Achieving Centralized Asset Management With Simplified Edge-to-cloud Connectivity

The company needed a service for remote monitoring of an air separation plant and collection of data with a specific set of metrics. The project objective was to develop a mathematical model to optimize the process of maintaining equipment and a number of related business processes including: procurement, supply, client relationship management, financial services, and production planning. The service should collect, transform, and store data for further analysis, as well as for further solutions:

• For remote diagnostic maintenance
• For prognostic services 
• To determine the production function
• To analyze the impact of temperature, humidity, and ambient air composition on performance

“It is one of the pioneering IIoT projects in Russia” said Sergey Belyaev, Project Director at the Strategic Project Management Division at Softline, who oversaw the pilot. “The company will widely adopt this technology within the next three years. Together with Moxa, we are already able to offer it right now.”

Summary

Challenges

  • A limitation in the legacy SCADA system means that collecting realtime data is very expensive
  • Upgrade the system without changing existing platforms or encountering costly budget overruns

Solutions

  • Moxa’s IIoT Gateway with ThingsPro support requires zero programming efforts, which simplifies OT data acquisition
  • Moxa’s IIoT Gateway uses MQTT protocol and a built-in client for Azure services to deliver OT data directly from the edge to cloud platforms
  • Microsoft Azure Cloud Services offer flexible tools for application development and secure communications via the Azure IoT hub

Results

  • Real-time monitoring of sensors and acquisition of energy consumption data
  • Analysis of equipment performance and error protection to boost productivity
