Software Provides Unified View of Disparate Manufacturing Data

Aug. 18, 2010
 

FactoryTalk® VantagePoint from Rockwell Automation incorporates the real-time data from a range of plant systems to provide the analytical context that turns data into manufacturing intelligence. With its Unified Production Model (UPM), VantagePoint is able to produce Web-based reports, trends and dashboards that can be used to manage cost, quality and resources more effectively.

Benefits include:
• Improve production agility by monitoring production variables and asset availability;
• Reduce cost by minimizing scrap and waste, conserving energy thus lowering cost-per-unit;
• Defer capital spending by improving asset utilization and maintenance;
• Decrease overhead costs by saving time in collecting data and preparing reports.
