Airport Information Service System Facility Management Korea Project Introduction: Project Implementation: An airport in Korea needed an industrial PC solution for their information center. The airport information center monitors and controls information in the airport at all times. The flight schedule has to be displayed all over the airport, security alarms need to be monitored and transferred to the information center, and parking lots need to be managed.
Automated Passenger Clearance System Facility Management Hong Kong Project Introduction: Project Implementation: To meet the challenges of ever-increasing passenger traffic through customs, more and more countries are choosing to employ the Automated Passenger Clearance System (APCS). In Hong Kong, the government decided to upgrade their existing system as well, dubbing their APCS the "E-Channel". With Advantech's UNO-2052E Embedded Automation Computer, all devices are integrated in an open architecture.
Wind Power Generation Monitoring System Facility Management Germany Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Advantech’s UNO-2160 has been successfully implemented in a 5,600 MW wind power generation system. It monitors the status of the generator and the communication with field PLC devices and Fieldbus equipment. Combined with customer applications, UNO-2160 is a compact, complete, and high-performance system.
Improving Reliability of Monitoring Systems in the Iron and Steel Industry Facility Management China Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Most iron and steel processors have already implemented monitoring systems that use traditional PCs or controllers for data samplings. But traditional PCs have often had problems with the rough operating environment of steel and iron mills. A customer in China wanted to create a more reliable, but also efficient monitoring system to replace their old system.
Warehouse Crane Control System in the Metal Industry Facility Management Taiwan Project Introduction: Project Implementation: A customer was using manual crane operation to move the steel inventory in their warehouse, which required additional employees on the floor to communicate with the crane operator. This was causing a lot of problems, including; shipment delays, inefficiency, and increased safety risks.
Security Monitoring System in Telecommunications Switching Facilities Facility Management USA Project Introduction: Project Implementation: A major North-American telecommunications company needed to build a reliable security monitoring system that could integrate all their required functions in one hardware platform.
Facility Management System Vending Machines in Tokyo, Japan Japan Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Since the 1880's when the first vending machines were introduced to dispense postcards, demand for these convenient product sales devices has increased rapidly. Vending machines have undergone drastic changes over the years, and just as with all devices in our society, are becoming smaller and more hightech.
Mobile Environmental Monitoring System Environmental Monitoring China Project Introduction: Project Implementation: After years of tremendous growth, Shanghai’s air quality has deteriorated. To monitor the situation, there were fixed air quality measurement stations around the city, but these proved to give different readings depending on nearby traffic conditions. The solution was to create a mobile environment monitoring system using Advantech’s UNO-2050E.
River Monitoring and Broadcasting System Environmental Monitoring Malaysia Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Flooding is a major concern for many countries worldwide, especially in the rainy seasons and during typhoons and heavy storms. To address this issue, cities are continually rebuilding and reinforcing their river embankments. This work alone may not be enough to prevent damaging floods, and if the embankments do spill out, the citizens need to be warned.
Active Camera Monitoring System at a Corporate Headquarters Building Automation USA Project Introduction: Project Implementation: A large US Corporation had trouble managing its endless hours of digital video from three dozen cameras placed all throughout its facilities. They wanted to reduce the amount of video that was recorded to save disk space, and cut down on the time needed to review the videos.
Aluminum Manufacturer Rolls Out Thin Client Technology Factory Automation USA Project Introduction: Project Implementation: One of the largest U.S. producers of rolled aluminum needed to update their aging Human Machine Interface (HMI) software without affecting production. The plant only shuts down one day each year, and all updates must be made without risking their world-class production and utilization numbers.
Pay-off with Constant Tension Machine Automation China Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Tram systems have been advancing each year by incorporating the latest innovative technologies. Recently, tram systems have been working provide steady and consistent tension on the cable, which allows them to increase speed and improve stability. To manage this technology, the pulley requires a PC to monitor and maintain constant tension while the pulley is in operation.
Self-Service Car Wash Machine Automation Taiwan Project Introduction: Project Implementation: With rising wages and 24/7 service expectations, a leading chain of gas stations in Taiwan decided to create a self-service car wash. This required that the system was fully integrated with payment systems such as credit cards, cash cards, Modex, stored value cards and membership cards. With the UNO-2170 and FPM-3150, the application has been successful, and the customer is already busy developing new features.
Metal Injection Molding Process Machine Automation USA Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Metal injection molding is a relatively new process that takes advantage of several key technologies to produce molded metal parts of various properties. Although driven by the latest technologies in Industrial Automation, the molding process is very delicate, and if any small pieces are left in the cavity after a part has been ejected, the mold can be severely damaged during the next cycle.
Mobile License Plate Recognition System Intelligent Tranportation Taiwan Project Introduction: Project Implementation: Because of its reliable design and excellent vibration resistance, UNO-2170 was chosen for a mobile License Plate Recognition (LPR) system in Taiwan. Police cars were equipped with the License Plate Recognition system to process observed license plate numbers through a central database of stolen cars at the headquarters.
