Optimize Energy Usage with Analysis and Reporting Tools

June 24, 2010
 

RSEnergyMetrix and FactoryTalk VantagePoint from Rockwell Automation provide a comprehensive toolkit to capture, analyze and report on energy consumption data, enabling users to better manage usage, improve energy purchasing power, and increase profitability.

The RSEnergyMetrix software suite includes communication and applications to provide real-time energy management information via a Web interface, helping to optimize energy procurement, avoid unscheduled shutdown, and provide accurate energy cost-accounting that can be relied upon in manufacturing cost projections.

FactoryTalkVantagePoint incorporates the real-time data from RSEnergyMetrix, along with data from the range of other sources within the plant, to provide the analytical context that turns data into manufacturing intelligence. With its unified information architecture, VantagePoint produces Web-based reports, trends and dashboards that can be used to manage cost, quality and resources more effectively.

Benefits include:
• Improve production agility by monitoring asset availability and capacity;
• Lower cost-per-unit by minimizing scrap and waste and conserving energy;
• Track power quality to ensure better asset utilization and increase the life of capital assets;
• Decrease overhead costs by saving time in collecting data and preparing reports.
