Honeywell opens interactive demonstration centre
Honeywell has opened a US$5 million interactive demonstration centre to give its industrial customers a glimpse into the future of managing manufacturing operations.
The Customer Experience Center (CEC) - located at Honeywell Process Solutions’ global headquarters in Houston, Texas - brings to life some of the latest, high-tech innovations for customers in the oil and gas, refining, petrochemicals, mining, power generation, pulp and paper and other industries.
“There’s only so much someone can learn about a new technology by talking about it. The goal of the CEC is to physically show our customers what these systems look like and how they can help them solve their most daunting manufacturing challenges,” said Olivier Biebuyck, global vice president of marketing and strategy, Honeywell Process Solutions.
CEC highlights include field instrument technologies - such as transmitters used to monitor pipelines - that have been transformed in recent years into smart devices that deliver more-relevant information to operators in the control room, as well as to mobile operators.
The centre also demonstrates how safety, physical and cyber security systems can be integrated within facilities to achieve asset protection, and features advanced software that helps manufacturers design their processes, train their operators and optimise daily operations.
