Upgrading Industrial Computers
The Solution: Plant SCADA 8.2
Industry
Our client is renowned as one of North America’s leading manufacturers of non-woven materials in technical textiles.
Needs
The company called on us to update its industrial computers and migrate to up-to-date SCADA software.
Solutions
Though this project was not as ambitious in scope as some of the more complex automation projects our team is adept at undertaking, our experts are committed to guiding our clients through every step of their project, regardless of its scale, so that everything goes according to plan.
We began by migrating the system from Citect SCADA 5.4.1 to Plant SCADA 8.2. We then modified the Profibus communication network between the software and the PLCs. Finally, we integrated the PLC and SCADA system components to the client’s network. Our team completed the job in just a few months!
