Schneider to showcase EcoStruxure at AIMEX 2013
Schneider Electric will demonstrate its EcoStruxure solution architecture at AIMEX, Asia-Pacific’s International Mining Expo, from 20 to 23 August.
“At AIMEX 2013, Schneider Electric is showcasing solutions that make mining operations more efficient, productive, safe and sustainable,” said Vinod Kandoi, National Segment Manager, Mining Minerals & Metals, Schneider Electric.
The showcase will include a special focus on several key operational efficiency solutions:
- Operational intelligence to optimise a mine’s performance: How a mine execution system (MES) can continuously monitor asset performance in real time, identify opportunities to optimise production output, reduce operating costs and decrease waste.
- Mine-to-port logistics: For mine-to-port operations, the Integrated Planning and Optimisation System has specific functionality for a range of mining environments. These include stockpile management, advanced blending, transport scheduling, demand and supply planning, maintenance planning, scenario management and intelligent reporting. It is a ‘cross-silo’ optimisation system that provides a ‘One-Version-of-the-Truth’ view of a given supply chain and optimises all known variables to provide a business best outcome, rather than a silo optimised result.
- Process automation: How PlantStruxure PES (Process Expert System), Schneider Electric’s new process automation system that is said to bring together the best from the PLC/SCADA and DCS worlds, combines with integrated energy-management features, to deliver superior value throughout the life cycle of a plant.
The EcoStruxure solution architecture combines the five key business domains of power, process and machine, IT room, building and security management. It also incorporates StruxureWare software applications and suites, which unify the above domains so that users can see, measure and manage efficiency across entire processes, at the enterprise, operations and control levels.
