SCADA

Unlock the full potential of your equipment with SCADA

SCADA by NUTEC Bickley

SCADA is a computer-based system that monitors equipment performance in real time and which can control and change settings by communicating with the equipment’s control system. It is configured to store all data for years; this information can be analyzed to replicate the optimum operating conditions of the equipment.

Once installed, operators are able to have complete control of their firing process, enhancing efficiency and productivity. Our latest Industry 4.0 platform integrates the latest technology to not only monitor the process, but also to keep the equipment operating at peak performance with smart maintenance technology. All the data generated during the firing process is stored in NUTEC Bickley’s own SCADA system.

This is then used to generate reports, graphs and intelligence data, to help customers in their decision making process.

Why choose SCADA?

Process traceability

A SCADA system is able to store all settings and configurations in a specific point in time, enabling furnace and kiln optimum performance to be replicated in future firings of the same product.

Performance data storage

SCADA stores all furnace/kiln performance data so you can pinpoint the appropriate settings to achieve optimal product quality. This includes timely correction or prevention of faults that may adversely affect production quality, by identifying the cause of problems with oxygen levels, temperature, and load uniformity.

Smart maintenance regime

Use predictive maintenance instead of corrective maintenance. SCADA allows you to predict when your equipment needs maintenance beforehand, reducing production downtime.

Real-Time graphics and data trends

Many factories still keep a manual record of temperature, oxygen levels, and pressure levels. SCADA immediately react to process fluctuations so you can spend your time in more valuable tasks.

Optimal operation

With SCADA it’s easier to change graphics and customize screens, its interface is much friendlier than a regular HMI and it can easily be connected to ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems for better process traceability.
