With the zenon Challenge an international competition was born - where the technical know-how, creativity and innovative spirit of automation experts are the key focus. The task of the participants is to build a model using zenon and a LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 kit which would come to life with COPA-DATA’s control and visualization.
Bausch + Ströbel is now using zenon from COPA-DATA as a company-wide platform for process and information management. The globally-active specialist machine builder uses the HMI/SCADA solution for machine operation, logging operational data and the control and monitoring of individual machines and production lines for the pharmaceutical, chemical and cosmetic industry.
COPA-DATA, the technological leader for ergonomic process solutions in automation has appointed Martyn Williams as UK Managing Director with immediate effect. Martyn will head up the UK operation as it continues to grow into new markets.
At this year`s SPS IPC Drives 2012, COPA-DATA is presenting the zenon 7 Product Family to a wide audience in Germany. Above all, zenon 7 distinguishes itself through its full Multi-Touch support, many more ergonomic enhancements, tools for efficient working as well as maximum performance and security. Due to the anticipated legal specifications for Energy and Environmental Management Systems, the HMI/SCADA specialist is placing additional focus on the monitoring and management of energy consumption. With zenon, customers can increase their energy efficiency and continually save on costs.
COPA-DATA was one of the first providers to introduce a fully-developed OPC client in July 2009. Around a year later, the integration of the OPC UA server into zenon followed, which has now been certified by the OPC Foundation.
