The customer lacks a general overview of the production process, so he asked to install a central SCADA system.

Solution

Some main features:
Use a central SCADA system (iFIX)
Star topology collects data directly from all other SCADA systems and controllers (PLC, PAC)
Redundancy by data collection from KepServerEx OPC UA server software

All data tags are stored in the central history database

Conclusion

The new central SCADA system provides a convenient and clear overview of all production processes on a common platform.
All data can be found in a public database, allowing for simple analysis and auditing.
