【Common Issues】 Aging DCS leads to discontinued parts supply and increased maintenance costs, making system modifications reliant on manufacturers, which results in high costs and long downtimes. 【Solution Approach】 With our SCADA software and PLC renewal plan based on field expertise, system replacement can be completed with a short scheduled downtime, including modifications to existing panels and wiring conversions. The adoption of open technology allows for future expansions without restrictions. 【Post-Implementation Effects】 The need for DCS maintenance contracts is eliminated, significantly reducing lifecycle costs. Changes to screens and additional controls can be flexibly managed in-house, freeing you from vendor lock-in. Being based on general-purpose technology also ensures quick responses to troubleshooting.

In batch control of chemical plants, a flexible and highly reliable control system is required to ensure stable operation and maintain quality. In particular, aging DCS systems face inevitable challenges such as the end of parts supply, increased maintenance costs, and high expenses and long downtimes due to manufacturer dependency in system modifications. To address these challenges and optimize our customers' plant operations, we propose a renewal plan that combines our SCADA software with PLC. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Updating aging DCS systems - Breaking free from manufacturer dependency - Reducing maintenance costs - Shortening system downtime - Flexible changes in batch control processes 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Elimination of DCS maintenance contract fees, significantly reducing lifecycle costs - Ability to flexibly handle screen changes and control additions in-house - Liberation from vendor lock-in - Rapid troubleshooting with general-purpose technology

In the pharmaceutical industry, accurate recording and management of manufacturing processes are essential for product quality assurance and regulatory compliance. In particular, the reliability of manufacturing records is directly linked to the safety and efficacy of pharmaceuticals, necessitating high levels of precision and traceability. Aging DCS systems can pose challenges in meeting these demands due to issues such as the end of parts supply, rising maintenance costs, and expensive, prolonged downtime caused by manufacturer dependency during system upgrades. Our SCADA software + PLC renewal plan will complete the system replacement, including modifications to existing panels and wiring conversions, based on on-site expertise. By adopting open technologies, we also ensure future scalability, supporting improvements in the reliability of manufacturing records and operational efficiency in the pharmaceutical industry. 【Use Cases】 - Upgrading from DCS to PLC+SCADA in manufacturing lines - Renewal of aging control systems - Breaking free from manufacturer dependency - Manufacturing environments including explosion-proof areas 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Significant reduction in lifecycle costs through decreased DCS maintenance contract fees - Flexible in-house response to screen changes and control additions - Liberation from vendor lock-in - Rapid troubleshooting with general-purpose technologies

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, reliable control systems are essential for ensuring production stability and maintaining quality. Particularly as manufacturing processes become more complex and refined, the flexible scalability of systems and rapid troubleshooting are crucial for minimizing production losses. Aging DCS systems often face challenges such as the discontinuation of parts supply, increased maintenance costs, and dependence on manufacturers for system modifications, which can lead to decreased production efficiency and higher costs. Our SCADA software + PLC renewal plan offers solutions to these challenges through an approach based on on-site insights. It enables system replacement, including modifications to existing panels and wiring conversions, while ensuring future scalability through the adoption of open technologies. 【Use Cases】 - Updating aging DCS systems - Reducing maintenance costs and freeing from vendor lock-in - Enhancing flexibility in system modifications - Updating systems in plants, including hazardous areas 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Significant reduction in lifecycle costs due to decreased DCS maintenance contract fees - Flexible in-house responses to screen changes and control additions - Rapid troubleshooting through general-purpose technologies

【Common Issues】 Aging DCS systems face difficulties in maintenance due to the end of parts supply and rising maintenance costs, and because they are proprietary systems, modifications and feature additions rely heavily on the manufacturer, leading to a lack of flexibility. Additionally, system updates that include operation panels (HMI) in explosion-proof areas require coordination among multiple vendors, raising concerns about the dispersion of construction responsibility and design inconsistencies. There are many cases where companies hesitate to proceed with updates due to cost and the challenges of addressing hazardous locations. 【Solution Approach】 Our company offers a solution that replaces DCS with general-purpose PLCs and SCADA, achieving both cost reduction and flexible operations. We meticulously plan engineering that includes modifications to existing panels and I/O conversions to ensure that system replacements are completed within the downtime period. Furthermore, by adopting open technologies, customers can perform small-scale modifications and adjustments themselves after implementation, freeing them from vendor lock-in. Additionally, by simultaneously updating explosion-proof PCs and touch panels from our own product lineup, we can comprehensively refresh the entire system, including hazardous areas.

In chemical plants, particularly for system updates that include operation panels (HMI) in explosion-proof areas, coordination among multiple vendors is necessary, raising concerns about the dispersion of construction responsibilities and design inconsistencies. The situation of wanting to update but hesitating due to costs and the need to address hazardous locations may hinder the efficient operation of the plant and the introduction of the latest technologies. Our company provides solutions that balance cost reduction and flexible operations to address such challenges. We plan system replacements through engineering that includes modifications to existing panels and I/O conversions. Furthermore, by simultaneously updating explosion-proof equipment such as explosion-proof PCs and touch panels using our own product lineup, we can comprehensively renew the entire system, including hazardous areas. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Updating aging DCS systems - Simultaneous updates of HMIs including explosion-proof areas - Breaking free from manufacturer dependency and improving operational flexibility - Reducing risks associated with system updates 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduction in system update costs - Liberation from vendor lock-in - Comprehensive renewal of the entire system, including hazardous locations - Enhanced flexibility for customers in operation and maintenance
