    Open-source solutions for real-time data retrieval in industrial automation and IoT environments
    (Inderscience Publishers, 2025) Hegde, S.B.; Narendra Reddy, T.N.; Prasannan, P.; Manjunath, K.V.; Herbert, M.A.; Rao, S.S.
    Digitalisation of the manufacturing industries due to the implementation of the ‘industrial internet of things (IIOT)’ is a key enabler for improved productivity and reliability at a reduced labour cost. The industrial IOT connects all the industrial machines such as PLCs, CNCs, and robots through a robust network. The generated data by these end devices plays a vital role in industrial automation, however acquiring the data from machines specifically legacy machines using various communication protocols is the biggest challenge and costly process, especially for MSMEs. Hence this paper discusses the usage of the open-source framework for real-time data acquisition from industrial machines and its implication in Industry 4.0. The paper implements and validates the possibility of the usage of an open-source framework for data acquisition instead of vendor-specific licensed software using several test cases. The paper also validates and proves ‘Wireshark’ can be a universal open-source solution for data acquisition using any standard communication protocols from various vendor-specific machines. Hence this work provides a novel solution for the digitalisation of the MSME manufacturing industries efficiently at the reduced maintenance cost and improve their productivity. © © 2025 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
