Process Screen Designer

Operation Manager - dashboardOperation Manager

Plant Integrate iT

The new Operation Manager is the central user interface for

operators and is available not only for the standard Plant iT pro-

cess control system but also for all add-ons and modules. The

revamped user interface complies with the latest usability stand-

ards and facilitates operation, monitoring and control of produc-

tion processes. The presentation of process areas and MES

functions, editable menus and numerous new processing func-

tions enables intuitive and effective utilisation of the control

system.

Plant Integrate iT extends the MES functionality of the standard

process control system. It is a MES report system which is seper-

ate to the productive server and compiles the historic data of a

Plant iT server and various third-party systems in an Operational

Data Store (ODS). It can be used as a central MES reporting sys-

tem and enables the presentation of analyses and production

reports, e.g. via web browser. Furthermore, Plant Integrate iT can

be extended with a workflow management system for production-

relevant business processes. This database-aided system is usu-

ally used for managing and monitoring manual processes in the

production environment.

It has never been easier to create complex process images using

Plant iT. The new Process Screen Designer is an integral part of

the Plant iT process control system and offers extensive libraries

of industry-specific graphic objects which can simply be added

via drag & drop. Prototypes already have pre-settings (e.g.

graphic object, unit) and only have to be linked to one automa-

tion object after being added to the process picture. Automation

objects on the other hand already boast all the required settings,

e.g. PLC source link. The new vector-based graphical elements

are fully scalable and provide optimum display quality for high

resolution process pictures.

All elements of the new interactive main menu bar and from

the slide-out side menu can be added to the dashboard via drag

& drop. A dashboard can be created and saved individually for

each user. The new function for displaying process pictures on

several monitors is particularly convenient. Process pictures can

now be moved from the Operation Manager to other monitors.

The new user interface of the Operation Manager has been opti-

mised for use with multi-touch screens. This ensures simpler

operation of the latest touch panels with multi-finger operation.

modular system architecture. The modular

system components can map all the process

steps and offer a seamless and integrated

automation solution. The Plant iT basic sys-

tems as well as all the modules and add-ons

have a central engineering infrastructure

with a common database and logical user

interface for intuitive parameterisation. All

the Plant iT modules and add-ons can also

be retrofitted.

Plant Acquis iT –

production data management

Plant Acquis iT records, processes and

archives process, production, operating and

machine data for plant-wide information

management, and pays particular attention

to the heterogeneity and complexity of sub-

The process control system Plant iT comes

with various features and is mainly used in

the following industries:

• Beverage industry (general)

• Brewing industry (Plant iT for the brewing industry is marketed worldwide under the brewmaxx brand)

• Food industry (general)

• Baking industry

• Dairy industry

• Pharmaceutical & Biopharmaceutical industry

• Chemicals industry

transferring technological parameters from a

higher-order procedure or linking parame-

ters directly to equipment ensures the great-

est possible flexibility and functional reliabil-

ity. The optional equipment modules are

context-specific applications and available

as an add-on of the Plant iT process control

system.

Plant Integrate iT – MES functions

Plant Integrate iT allows the “visualisation” of

all production processes. A key prerequisite

for achieving this objective is integrated

information management at MES level,

which can be integrated and operated

infinitely across process sequences and

departments. Plant Integrate iT can be used

to merge and evaluate the required data

from individual production areas. Numerous

properties, e.g. configurable reports for web

browsers and mobile end devices, provide

maximum flexibility and protection when

implementing a company-wide MES report-

ing system.

Plant iT material – process-related

materials management

The Plant iT material module can be used as

a central application for the effective man-

agement of order- and recipe-controlled

production processes. It offers process-

related materials management with a trans-

action-accurate online view of all material

movements. They are recorded on the basis

of a process-compliant warehouse structure

and besides precise inventory management

they also enable investigation and evalua-

tions, in particularly batch traceability.

Plant iT connect – the interface

manager

The Plant iT connect module offers an inter-

face with fully configurable parameters for

universal data exchange – especially with

external systems. Various standard com-

munication channels (e.g. XML/B2MML) are

available for linking ERP, laboratory or main-

tenance systems.

Plant Liqu iT – recipe management for

hybrid processes

Plant Liqu iT is particularly suitable for

controlling liquid handling processes. The

functionalities of Plant Direct iT as well as

Plant Acquis iT are seamlessly integrated

into Plant Liqu iT, thus offering users the

perfect combination of operating conveni-

ence, safety and transparency. Sequence-

based process control with configurable

parameters, technology-related recipe con-

trol, special technological classes and auto-

matic route control are the key functions of

Plant Liqu iT.

Plant Batch iT – recipe management for

batch processes

Plant Batch iT is the central tool for control-

ling and monitoring recipe-controlled batch

processes. The process control system

Plant Direct iT, including the production data

management Plant Acquis iT, and the

process-related materials management

Plant iT material are seamlessly integrated

into Plant Batch iT, thus offering users the

perfect combination of operating conveni-

ence, safety and transparency. Plant Batch iT

offers order management and processing

including detailed multi-layer views of cur-

rent orders and direct access to sequences

relating to the individual automation project

as well as a fully integrated process control

with detailed order- and batch-related event

logging. Recipe management with version

management takes place in Plant Batch iT

according to freely selectable models. Man-

agement of material parameters and ware-

house structures, inventory management

and batch tracing via Plant iT material is also

a component of Plant Batch iT.

Add-on: Plant Direct iT Visu-Recorder

Plant Direct iT Visu-Recorder is a special

feature of Plant iT. The add-on records

process sequences and outputs them via

the standard user interface of the control

system. The output function is started

directly via the process control panel –

similar to a media player. The time window

and output speed are freely selectable. The

Plant Direct iT Visu-Recorder effectively sup-

ports process optimisation. It is used, e.g.

for error diagnosis, process sequence analy-

ses, staff training, as well as audits and qual-

ification measures.

Add-on: Plant Acquis iT Messenger

Plant Acquis iT Messenger sends messages

directly from the control system to defined

persons. The optional remote messaging

system supports various communication

channels, such as e-mail and text messages.

integrate rule-based routing orders with a

dynamic route search and allocation into

order processing. The add-on extends the

capabilities of the standard route control of

the basic system. For example, it automati-

cally finds a suitable target tank, starts the

order and controls the sequence chain with

the corresponding recipe.

Add-on: Plant Direct iT Equipment

Modules

Plant Direct iT Equipment Modules encapsu-

late the technical functions of various facili-

ties. They independently control complex

sequences (semi-automatic). The option of

1. Parameterisable PCS

The declared aim of Plant iT development is

to facilitate the implementation of all tech-

nical and technological functions without

individual programming. “Parameterisation

instead of programming” is the key to

efficient engineering. Due to the unique

Plant iT class concept, just one software

module with fully configurable parameters

always controls and monitors all similar

objects in the plant. Adjustments can be

performed safely and efficiently even during

the production process.

2. Integrated automation

Plant iT is a continuous, PLC-based automa-

tion solution and the basic systems already

include a standard process control sys-

tem with an integrated recipe management

system for hybrid and batch processes

including MES functionality on a single

server with a standardised user interface.

3. Industry expertise

Plant iT is the product of over 25 years’

experience and expertise in the manage-

ment of production processes. Born from

the desire to develop a process control sys-

tem, which meets the most modern of

tions enables intuitive and effective utilisation of the control

system.

Plant Integrate iT extends the MES functionality of the standard

process control system. It is a MES report system which is seper-

ate to the productive server and compiles the historic data of a

Plant iT server and various third-party systems in an Operational

Data Store (ODS). It can be used as a central MES reporting sys-

tem and enables the presentation of analyses and production

reports, e.g. via web browser. Furthermore, Plant Integrate iT can

be extended with a workflow management system for production-

relevant business processes. This database-aided system is usu-

ally used for managing and monitoring manual processes in the

production environment.

It has never been easier to create complex process images using

Plant iT. The new Process Screen Designer is an integral part of

the Plant iT process control system and offers extensive libraries

of industry-specific graphic objects which can simply be added

via drag & drop. Prototypes already have pre-settings (e.g.

graphic object, unit) and only have to be linked to one automa-

tion object after being added to the process picture. Automation

objects on the other hand already boast all the required settings,

e.g. PLC source link. The new vector-based graphical elements

are fully scalable and provide optimum display quality for high

resolution process pictures.

All elements of the new interactive main menu bar and from

the slide-out side menu can be added to the dashboard via drag

& drop. A dashboard can be created and saved individually for

each user. The new function for displaying process pictures on

several monitors is particularly convenient. Process pictures can

now be moved from the Operation Manager to other monitors.

The new user interface of the Operation Manager has been opti-

mised for use with multi-touch screens. This ensures simpler

operation of the latest touch panels with multi-finger operation.

The new Operation Manager is the central user interface for

operators and is available not only for the standard Plant iT pro-

cess control system but also for all add-ons and modules. The

revamped user interface complies with the latest usability stand-

ards and facilitates operation, monitoring and control of produc-

tion processes. The presentation of process areas and MES

functions, editable menus and numerous new processing func-

tions enables intuitive and effective utilisation of the control
