Ignition-Based UNS Provides Real-Time Orchestration For Pharmaceutical Company

The FMS (Factory Management System) is a real-time automation orchestrator for the entire plant, including production equipment, intra-plant logistics, warehouses, utilities and clean rooms. Through the integration with Level 2, 3 and 4 applications, the FMS delivers a layer of abstraction and a single-point-of-access that allows operations to monitor and control all processes in real time. FMS’ abstraction layer is based on the concept of the Unified Namespace where all applications can exchange the required information for process automation in a decoupled architecture and where Cinfa has set the information semantic model of its business.
