Wonderware Systems Integrator
SCADA Software Solutions
As a Wonderware System Integrator, CIM Software has considerable experience in Wonderware applications. These are a few of our projects:
- Flint Hills refinery: controls and alarming for all aspects of cracking crude
- 3M Springfield MO: photolithic circuit boards control of machine
- 3M Menomonie WI: ceramic chip cleaner control
- Guidant: multiple sterilizers control, reporting using excel add-in, access db interfacing Active Factory, InSQL queries, redundant tagservers, alarming
- Liberty Paper Inc: coater controls
Since the late 1980s, Wonderware’s easy to use and implement SCADA software solutions have been present in almost every industry including Oil & Gas, Water & Wastewater and Power Delivery. These solutions offer several unique features that can greatly benefit companies looking to implement a new SCADA solution or upgrade an existing system.
- Highly available, reliable and scalable SCADA applications
- Single click software redundancy
- Leverages ArchestrA architecture for easy configuration and management of operational and system security that is compatible with existing IT security capabilities
- Empowers users to design, build, deploy and maintain standardized SCADA applications
- Lowest total system lifecycle costs
Easy Configuration, Simplified Maintenance
Wonderware provides a flexible, maintainable and secure software platform for SCADA environments. These solutions are built on and integrated with a single, open and scalable software architecture that can connect to virtually any automation system, remote terminal unit (RTU), intelligent electronic device (IED), programmable logic controller (PLC), database, historian or business system in use today. The open nature of this platform enables users to expand their existing systems without having to buy new hardware or control systems.
Wonderware solutions enable distributed peer-to-peer communications. In addition, existing assets can be modeled within the software. This saves a tremendous amount of time when adding new wells, substations, devices or other monitoring stations – because the engineer can reuse the template that contains all of the information necessary for control, such as scripts, alarms and communication methods. That also greatly improves the reliability of the system because the software’s existing templates are field-proven.
Wonderware ArchestrA
Wonderware ArchestrA is an object oriented Tag Database. When linking objects on the HMI screen, you can use 1 tag for the loop template, the PV indicator, the Control Output, and any Alarm indicators. If the smart symbols are designed properly, they will use the right property of the tag. In the past, it would take 6-20 tags to accomplish this. Tags can also be grouped into areas, making it easy to drill down into a large plant system.
Production and Performance Management
The Production Events Module (PEM) for Industrial Application Server (IAS) is part of Wonderware's Production and Performance Management offering PEM enables you to record production events into a standard database, to know the exact process conditions at a certain step, report forward and backward genealogy of materials, equipment, and production events.
