Concurrent Real-Time delivers that foundation. Our solutions are built on RedHawk Linux, a deterministic real-time operating system designed to handle the rigorous demands of automated production environments. Combined with our iHawk platforms and advanced simulation and data acquisition tools, we provide a full suite of real-time technologies that help engineers improve throughput, reduce downtime, and meet strict regulatory and quality standards. 

Concurrent’s real-time systems provide the performance, flexibility, and integration capabilities needed for modern manufacturing and industrial automation. Built to support real-time control, simulation, and data acquisition, our solutions allow engineers to rapidly iterate, validate, and scale production systems without compromising timing or accuracy. 

RedHawk Linux is the cornerstone of our real-time architecture, providing sub-5-microsecond response times on certified systems and deterministic behavior essential for industrial environments. With its advanced process scheduling, interrupt shielding, and multi-core optimization, RedHawk is ideal for: 

  • Machine control and motion coordination 
  • Industrial robotics and PLC systems 
  • Embedded control for production equipment 
  • Integration with sensors, actuators, and edge devices 

Concurrent’s iHawk platforms provide powerful, fully integrated systems tailored to manufacturing use cases. These platforms are configured with: 

  • Real-time drivers and I/O support 
  • Ruggedized and rack-mounted form factors 
  • Support for high-speed data acquisition and feedback loops 
  • Compatibility with SCADA, PLC, and MES systems 

SimWB provides an intuitive real-time modeling environment ideal for: 

  • Prototyping industrial processes before deployment 
  • HiL and XiL testing of controllers and automation logic 
  • Closed-loop simulation with real-time I/O 
  • SimWB supports C/C++ and model-based tools such as Simulink®, allowing seamless integration with engineering workflows. 

Concurrent’s real-time solutions are currently deployed in a wide range of industrial applications, including: 

  • Steel and aluminum production – Coordinating high-speed processing and material handling 
  • Medical robotics – Real-time control of motion, feedback, and surgical coordination 
  • Fuel distribution – Monitoring and control of flow systems and safety checks 
  • Power plant control – Deterministic coordination of turbines, pumps, and subsystems 

Our professional services team supports: 

  • Legacy system migration and re-hosting 
  • Custom I/O and hardware integration 
  • Test stand setup and real-time tuning 
  • Engineering consulting for deployment and optimization
