植物连通性：下一个工业革命

Production facilities across the globe are turning to technology to ensure that they are always functioning at top-level performance, using specialized equipment to digitally track processes and eliminate human error.

Plant connectivity is a phrase that describes the network that connects the industrial production environment to the corporate IT side. Plant connectivity lets an entire corporate network monitor vital production data, leading to informed decision-making throughout the enterprise. Making Ethernet/IP the standard communication protocol on a plant floor allows a company to create an interconnected web of understanding and data collection. With this in place, pieces of equipment are able to communicate with each other, giving the operators and corporate management information needed to make critical decisions.

由于植物正在获得硬件，因此植物允许企业更加流行，因此允许公司更加流行，使公司能够更好地控制植物和升级新的和更好的编程逻辑。过去，一个干净的（CIP）系统那with no plant communication, could be run as soon as an operator pushed the “Start” button. The wash ran, regardless if incorrect valves or lines were open or if the process line was still running production, significantly increasing the risk for product contamination, equipment damage, or injury to personnel. In contrast, a modern integrated solution asks permission to run from a plant programmable logic controller (PLC) and is only allowed to run when production is complete and appropriate routing valves have moved to their correct positions, thereby preventing an operator from carelessly running cleaning fluid down the wrong lines or into the sellable product.

Monitoring a production line suffering from disappointing output or production flow inconsistencies is a great example of plant connectivity. By upgrading the control system to analyze data while the line is running, an operator can determine the root cause as to why one line is running at a higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), while the other line is starved for product. The data monitoring can shed light on how a line might be hindered by processes not visible to the human eye.

手动监控数据的操作员没有能力跟踪水，电用法和产品浪费等资源。雷竞技好吗它们也无法自动调节设定点，例如温度，化学浓度和电导率。然而，自动数据跟踪允许操作员准确监控资源并设定点以了解植物功能的全面了解。雷竞技好吗此信息几乎瞬间接收到全球链接多个生产设施，允许高管比较植物生产力，并进行明智的更改，以实时最大化每个工厂的输出。

植物目前正在不断变得更加智能，允许用户访问数据，利用保护，并实时做出明智的决策。要保持领先于曲线，许多公司正在投资于技术的未来。采用自动化设备等小步骤，实现数据跟踪，实现工业通信系统，使公司能够最大限度地减少错误，利用效率，使得这种知识的决策只有准确的数据跟踪使您能够执行。雷电竞植物连通性是现代加工行业的自然进展，并且在此速度下，只会变得更加重要。
