A complete proposal for the management of the data chain

Milan, 11/05/2018 – ServiTecno, a company specializing in the supply of software and systems for industrial applications, is taking part in SPS Italia (stand H26, pavilion 3) with the products and solutions of its partners GE Digital, Inventia, Ocean Data Systems, Nozomi Networks, MDT and Stratus.

Measure to understand

The basis of any strategy aimed at correct asset management is knowledge of process data.

The MT telemetry modules proposed by Invent are easy to use and are the best choice for acquiring and transmitting process data regardless of the complexity and context of the application, whether it is water distribution, water treatment, environmental protection, gas, electricity and heating distribution, petrochemical installations , transportation, agriculture, building management, HVAC, surveillance and alarm systems, remote meter reading.

All the modules, from the simple sensor to the data acquisition system with on-board logic controller, exploit GSM/GPRS technology and are easy to configure and implement by integrators or by the users themselves thanks to intuitive software tools.

Supervision and reporting for the enterprise 4.0

In all sectors, especially in regulated ones such as food and pharmaceuticals, manufacturing companies that intend to increase their competitiveness on the markets must adopt a correct approach to data management based on two fundamental principles: traceability and data integrity .

On these topics ServiTecno e GE-Digital will propose innovative and consolidated solutions to SPS Italia, the result of a long experience in these areas: from complete and easy-to-use tools for supervising process data to solutions for historicizing process data, up to tools that allow generate static and dynamic reports, thus transforming data into a tool to support decision-making processes.

The new releases of iFix e Simplicity they represent a simple, configurable and complete tool that allows you to view data in relation to the context and to offer them to the operator on any device connected to the network, from PC to smartphone.

Instead of complex interfaces full of insignificant data, which recent studies have shown to be poorly suited to stimulate an operator's conscious reaction to critical events, the operator will have at his disposal, at any time and wherever he is, all and only the data relevant to the operations that require his intervention.

historian is the solution that allows you to record the life of the manufacturing process and "rewind the tape" whenever you want to perform comparative analyzes or simply zoom in on an event that happened at a given moment. It is therefore the basis of any process that you want to keep documented trace.

Lastly Dream Report, the solution proposed by Ocean Data Systems available both in a stand-alone version and as a plug-in integrated into all the main market Scadas, including iFix and Cimplicity: a tool that does not limit itself to generating reports with a single click, but which is able to dynamically update them to keep them "alive" and reduce the effort necessary to understand the dynamics of the processes.

Security, continuity and resilience

But in order to make a plant truly efficient there is another parameter to consider, in addition to the specific performance of the process: the Business Continuity.

There are two essential steps to increase the resilience and operational continuity of your company: the first is to adopt a Anomaly detection: a "sentinel" that silently listens to and understands the communications that take place on the production network, promptly signaling any traffic anomaly, the first indication of a possible unwanted intrusion into the company computer systems. ServiTecno distributes and supports the solutions developed by Nozomi Networks, one of the most technologically advanced companies in the world on these issues.

If prevention fails, however, it is essential to also have a plan B, i.e. be ready to get back on track as soon as possible, limiting the economic losses deriving from prolonged machine downtime.

For this ServiTecno proposes everRun, the solution of Stratus for high availability (fault tolerance) which includes integrated Disaster Recovery functions to offer complete IT protection of critical infrastructures capable of guaranteeing business continuity everywhere.

It is a tool that exploits the most advanced virtualization technologies to always have an active "backup copy" of critical systems, ready to go into operation in a fraction of a second should there be problems with the running systems.

Another pillar at the service of business continuity are the Version Control and Change Management solutions of MDT: these are tools that keep track of all the software installed on the machines and all their versions, including controller firmware updates. In this way, if a hardware component is compromised, it will be possible to restore (or replace) it by simply and quickly recovering the latest correct version of the software.

A very useful solution that can also work with legacy software.
