Technews Industry Guide: Industrial Internet of Things 2017 Flow Measurement & Control

To make effective decisions, the availability of high quality online and real-time data is essential. From simple monitoring and visualisation of tanks and silos through to monitoring on a global scale: Endress+Hauser’s modular solutions for inventory control guarantee complete inventory visibility 24/7/365, anywhere in the world. This helps to reduce the complexities in logistics and supply chains, which are troubling a large number of companies from different industries.

From sensor to boardroom

Inventory control architecture is quite simple: all you need is field devices, gateways and the right software package. And, of course, a partner on whom you can rely in the configuration of components and systems. With its portfolio of measurement instruments, gateways and software packages, Endress+Hauser can customise a solution to fit any requirements.

Vendor managed inventory

The automated and efficient management of business processes must not be confined to the company alone. Collaborating with business partners, can lead to the evolution of more efficient business models. One such model is vendor managed inventory, where the supplier is responsible for the replenishment and delivery of material to customers.

Simple visualisation of silos and tanks

It is typical in many manufacturing operations that stock values are not measured and displayed consistently in real time. As a result, the treatment of inventory data is largely manual, leading to potential data errors as well as labour duplication. This often causes high stock levels, high inventory costs and decisions that are based on feelings, not on facts. The Fieldgate solution for inventory control guarantees simple monitoring and visualisation of tanks and silos to solve the typical problems already mentioned.

Fieldgate FXA42 is developed for remote monitoring of field devices with digital or 4-20 mA interfaces, regardless of location. It supports communication interfaces like WLAN, 3G and Modbus, and with its integrated web server technology measured values can easily be visualised online. FXA42 also offers data logging and alarm management functions.
