Industry Application for Packaging





The Industry Application for Packaging is a pre-configured, bundled software module specifically designed for the needs of the packaging process. Line efficiencies and productivity are gained through fast, disciplined changeovers and visibility to throughput, performance, OEE, downtime & alarms.

Based on Wonderware System Platform, InTouch HMI and Wonderware Performance Software, the Industry Application for Packaging out-of-the-box capabilities help producers meet critical business objectives. The Industry Application for Packaging decreases costs by reducing losses, maintaining quality and consistency, with the flexibility to handle many products; and has a fast time to value, with quick deployment and a maximized ROI.

The Industry Application delivers features that meet the needs of all users. The ‘Planner’ window supports the creation, sequencing and dispatching of jobs to lines. The ‘Packaging Area Overview’ window displays the real-time status of each line. The ‘Line Detail’ window shows the status of the line and each piece of equipment in the line. The ‘Equipment Summary’ window shows the real-time status, run rate, yield and alarms. The ‘Equipment Detail’ window shows real-time performance, OEE, state and machine utilization.

Industry Application for Facilities Management





The Wonderware Industry Application for Facilities Management provides an open and standardized Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for facilities management solutions, able to collect and process building automation information from large distributed campuses or multiple buildings under central supervision.

This new application not only integrates mechanical systems, security / personnel access, fire / life safety, lighting, energy / utility, maintenance and other facility components, but also helps facility managers capture domain knowledge into standard application objects for reuse, support, maintenance and deployment across the enterprise.

Components available in The Wonderware Industry Application for Facilities Management include a library of templates with graphic components designed specifically for facilities management with animation and standard faceplates, a set of device integration and application objects, as well as Data Acquisition Servers (DAS) for native BACnet® and i.LON® SmartServer solutions. Optionally, an Application Generator Tool for BACnet systems is provided to accelerate, simplify and help standardize integration with these building and facility systems.

To facilitate integration with various systems, the base facilities platform supports standard protocols including OPC, MODBUS, SNMP, XML, ODBC as well as others for total facilities integration needs.

Key Benefits

  • Lower project cost through open, competitive choice for products, services and maintenance
  • Lower costs for connectivity and integration by accessing the broadest range of protocols and devices
  • Reduce risk with an industry proven robust, secure architecture
  • Improve productivity and maintenance by deploying a standards based solution
  • Improve efficiency with a library of proven, standards based, optimized applications
  • Reduce implementation costs by leveraging the largest global network of independent System Integrators
  • Achieve environmental sustainability through compliance with industry, regulatory and green initiatives
  • Reduce total cost of ownership by implementing a sustainable solution through the Wonderware ecosystem of partners
