LinkIQ – Unify industrial data

2026-05-28

Beijer Electronics announces the release of LinkIQ, a smart, secure gateway software that simplifies industrial connectivity and unlocks the value of machine data.

Industrial environments are often challenged by fragmented PLC brands, protocols, and systems. This complexity slows down integration and limits the ability to turn data into actionable insights. LinkIQ removes these barriers by connecting machines across major PLC brands, standardizing data, and delivering it to SCADA, MES, ERP, and cloud platforms via OPC UA, MQTT, and REST.

By eliminating protocol complexity and enabling seamless OT–IT communication, LinkIQ provides real-time visibility and a strong foundation for analytics, predictive maintenance, and digital transformation. With support for structured data and PackML, it ensures consistent, meaningful data across machines and helps teams make faster, better decisions.

“Stop translating protocols. Start accelerating outcomes with real-time visibility, enterprise-grade security, and seamless OT–IT flow,” says Magnus Buhre, Director Solution Engineering.

LinkIQ brings multi-brand, multi-protocol connectivity into one platform without the need for additional gateways or custom middleware. It creates a unified data layer across the factory and connects the shop floor with enterprise systems.

Built for secure and scalable deployment, LinkIQ features SSL/TLS communication, a streamlined configuration interface, and container-based deployment for fast installation and easy scaling.

LinkIQ is available for download today with a 90-day free test run, helping manufacturers accelerate their digital transformation.
