The Secrets of Highly Effective HMIs

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.
