant configuration tools and a facelift of the user interface. It includes new tools for infrastructure-based wireless network monitoring with real-time alerts and integration with facility monitoring systems alongside the R3 health monitor. In addition, application notes and example code for the smooth integration of deterministic event-based functions such as seamless roaming and antenna switching into the engineering tools of PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT and SafetyNet/P are provided.

The Bridge E Summer 2023 Release is compatible with all Bridge E devices. See the R3 website for release details. Customers will also find a contact form there for their questions on how to benefit from the various improvements.
