Smart Condition Monitoring Solution

Smart Condition Monitoring Solution

Automation, Industry 4.0
Mitsubishi Electric has gained further recognition for the innovative Smart Condition Monitoring (SCM) solution, winning the Continuous Improvement category at the 2017 Food Processing Awards. The SCM was developed to provide a simple, easy to implement solution for predictive maintenance, offering the tools businesses need to bring an end to costly, unscheduled downtime. The SCM is built around smart sensors, physically attached to the assets in question and transmitting feedback information to an advanced controller, incorporating a Mitsubishi Electric PLC. The individual sensors provide an in-built traffic light warning indication at the machine, while also transferring the data over Ethernet to the smart sensor controller for indepth monitoring and analysis. The crucial data analysis is performed on the PLC, so the system can be relied upon to transmit simple accurate overviews or warnings to operators in real-time prior to significant asset failure.

OPC UA companion specification

OPC UA companion specification

Automation, Industry 4.0
The CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA), in association with the OPC Foundation, announced an OPC UA companion specification for the CLPA’s new “CSP+ for Machine” technology, to further ease the implementation of Industry 4.0 type applications, at SPS IPC Drives 2017. CSP+ for Machine is an extension of the CLPA’s existing “CSP+” (Control & Communication System Profile) that provides easy network configuration and maintenance by offering profiles that describe each device on a CC-Link IE or CC-Link network. CSP+ technology has been established for some time and provides easy drag and drop network configuration from CSP+ files provided by CLPA partner vendors, allowing convenient device libraries to be created. This new announcement takes the technology one step further by allowing whole machines to be treated in the same way. Complex systems can now be dealt with as if they are a single device, reducing complexity significantly and greatly simplifying the task of obtaining vital process data.
