We are proud of the collaboration with Advantech, supplier of industrial and embedded systems, in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Under a so-called 'focus channel' partnership agreement, we will from now on distribute Advantech's technology, with a strong focus on the company's acclaimed AI product portfolio. For Advantech, the agreement is a new example of its approach to working with specialized partner companies. This makes customer and sector-specific solutions possible for a very broad spectrum of applications.
As a global leader in AI, Advantech has a comprehensive range of edge AI modules, AI inference systems, edge intelligence servers and IoT gateways. These are all aimed at the accelerated deployment of Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) in the rapidly growing market.
As a System Integrator, we supply systems for applications that place high demands on long-term reliability and availability. This combines multiple technologies, such as panel and box PCs, industrial gateway PCs, embedded computer boards, industrial monitors, HMI panels and industrial wired and wireless network components. AI technology is also discussed.
Bart Meesterburrie, IIoT Channel Manager – Benelux at Advantech, explains: “AIoT has the potential to create enormous benefits for many applications. But it is very clear that working with a single technology provider will limit the customer's ability to translate those benefits into commercial gain.”
“What they need is an ecosystem of suppliers. And that is exactly what we create and will continue to develop. We enable other parties to bring together their own specific knowledge with the technology to develop complete application-specific solutions.”
“The agreement with systems integrator HPS Industrial – a true expert and leader in systems integration – will give the company access to our technology. This way we can support their projects and let their customers fully enjoy the possibilities of AIoT.”
“We are pleased to expand our product portfolio with Advantech's innovative AI products,” says Erik Seijner from system integrator HPS Industrial. “We have been a reliable partner for industrial automation for almost 30 years. As demand for industrial AI systems increases in the market, we are honored to demonstrate our added value and participate in the AI ecosystem that Advantech built.”
“We believe this partnership with Advantech will strengthen our relationships and position in the industrial AI market. Collaboration is the key to growth,” concludes Erik Seijner.
