Posted on: Wednesday, 25 June 2008, 12:02 CDT
Schneider Electric's Citect, a provider of software for industrial automation, has released the latest version of its Manufacturing Execution System software, Ampla.
To assist global manufacturing and mining companies to increase production efficiencies and return greater profits, Ampla v4.0, introduces a new Inventory module, enabling real-time visibility into production and consumption of materials.
Ampla Inventory was designed to follow the ISA 95 manufacturing standard, allowing manufacturers to gain more control and visibility of production at work centre levels, such as production units and storage zones.
The module was further enhanced for mining, mineral and metal companies to support the unique inventory needs at various stages of processing, such as Mills, Stockpiles, Concentrators, and Furnaces. This real time visibility provides mining, minerals processing and metal companies with the plant data required to respond to spot market opportunities.
Ampla V4.0 introduces the availability to host Ampla on a cluster of Application Servers. This enhanced functionality, distributes the processing among several machines enabling efficiencies that include improved stability, faster query processing, user load scalability and better fault tolerance. This architecture enables a suite of new deployment topologies which improves Ampla's support to customers with distributed or enterprise deployment scenarios.
