Composition of the information management system for DCS supporting factories
Thread Content
What hardware and software are required to constitute the information management system for DCS supporting factories?
This thing can be big or small. It depends on your needs. Typical information systems communicate with DCS through OPC interfaces; there is a real-time server on this side, and a historical server can also be used if trend analysis is required. If you want to view factory data through a browser, a WEB server is also required. Contact a manufacturer that specializes in MES systems and ask them; you’ll understand everything once you do.

Specifically, the scale can vary; you can reach out to several manufacturers for discussions, and after those talks, select a company that you think is suitable to have them prepare a proposal. This proposal needs to be reviewed, and it must also be approved by senior management before the tender documents are prepared and the bidding process is initiated
