Industrial Communication based on Modbus and Node-RED

Over the next few years, the Industrial Wireless Sensor Network (IWSN), which is a major part of the Industrial Object Internet (IIoT), will play a crucial role in transforming the industrial world by opening a new era of economic and competitive growth in the Industrial Revolution known as "Industry 4.0". IIoT is able to help organizations achieve better benefits in industrial manufacturing markets by increasing productivity, reducing costs and developing new services and products. In this paper we present a wireless industrial communication system based on Node-RED platform using Modbus protocol for smart factories.
