Solution

Local Machine HMI

AVEVA offers flexible HMI deployment options tailored to the needs of automotive plants. It can be implemented as a single-node application at each station, providing localized monitoring and control directly where it's needed. This approach allows for independent operation and quick deployment across multiple stations. Alternatively, AVEVA can be deployed as a unified SCADA system, managed centrally, with better standard management but executed locally, at the station. This setup ensures consistent oversight and coordination across the entire plant while still allowing for localized execution and control. Both deployment models deliver robust performance, ensuring flexibility, scalability, standards and efficient management of complex automotive manufacturing processes.
