CSense International Users Conference 2006
August 2006
News
The CSense International Users Conference to be held on 17 and 18 October 2006 is an event of importance to the various process industries. The theme is 'Rapid Process Troubleshooting' and displays a range of case studies presented by end users that will illustrate the benefits achieved with CSense. The benefits that are of particular interest are quality, yield, throughput, energy management, asset efficiency and troubleshooting various process problems. The target audience is process engineers, metallurgists, automation and control professionals, production managers, and delegates from potential Solution Partners (SP).
CSense has recognised and responded to international market requirements such as leveraging advanced technology that should be robust and broadly usable in the practical process environment. At this conference, CSense end users from South Africa, several countries in Europe, the USA, Canada and Australia will present their case studies and successes with CSense. Many of these clients are global market leaders from a variety of vertical markets, such as metals and most of its segments, chemical, beverage, food, and paper and pulp.
Case studies on continuous, batch and discrete processes are discussed. Plenary sessions are complemented with parallel sessions in steel, food and beverage, advanced process control, paper and pulp, primary aluminium, furnace solutions, energy management, data validation and materials accounting, and control loop diagnostics.
To be released is CSense 4.0 which is a major new version that is based on user feedback from a rapidly growing global client base. One of the changes in the product is the ability to extract new knowledge from data, adding this to existing knowledge like best practices (for example operational philosophies), and then to configure Action Objects (online solutions) that are embedded in software industrial platforms.
CSense Systems has a new Solution Partner Programme, which offers SPs the opportunity to develop solutions on CSense and market it globally via the CSense Channel. End users will benefit from attending the conference to study the solutions provided by an increasing network of well-known SPs.
