A high system availability is important for any factory and a malfunctioning system can cause failures, downtimes and conesquential costs. Aktas was using an outdated WinCC version. Thus, adequate troubleshooting for OC failures was not possible and production losses were caused.

Hence, Aktas needed a solution to update the existing automation software.

Siemens service experts offered a suitable upgrade for the outdated software.

The solution included the following details:

• Installation of high-performance industrial PC SIMATIC IPC 647D
• Upgrade to automation software WinCC 7.5
• Reporting and monitoring of data consumption
