The customer was experiencing issues with uploading or changing programs because the PLCs were outdated and the spare part availability was restrained. Hence, Indorama Ventures needed a service partner to modernize the outdated controller.

Siemens Service experts offered a SIMATIC S7 Modernization Service Solution, including the following details:

7 x SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers as replacement of outdated SIMATIC S7-200 controllers
9 x SIMATIC S7-1500 advanced controllers as replacement of old SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers

Additionally, all HMIs connected to these systems were replaced with a new HMI generation.

Increased accessibility and changeability for programs
Increased availability of spare parts
Increased usability and functionality of machines with additions to the systems
Better intervention of system failures
