Hardware and software on show together
Pantek will be exhibiting Wonderware's InTouch and the Advantech range of industrial computer hardware on stand Q38 at this week's Southern Manufacturing 2004 exhibition.
John Bailey, Pantek's Managing Director said of the show: "We will be exhibiting a range of solutions, but will be majoring on Wonderware's Industrial Application Server and the Preactor range of advanced planning and scheduling systems".
Elaborating more about Preactor and Pantek's added value Aidan Finnegan, Pantek's Account Manager for Ireland said: "By integrating Preactor with an execution system using Nexus, Pantek's own in-house developed real-time interface that connects Wonderware's InTouch visualisation software to Preactor's advanced planning and scheduling system, companies can now create a dynamic planning environment that gives planners the ability to publish schedules directly to the shop floor whilst maintaining complete visibility of current performance against the schedule".
"On our stand we'll also be demonstrating our in-depth technical knowledge and application experience, underlining how, in partnership with us, our wide range of customers have implemented automation and control projects with confidence and great success".
Commenting further Bailey said: "We are able to provide manufacturing industry professionals in all market and industry sectors including of course the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, with an understanding of how collaborative manufacturing is developing, and most importantly, how it is already impacting the way they work".
"Furthermore, we'll indicate how we provide the support required to confidently take up the opportunities that this understanding presents".
"Visitors to the exhibition need to learn how to get real competitive advantage from their manufacturing investment, and by talking to Pantek they'll get just that".
