Plantweb™ Optics Platform

Systems, data, and people spread across the enterprise and isolated in silos makes it difficult to identify issues impacting operational performance at the plant and business performance across the enterprise. The next generation of OT data management needs to seamlessly connect people, processes, and data to deliver a unified strategy across the enterprise that brings long-term value and a return on your investment. 

Emerson’s Plantweb Optics Platform securely and efficiently connect and collects global operational data from manufacturing, process control, and IT systems without disruption, contextualizes it, and transforms it into actionable information, which is presented to every decision-maker on any device, anytime, at any location. Gone are the days of OT data silos and you now have a single location to manage, protect, and easily integrate OT data with IT tools and cloud applications. 

Instead of having IT install and connect many different systems - energy management, reliability asset software, machine learning, and AI-- comprehensive data and analytics solutions all exist in one package. Plantweb Optics offers a variety of custom connections into the platform designed out-of-the-box to easily connect to multiple applications and bring your data into a central repository where it is automatically connected to critical data management tools such as AI- and ML-based analytics, and integration to CMMS enabling closed workflows.

Flexible for nearly every file format

• Store and automatically organize nearly any file format for both manual and automated data collection to let any user access the data they need whenever they need it.

Eliminate the need to transfer data

• Leverage built-in analytics in the same place where data is collected increasing security, reliability, and deduplication of data by eliminating the need for transferring that data.

Make the most of your analytic tools

• Automatically aggregate and collate data in a central repository, so that users and critical systems can find anything they need in one place for more efficient analytics, trending, and reporting.

Monitor Every Asset

• Do not worry about every measurement point or tag that you are monitoring. Plantweb Optics uses a core-based licensing structure enabling users to cost-effectively monitor every asset in the plant without worrying about legacy licensing practices.

When something goes wrong on site, every hour of downtime is critical. With Live Remote Assistance, there is no need to wait for an expert to travel to the site as they can guide field workers throughout the whole troubleshooting process. The fieldworker and the remote expert can collaborate visually using Plantweb Optics Augmented Reality to efficiently resolve issues.
