Schneider Electric StruxureWare Plant Operation Ampla 2014

Friday, 23 January, 2015 | Supplied by: Schneider Electric


Designed primarily for mining, minerals and metals industries, StruxureWare Plant Operation Ampla 2014 is designed to help improve operational performance. Ampla’s operation management functionality delivers real-time visibility of plant and business information so users can improve competitiveness in global markets. By driving the optimisation of production, processes and performance, Plant Operation Ampla increases operational efficiencies and reduces energy consumption.

The update introduces the concept of material classes and test specifications to its Material Model. Materials can be categorised based on the amount of processing they have undergone - for example, from un-prepped ore to blended ore. Material classes can be used together with structured material naming to allow material origins to be readily identified when data from multiple sites are combined. The result is fewer configuration points while delivering greater visibility into the entire value chain.

The update also delivers enhancements to its planning module with easy comparison of planned and actual figures. The tool delivers visibility of processes and performance - deviations from plan can be highlighted, providing an initiation point for root-cause analysis.

Support for larger sites has also been improved, as well as for distributed systems and higher numbers of users accessing data. To improve performance and scalability, the update enables load distribution through SQL Server Always On which, combined with many other internal optimisations, improves performance and scalability. In addition, the expanded use of web services and service oriented architecture (SOA) reflects an ongoing commitment to reduce the TCO for users.
