Joint solutions
FactoryTalk® Historian Site Edition, powered by AVEVA™ PI System™
FactoryTalk® Historian Site Edition, powered by AVEVA PI System, automatically discovers all controllers and HMI devices in the plant and their associated data points. This allows users to review and approve data, which can then be configured by FactoryTalk Historian SE in a matter of hours. FactoryTalk Historian builds off industry-leading technology licensed from OSIsoft (now part of AVEVA) and leverages the FactoryTalk Services Platform for premier integration with the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture.
FactoryTalk® Historian Machine Edition, powered by AVEVA™ PI System™
FactoryTalk® Historian Machine Edition, powered by AVEVA PI system, provides high-speed, reliable data capture, enabling manufacturers to reach continuous process improvement goals. It achieves its superior reliability through a solid-state design hardened for on-machine use and with no moving parts. A limited software footprint requires no server or personal computer, significantly reducing the risk of data loss due to network or other system interruption and making the unit ideal for remote or hard to service locations. Plug and play access to real-time process and production data. It's modular and able to either stand alone or roll up into a plant-wide historian like FactoryTalk® Historian SE or AVEVA™ PI System™.
Rockwell PharmaSuite® Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
Rockwell PharmaSuite® Manufacturing Execution System (MES) offers role-based optimization for each stage of the recipe lifecycle for batch and discrete processing. The AVEVA PI System interface for Rockwell PharmaSuite® Batch scans events and PharmaSuite data sources, and then populates the AVEVA PI System’s asset framework (AF) database with event frames and elements. Through iterative scans, the interface updates AVEVA PI System points based on the data received.
