Duagon AG: Communication, Computing, and Control Technology for Modern Rail and Transport

Duagon AG is a leading provider of communication, computing, and control technology solutions for modern rail and transport systems. The company also offers medical-grade computers, smart factory and production control systems for industrial automation. With a focus on innovation and quality, Duagon has established itself as a trusted partner to customers around the world.

Founded in 1995 in Switzerland as MEN Mikro Elektronik GmbH, the company was acquired by Duagon Holding AG in 2017. Today, Duagon has offices in Europe (Switzerland, Germany), Asia (China), North America (USA), South America (Brazil) and Australia.

Duagon's product portfolio includes multifunction vehicle bus (MVB), real-time Ethernet, CAN and legacy bus interfaces; analog and digital I/Os; gateways; repeaters; switches; Computer-on-Modules (COM); Single Board Computers (SBC); embedded industrial computers; medical-grade computers with IP65 protection rating against dust/water ingress.

The MVB interface is used to connect various subsystems within trains such as brakes or doors. It provides high-speed data transfer between different devices while ensuring reliable communication even under harsh environmental conditions such as vibration or temperature fluctuations.

Real-time Ethernet is used to connect different devices within an industrial network. It enables fast data transfer with low latency which is essential for applications that require precise timing such as motion control or machine vision.

CAN bus interface is widely used in automotive applications but also finds its use in other industries where it provides reliable communication between different devices over long distances.

Legacy bus interfaces are still widely used especially in older train models where they provide compatibility with existing equipment while enabling new functionalities through integration with modern technologies like MVB or Ethernet.

Analog/digital I/O modules are used to acquire signals from sensors or actuators within an industrial environment. They provide high accuracy and resolution while ensuring reliable operation even under harsh environmental conditions.

Gateways are used to connect different networks with each other. They enable communication between devices that use different protocols or standards.

Repeater modules are used to extend the range of a network by amplifying signals over long distances.

Switches are used to connect multiple devices within a network. They provide high-speed data transfer with low latency which is essential for applications that require precise timing such as motion control or machine vision.

Computer-on-Modules (COM) and Single Board Computers (SBC) are compact computing solutions that can be integrated into various industrial applications. They provide high processing power while consuming low power which is essential for applications where energy efficiency is important.

Embedded industrial computers are designed for use in harsh environments such as factories or trains. They provide reliable operation even under extreme temperature, vibration, or shock conditions while ensuring high performance and low power consumption.

Duagon's medical-grade computers offer IP65 protection rating against dust/water ingress making them suitable for use in hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and other medical facilities where hygiene is critical. These computers also feature fanless design which ensures quiet operation without generating heat or noise pollution.

Duagon's smart factory and production control systems enable real-time monitoring of production processes while providing insights into key performance indicators (KPIs). This helps manufacturers optimize their operations by identifying bottlenecks, reducing waste, improving quality control, and increasing productivity.

In conclusion, Duagon AG offers a wide range of communication, computing and control technology solutions for modern rail and transport systems as well as industrial automation applications. With its focus on innovation and quality coupled with its global presence through offices in Europe (Switzerland/Germany), Asia (China), North America (USA), South America (Brazil) & Australia; Duagon has established itself as a trusted partner to customers around the world who rely on its products to ensure safe & efficient operation of their systems.
