Simulations Drive Value across Automation Lifecycle
Do you view simulation of your automation system as being complex? In a Control Engineering Europe article, Simulation needs to overcome perceived complexity and trust issues (pp. 12-13), Emerson's Ronnie Bains and other industry experts share how advancing technology...
Creating Business Value with Augmented and Virtual Reality Technologies
At the time of the writing of this post, Wikipedia defined augmented reality as: …an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that reside in the real-world are enhanced by computer-generated perceptual information, sometimes across multiple...
Driving Business Performance through Digital Transformation
We see it in our daily lives as companies undertake digital transformation initiatives, either for competitive advantage or survival. Many industries, including music, film, transportation, and lodging are all going through this. Even within our world of...
Digital Twin Technology for Projects and Ongoing Operations
Simulation technology continues to advance to improve manufacturing performance in both the capital project and ongoing operations phases. We've highlighted examples of how these performance gains are achieved in earlier posts with Emerson's Ronnie Bains. Today at...
Dynamic Simulations for Projects, Training and Ongoing Operations
Learning in a simulated environment can improve both the capital project side and ongoing operations side of a manufacturing process. In an Arab News article, Faster start-up, Emerson's Ronnie Bains: …explains how the use of dynamic simulations and operator training...
Digital Twin for Increased Project and Operational Performance
You may have been seeing the phrase "Digital Twin" more and more in the automation and industry press. Wikipedia defines the Digital twin concept as: …a digital replica of physical assets, processes and systems that can be used for various purposes.[1] The digital...
3D Immersive Dynamic Simulations
You may have seen the recent announcement that Google Glass is back as Google Glass Enterprise Edition (EE) designed for workplace environments like ours in the manufacturing space. This technology joins others well established technologies such as Daqri and Gilgamesh...
Improving Project Performance with Dynamic Simulations and Operator Training Systems
Dynamic process simulations can be used across the lifecycle of a capital project from early verification studies of process designs to training the operators to prepare to operate the running facility. For offshore oil & gas production facilities these...
Innovations in Increasing Project Successes
Emerson's innovations in process control magazine provides insights into many of the latest technology and service innovations occurring. The latest edition opens with an operating training simulator (OTS) successful implementation at Iberian Lube Base Oils Company...
Developing High-Level Operator Skills Prior to Startup
For those that follow the various forms of auto racing, you know that the skills of the drivers typically separate overall race results, even when the racecars are nearly identical in performance. And so it is with experienced, high-level operators in process...
Develop, Test and Train for Lower Risk Projects
One way to improve the probability for a successful process automation project is to include dynamic simulation during the design phases to help with configuring the control system, testing before commissioning the system and training the operators before the process...
