Upgrading of HMI system and ACS Level 2 of furnace by EBNER.
The engineers of our company in collaboration with LLC Promcifra have completed works on upgrading the equipment and software. The old system was implemented based on InTouch (Wonderware) system. The computer and server hardware became obsolete and could not be updated. The installed software was not supported by the manufacturer.
The project is implemented with the use of the client-server architecture (a server and two clients). The system is deployed using virtual machines and is based on the Russian software in full — «Cascade — Cifra» (developer – Cibcom-Cifra). Besides, a new system is integrated with a real-time process data acquisition system Iba PDA. The process of changing over from an old system to a new one was implemented without maintenance shutdown with the current production running.
