Upgrade Field Level Connectivity with State-of-the-Art Applications
with Automation.com and Softing
As digitalization moves into the process industry, companies face the challenge of balancing innovation and continuity. In many process plants control systems of different manufacturers and different generations are in operation due to long running times. Different communication interfaces make it difficult to exchange production and plant data across systems. The aim is to network sensors, devices, control systems and production plants horizontally and vertically throughout, thus creating the prerequisite for the use of asset management systems and industry 4.0 applications.
In the webinar we discuss:
- The special challenges for digitalization in the process industry
- Use cases for process automation gateways
- How to integrate fieldbus networks into modern day DCS (Distributed Control Systems) with Softing's smartGates
