## Softing's New Industrial Data Integration Platform Unveiled at Hannover Messe 2026

Softing has officially launched its new platform, SDEX Suite, developed for integrated industrial connectivity and production layer data integration. This solution, which was successfully previewed at SPS 2025, will be showcased in its full version at Hannover Messe 2026 (April 20-24, Hall 15, Stand D32).

### A New Era in Industrial Data Integration with SDEX Suite

SDEX Suite combines the features of Softing's products such as uaGate, edgeGate, edgeConnector, edgeAggregator, and Secure Integration Server (SIS), offering a comprehensive platform that enables secure and scalable data exchange between the production layer and IT.

Responding to the increasing demands for data access, IT security, and efficiency with various control systems and legacy equipment in industrial production areas, this solution facilitates integration with MES, ERP, and cloud systems. It specifically provides critical data access for condition monitoring, OEE analysis, and AI-powered optimizations.

### SDEX Suite Features

• Versatile connectivity: Seamless access to PLCs, CNC machines, and other systems via OPC UA and MQTT, without requiring intervention in existing control programs.
• Data collection and processing: Structured collection, filtering, and transformation of data, making it suitable for IT and cloud applications.
• Flexible installation: Available as software on Windows and Linux/Docker platforms, or as a hardware gateway for cabinet mounting.
• High security: Full compliance with modern security standards such as SSL/TLS encryption.
• Easy configuration: User-friendly interface that requires no expertise for setting up secure and scalable data exchange.

### Future-Ready Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Data-Driven Manufacturing

SDEX Suite's open architecture allows for integration into existing infrastructures and easy scaling for cloud connectivity, advanced data analytics, and AI applications. Its compliance with standard protocols and high-security requirements provides an ideal foundation for implementing condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, and Industry 4.0 strategies.

### Live Experience in the Market and at Hannover Messe 2026

SDEX Suite is globally available and offered with a single licensing model, simplifying procurement and management, and reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO). Visitors to Hannover Messe will be able to test the platform live at Softing's stand (Hall 15, Stand D32) at the end of April.
