Version 4.4 of Proficy Plant Applications, one of the cornerstones of the vendor’s Production Management Software suite, offers new features designed to decrease users’ time-to-value, making it easier for manufacturers to reach production, quality and cost objectives.
In addition to the product’s traditional reporting and analytical capabilities, the new release supports VMware virtualization, Citrix remote desktop architectures and Microsoft Server Clustering for improved reliability and system dependability. New model configuration tools extend the power of the software’s event detection and modeling sub-system. Those capabilities, coupled with improved deployment tools, make configuration of production systems faster and more repeatable, says the vendor. Enhanced runtime displays and reporting capabilities improve the software’s ability to get the right information to the right people. GE Fanuc Intelligent Platformswww.gefanuc.com800.433.2682
