Situation
Customers Challenge
Solution
The Siemens solution included an S7-1200 controller with
thermocouple modules to read furnace temperatures and
display on a TP-700 HMI. In addition an IOT2040 gateway
reads data via the S7 protocol and sends data to MindSphere,
with the SITRANS store IQ monitoring App connected to the
customers Ethernet plant network.
The hardware was configured, tested and shipped to the
customer site. From there onboarding of the IoT was done
via virtual meet with the support of the US PA DEL team.
Benefits
This in turn facilitates the operators to maintain the high
production rates and maintain consistent dimensional accuracy of the casting process without sacrificing production
time. The customer is happy with the solution and has been
operating 24/7 with no issues. Alarms have been created
and notifications assigned to staff.
As a result of the benefits seen, the customer has approached
EIS requesting expansion of the SITRANS store IQ system
into the casting mold creation process.
Customer
“Having the temperature reading in front of us gives a great
benefit in our ability to quickly react to process variations.
We can easily notify our staff to resolve issues quickly and
keep the operation running smoothly.”
