GE and Siemens jointly promote the in-depth application of edge computing in process automation
At the Hannover Messe in Germany in April this year, GE and Siemens jointly demonstrated their process automation control system based on edge computing. The solution integrates GE’s Predix platform and Siemens’ Edge Devices, enabling local processing of key data on the device side, significantly reducing latency and improving control response speed. The new system is particularly suitable for scenarios with high real-time requirements such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and food processing. In the on-site demonstration, the system shortened the response time of pump and valve switches by 30%, and supported seamless integration with other brand control systems such as Allen-Bradley…
ABB launches AI-driven smart substation solution to help upgrade Industry 4.0
ABB recently announced the launch of its new AI-driven smart substation solution. The system combines ABB’s leading automation technology with artificial intelligence algorithms to achieve more accurate load forecasting and real-time fault self-healing, improving the stability and efficiency of the power system. This release marks another major progress in ABB’s transformation to smart grids and Industry 4.0. The system has been first deployed in the energy management system of a large European manufacturing company, and operating data shows that energy efficiency has increased by about 18%. Recommended products: AC800M controller: executes optimization algorithms to achieve closed-loop control. ABB protection relays:…
