Today's industries face persistent competitive pressures that demand more than just efficient production processes. Flexibility and continuous innovation are critical to economic success. Learn how the Software Defined Standard is emerging as a game-changer that addresses the critical role of machine availability in mitigating unforeseen disruptions and their associated costs and delays.
Historically, operational technology (OT) has been hardware-centric, resulting in significant hardware dependency, diverse standards, and challenging collaboration. The traditional hardware-centric programming approach still requires constant upgrades and retraining, which leads to significant costs and quality losses. To truly make manufacturing smart and drive innovation, it is essential to move to a software-centric approach.
The innovative approach of the Software Defined Standard decouples software from hardware, giving companies the freedom to choose hardware based on individual needs and minimizing dependencies. The emphasis on software creates a unified framework from programming to machine operation, enabling user-friendly applications and significant quality improvements. Increased software quality not only ensures process stability, but also maximizes machine uptime and puts machine behavior completely under control. Real-time monitoring enables rapid identification and resolution of problems in critical situations.
The Software Defined Standard offers unparalleled flexibility for your production. Whether for new or existing plants, Selmo can be implemented in any environment that supports PLCopen XML. This allows even aging machines and equipment to be upgraded to the latest technological standards.
