Edge Computing Software

New value for production sites through data collection and utilization

Edgecross is Mitsubishi Electric's open edge computing software platform the foundation layer that connects factory automation (FA) equipment directly to IT systems, enabling production data collected at the shop floor level to be processed, analysed, and acted upon at the edge rather than routed through a central server or cloud. Software applications built on the Edgecross platform run on Mitsubishi Electric MELIPC industrial computers and compatible hardware, transforming raw machine data into actionable insight for predictive maintenance, quality monitoring, energy management, and production optimisation. The Edgecross software range includes applications spanning AI-powered data analysis, production data logging and visualisation, energy consumption diagnosis, digital twin simulation, and SCADA-level monitoring covering the full scope of data utilisation needs on a modern manufacturing site. Because all applications are built on the same Edgecross platform, they share a common data collection infrastructure and can be deployed individually or in combination to match the specific requirements of a production facility. DahebTech is an officially authorised Mitsubishi Electric dealer in the UAE, supplying the full Edgecross-compatible software range to industrial clients across manufacturing, processing, and infrastructure sectors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mitsubishi Edgecross Edge Computing Software UAE

Edgecross is an open edge computing software platform developed by Mitsubishi Electric that enables collaboration between factory automation ( FA ) equipment and IT systems. It runs on MELIPC industrial computers and compatible hardware, collecting production data from field devices including MELSEC controllers, servo systems, and inverters and making it available to software applications for processing, analysis, and visualisation at the edge. Because processing occurs at the edge rather than in the cloud, Edgecross delivers lower latency, higher data security, and real-time response capability that cloud-only architectures cannot achieve for time-critical manufacturing applications.
MELSOFT MaiLab is Mitsubishi Electric's AI-powered data analysis tool, compatible with the Edgecross platform. It enables engineers and production managers to build machine learning and AI-based diagnosis models for production data including quality defect detection, equipment anomaly identification, and process optimisation without any programming knowledge. The AutoML function automatically selects and configures the most appropriate analysis method based on the user's objective. MaiLab is available in both subscription ( OPEX ) and perpetual licence ( CAPEX ) models and integrates directly with Mitsubishi Electric FA equipment for streamlined data collection.
No. MELSOFT MaiLab is designed to make AI and machine learning accessible to engineers and production staff without data science or programming expertise. The AutoML function handles analysis method selection automatically. For users who require custom workflows, MaiLab also supports Python programming integration providing flexibility for both non-technical users and experienced data engineers working on the same platform.
Edgecross-compatible software applications primarily run on Mitsubishi Electric MELIPC industrial computers including the current MI3000 model which are purpose-built for edge computing on the factory floor. Some Edgecross applications are also compatible with general purpose industrial PCs running Windows. DahebTech supplies both MELIPC hardware and the full Edgecross software range contact our team for guidance on the right hardware and software combination for your application.
Yes. Because Edgecross is an open platform, its data collection capabilities extend beyond Mitsubishi Electric equipment. Data collectors compatible with Edgecross can interface with a range of third-party controllers and field devices, allowing manufacturers with mixed-brand automation environments to benefit from edge computing data analysis. The Edgecross platform's open architecture is specifically designed to support FA-IT integration across heterogeneous automation environments.
GX LogViewer collects and displays production and equipment data in real-time and historical trend formats it is primarily a data logging and visualisation tool. MELSOFT MaiLab goes further by applying AI and machine learning to the collected data, building diagnosis models that can detect anomalies, predict failures, and identify quality deviations automatically. For basic production data monitoring, GX LogViewer is the appropriate tool. For AI-based analysis and predictive maintenance, MELSOFT MaiLab is required. Both can be deployed together on the same Edgecross platform infrastructure.
