From maintenance personnel to executives, the workforce in industrial enterprises is increasingly on the move. Rockwell Automation is expanding mobile capabilities within its enterprise manufacturing intelligence software suite to bring customers the information they need the way they want to see it. The company announced today the release of a new FactoryTalk VantagePoint Mobile App made to work natively for Windows 8.1, taking advantage of the new features in Microsoft’s latest operating system update. The app will be available in December in the Windows Store.

FactoryTalk VantagePoint移动应用程序是企业制造智能的第一个此类智能,提供了本机Windows 8.1体验,用户可以从Rockwell SoftwareTalk Software Software Suite中访问FactoryTalk Vantailpopoint集中的报告和分析。在该应用程序中,用户可以查看关键性能指标(KPI),例如能源使用,操作设备有效性(OEE)或失败/维修之间的平均时间(MTBF/MTTR)。通过触摸KPI量规或图表,用户可以深入研究FactoryTalk VantagePoint门户网站,以获取完整的,详细的报告和驱动这些指标的趋势。

Users can also pin a KPI to a live tile so the metric is always visible from the Windows 8.1 start screen. Collaboration is made easier with this app, as users can send KPI information to coworkers by simply swiping to bring up the Windows share charm. The selected KPI is then ready to send to anyone in their contact list.

“The true value of FactoryTalk VantagePoint software goes beyond offering a view into production data, it enables users to make faster, better decisions,” said Mike Pantaleano, business manager, Information Software, Rockwell Automation. “Extending its mobile reach with a Windows 8.1 app drives further collaboration and innovation among users working via mobile phones and tablets, turning plant-floor data into a powerful tool, usable from any location.”

微软是Rockwell Automation Partnernetwork计划中的战略联盟合作伙伴。两家公司一直在集成FactoryTalk VantagePoint与SharePoint,Excel,SQL Server报告服务等。最新的产品为用户提供了其他机会,以改善数据驱动的决策并增加员工,部门和位置之间的协作。

“We are in the business of helping customers unlock actionable data from disparate manufacturing and business systems, enabling their teams to collaborate and effect real change in their organization,” said Dave Patterson, owner, Grantek Systems Integration Inc. “We leverage manufacturing intelligence solutions from Rockwell Automation to accomplish this, and this new app from Rockwell Automation and Microsoft truly arms everyone from executives to manufacturing personnel on Windows 8.1 devices with immediate information, providing a simple presentation of complex data.”

Rockwell Automation于11月13日至14日在休斯敦的George R. Brown Convertion Center举办的Automation Fair活动上,公开预览了FactoryTalk VantagePoint移动应用程序。包括针对潜在客户的演示模式。
