Itech’s seasoned crew of SCADA programmers understands that clearly presented information, intuitive system controls and clear navigation are the core of good SCADA/HMI programming, which ultimately drives operational efficiency and performance. Our clients appreciate that we can design to their standards and that we never try to force them into a box. However, if you don’t yet have standards, we have some great ones, and we think you’ll like what you see. Either way, we’ll do the heavy lifting, but we will involve you every step of the way so that you wind up with a system you love.
As the brains of your automation system, choosing the right SCADA system for your specific needs is paramount, as often times the ability to monitor and control systems and processes is just not feasible for humans, whether that limitation is due to location, cost or complexity.
Whether you’re implementing your first SCADA system, updating a current system, or simply looking for an integration partner with the expertise required to help you sort through all of the available options, we’re happy to explore the following considerations to help you select the optimal SCADA system for your business.
With HMI/SCADA systems advancing technologically and implementations becoming increasingly more complex, our engineering team works with you to design, install and monitor a comprehensive SCADA system. Proficient with a multitude of different SCADA / HMI software programs, we have consulted on, designed, implemented and supported hundreds of systems and are systems integrator/solution partners for the following platforms:
As a result of our platform proficiency, we have helped businesses operating in a broad field of industries gain significant savings of time and money, including those operating in:
Data driven decisions – that’s what can propel you past the competition. With a robust SCADA system monitoring and aggregating data, and controlling machines and processes that utilize valves, pumps and motors via HMI, you have access to a historical overview of your automated systems. And when reliability and performance are not negotiable, SCADA and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) deliver that and more:
SCADA's design is centered on multi-level redundancy to ensure constant communication and operation of your system. This will maximize your productivity and allow continuous production.
SCADA analyzes and controls the quality of manufactured products using standard SCADA functionality. This includes Statistical Process Control (SPC). Advanced statistical alarms allow your personnel to perform predictive calibration of process parameters, preventing out-of-limit deviations before they occur.
Deploying a centralized SCADA system will allow you to significantly reduce operating and maintenance costs. With fewer personnel required to monitor operations in remote locations, the result is increased operator effectiveness.
A SCADA system can be easily integrated with your existing business systems, leading to increased production and profitability. In addition, this system implementation allows you to transform, analyze, and present real-time information that can travel throughout your organization for prioritized decision making.
When you spend money to improve operations, you need to know that you are getting what you paid for and that your system will withstand the test of time. A well-designed and open SCADA system can protect against control system obsolescence and can be easily scaled to meet growing demands on your operations.
If you're considering a new SCADA system, or have an existing system that you would like evaluated, please give us a call to have a chat and we'll figure out the best way to make your life a little bit easier. .
