Wonderware EPM 2.0 allows users to correlate equipment performance metrics such as downtime or OEE with broader MES functions.
Wonderware UK has released Equipment Performance Module (EPM) 2.0 software, a significant update to its software solution for customers needing to track, analyse and improve equipment, line or plant downtime and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Wonderware EPM 2.0 is built on Factelligence technology from the Invensys Cimnet acquisition.
Wonderware EPM 2.0 combines Invensys' ArchestrA industrial service-oriented architecture technology with the latest InTouch 10.0 HMI and System Platform 3.0 software.
This combination provides the ability to correlate equipment performance metrics, such as downtime or OEE, with broader MES functions including formula management, process history, product traceability and genealogy and statistical process control.
In conjunction with Microsoft.NET technology, EPM 2.0 offers vivid graphical visualisation of equipment performance.
The integration with Wonderware System Platform 3.0 provides the combination of a flexible plant application model along with the richness of the Factelligence production model.
In addition, EPM 2.0 offers immediate access to accurate and personalised information for manufacturing and business users.
EPM 2.0 also provides expanded capabilities for localisation and internationalisation, bringing equipment performance software solutions to more customers and enabling them to more easily deploy consistent best practices for global manufacturing strategies.
"Within a few short months, Wonderware has been able to integrate Factelligence technology from the recent Cimnet acquisition, proven ArchestrA technology and the newest generation of InTouch 10.0 HMI visualisation software to create a superior performance management solution for our customers", said Claus Abildgren, Marketing Program Manager for Wonderware.
Wonderware is offering complete software solution bundles that include EPM 2.0, System Platform 3.0 and InTouch 10.0 HMI.
Current Wonderware Factelligence, DT Analyst and EPM 1.0 customers will continue to be supported on their current software releases and will be able to expand their solutions with future versions of both Factelligence and the Equipment Performance Module.
EPM 2.0 is an integral part of Wonderware's scalable and integrated approach to production and performance management that enables incremental system expansion and the consistent rollout of corporate standards and best practices for increased business performance.
