Data Visualization and Operation (SIMATIC WinCC)

Written by Electro-Matic | Jul 30, 2024

Data is one thing, but ultimately you need to be able to understand and use it quickly to derive the right actions from it. In addition, all the data necessary for visualization must be available to the machine operator. Therefore, machine builders need to meet user requirements for access and archiving of all data points. The processed data is then used to create a visualization that allows a variety of extensions and adjustments based on the customer’s needs. Implementing data analytics functionalities will enable smart dashboarding and notification solutions. WinCC Unified offers you a scalable visualization system for different platforms, environmental conditions and use cases.

Key Features WinCC Unified

  • Flexible Access: get access to the Runtime with every HTML5 web browser
  • Open data flow: Connect and integrate 3rd party tools with IT technologies
  • Expandability: Expand the functionality with our ready to use Plan Intelligence Options
  • Scalability: One software with high level of reusability and consistent configuration across all platforms

One scalable system for different platforms, environmental conditions and use cases.

  • Use pre-defined structure layout HMI and PLC (Machine Template) to create the starting point of the project
  • If you already have an existing project apply a preconfigured navigation layout and template screens (HMI Template Suite) to improve the design
  • Solve wide variety of automation tasks by use pre-defined content library for basic processes within TIA-Portal
  • Visualization based on WinCC Unified
  • Display the machine state in the panel with pre-defined controls and elements which can be easily configured in the TIA Portal
  • Centrally configure the core and easily reuse and display it to various output formats (panel/PC)
