FlexxCore is the unique software technology infrastructure that enables the Flexxbotics platform to translate industrial data across multiple protocols and map device-specific function calls to create many-to-many interoperability, normalize data, add context, and support controlled read/write actions to different factory equipment and systems.
Most Industrial Equipment Was Never Designed for Compatibility
Most industrial equipment, machines, inspection systems, robots, cameras, sensors, and automation systems were never designed for compatibility.
FlexxCore technology runs inside the Flexxbotics platform to provide a framework with data pipelines, protocols, class structures, method sets, and data models for interoperability.
One Core Technology Across the Platform

Frequently Asked Questions
What is FlexxCore, and how does it enable interoperability across manufacturing equipment?
FlexxCore is the proprietary core technology in the Flexxbotics Platform that translates protocol-level data, maps vendor-specific command methods, and normalizes and contextualizes production data for AI. It enables many-to-many interoperability and controlled read/write actions across industrial equipment and systems using a common framework for data pipelines, protocols, and device interactions.
What does many-to-many interoperability mean in a plant environment?
Many-to-many interoperability enables different machines, controllers, robots, and automation systems to communicate through a common software framework rather than separate point-to-point integrations. Flexxbotics Transformers operate in the same secure runtime and inherit compatibility across all connected endpoints, allowing new equipment connections to work with existing devices and workflows.
Which industrial protocols and equipment manufacturers does Flexxbotics support?
Flexxbotics supports OPC UA, MQTT, MTConnect, Modbus TCP, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, and other industrial interfaces. Its Device Drivers connect more than 1,000 makes and models of equipment, including controllers and devices from Siemens, Rockwell, Mitsubishi, Beckhoff, HEIDENHAIN, Haas, FANUC, Universal Robots, Cognex, Keyence, Hexagon, and others.
Does Flexxbotics replace PLCs or machine controllers?
No. Flexxbotics does not replace deterministic control in PLCs, machine controllers, or OEM device software. Its Edge Software and Device Drivers work with existing factory controls to securely collect protocol-level data, coordinate workflows, and support controlled read/write operations. The Edge Software uses the predefined operating rules and authorized actions to coordinate autonomy across connected equipment.
FlexxCore is the unique, proprietary core technology in the Flexxbotics Platform that translates protocol-level data, maps vendor-specific command methods, normalizes and contextualizes production data for AI, and supports controlled read/write actions across industrial equipment and systems.
