What comes to mind when you hear the word “app”? WhatsApp? TikTok? Linked-in? Broadening our scope from these examples that deliver entertainment and connection, what can apps do for users in the process industries? Quite simply, an app is an application software that generates benefits for the user - on your mobile device, in the cloud or on a server 'under the desk'. Let’s take a look at three apps for process instrumentation, exploring their different approaches as well as their advantages.
Pharmaceutical powders form the basis for numerous antibiotics that are essential for comprehensive medical care. However, margins are low and production conditions are complex. This has led to a shift of manufacturing capacities to lower-cost markets. With this development in mind, how can supply bottlenecks be avoided? And what does it take to revive local production?
The DCS has been the link to production information from the plant floor for decades. We interviewed Mark Taft from ABB who gives a review on DCS technology, digital transformation, and sustainable production.
