PROXIA Process Data Module – Perfect Visualization

Process data capture –
Optimize processes

In the Industry 4.0 era, data plays an increasingly important role. But what types of data actually arise in a production environment and how can you make the most of them?

Production data acquisition and machine data collection are often about the basis for a real post-calculation and the possibility to evaluate a production plant in terms of its performance – keyword: overall equipment effectiveness (GAE/OEE). Plant downtime in the form of lower availability, piece time deviations in the form of reduced output and scrap in the form of a declining quality rate are influencing factors here.

In today’s modern production, not only machine and operating data but also process data offer a great deal of potential for process optimization. The PROXIA Process data module stores, evaluates and visualizes temperatures, pressures or speeds and thus offers a further building block for the Smart Factory.

PROXIA Process Data Module – Functions & Features

Safe & multifunctional

The PROXIA process data module securely stores all relevant process parameters. It does not matter whether the data is stored in a central location or in distributed databases. This data pool also makes it possible to look at large periods of time and thus identify trends, for example. The information obtained in this way is not only an important asset for production staff, but this database also provides additional assistance in maintenance when troubleshooting and optimizing production facilities. Furthermore, process data also provide an additional opportunity for quality assurance staff to determine the respective causes in the event of quality deviations occurring.

Online & mobile

In the context of Industry 4.0, the importance of data is repeatedly mentioned. The focus is on the subject matter being in the right place at the right time. If you now use the possibility of moving this information from the process level to a centrally accessible location, this opens up additional opportunities to increase value creation. With the PROXIA process data module, the relevant telemetry data, such as temperatures, pressures or speeds can be monitored online at any time. The key here is that monitoring can be carried out not only on permanently installed workstations or PCs, but also on all mobile devices.

Modern & clear

Many modern plants offer the possibility to provide process data for maintenance. However, virtually all vendors bring their own visualization solutions. This makes a clear and uniform presentation of telemetry data from different plants virtually impossible. The visualization level of the PROXIA process data module is able to graphically display any kind of process data such as pressures, flow rates or vibration patterns. For example, deviations from the target process can be quickly detected through the permanent visualization of the relevant process parameters. This makes it possible to readjust the process at runtime. This helps to improve the quality of the products and minimize the reject rate. This provides the maintenance engineer with a modern and clear interface to monitor all his plants on the basis of the telemetry data collected.

Anticipating & controlling

In maintenance, the process data inventory provides additional assistance in troubleshooting and in optimizing the production facilities. In case the measured values deviate from the specifications, push notification concepts such as SMS, mail, RSS or the automated generation of maintenance messages are available. In this way, unplanned downtimes can be minimized and planned downtimes can be shifted to less critical time windows. Furthermore, process data also provide an additional opportunity for quality assurance staff to determine the respective causes in the event of quality deviations occurring.

Visualize & analyze

An important source of information lies dormant deep in the control systems of plants and machines: process data - this is data that documents with which actual parameters a process was carried out. As a rule, this data is used by the plant controls to regulate the process. This information, such as temperatures, pressures or speeds, usually remains in the controls and is not used for other tasks. Tapping into this "data pot" opens up additional opportunities to increase value creation. For example, the permanent visualization of the relevant process parameters allows deviations from the target process to be detected quickly and is an additional aid in troubleshooting and optimizing the production facilities.
