Module Type Package (MTP) as enabler for Open and Modular Process Automation at zenonIZE23
How does the modular process automation of the future look like?
See Plug & Produce at its best with zenon as POL and DCS+. Modular process automation offers manufacturers unparalleled flexibility and customization benefits over conventional production methods.
Modular process automation offers manufacturers unparalleled flexibility and customization benefits over conventional production methods. Modular Type Package [MTP] technology drives much of this success by enabling smooth integration of various modules within systems while reducing customization requirements. By standardizing communication between modules, MTP makes it easy to incorporate new or upgraded pieces of equipment without disturbing the overall operational flow. The result is increased scalability and flexibility, allowing quick adaptation to changing market needs from automated solutions incorporating MTP features.
The wait is finally over! Plug and Produce, an innovative concept that has been in demand for years, is here with zenon Process Orchestration Layer and Distributed Control System+. Both systems work together seamlessly to offer automation solutions that are vendor and platform independent, resilient, efficient, and cost-effective. zenon's process orchestration layer is responsible for communication among peripheral devices, while distributed control system+ manages multiple devices simultaneously.
This combination makes it easy to scale up or down as per business needs, enabling companies to adapt quickly to changing market scenarios. Together with Sebastian Böse (Beckhoff), Giuseppe Menin, Bernhard Korten and key COPA-DATA colleagues will showcase how industrial businesses, large or small, will find the MTP concept invaluable in the ever-evolving market landscape. In turn, this delivers greater operational efficiency across all aspects of manufacturing processes.
Originally, this session was presented at the zenonIZE23 event in Salzburg in June 2023.
