Unlimited History & Expandable SCADA
Sinton’s Dairy had several localized SCADA/HMIs that could not connect or share information with different parts of the plant. Operators were constantly having to jump from system to system in order to monitor and control the piece of the plant that they were operating. This brought about problems with tracking down and solving process issues because none of the historical data in these systems could be shared or used outside of the localized HMI. In order to improve usability and expedite problem solving, Sinton expressed the need for a centralized SCADA/HMI system.

Fine-Grained Precision
This project is for the automation of the grain handling at a facility in Nebraska. There is no traditional HMI with this project. The Ignition application handles the device level control of every motor at the facility. This particular application was on a single server running a MySQL database. There were four clients, one PLC connection to an Allen Bradley ControlLogix, about 12,000 real-time tags, and a few transaction groups logging about 1,500 points of data. The project was developed originally in Ignition version 7.5 and it fully leverages templates and UDTs.
