关于客户
Heinen & Hopman 是一家海洋工业专家,设计、制造和安装空调、通风、中央供暖和制冷系统。该公司已为全球 10,000 多艘船舶提供产品 — 不仅包括商用船舶,还包括最先进的海军舰艇、超级游艇和海上平台。Heinen & Hopman 的装配工每天都使用手机、笔记本电脑和平板电脑来完成工作。他们需要稳定、可靠和安全的互联网连接才能使用应用程序,例如他们正在工作的船舶的 3D 可视化。装配工主要在造船厂和其他偏远地区工作,经常遇到网络连接不佳的情况,并且经常出现连接中断的情况。
挑战
海英和霍普曼是一家专门从事海洋行业的公司,该公司面临的挑战是,他们的装配工在工作现场遇到了连接问题。装配工每天都使用手机、笔记本电脑和平板电脑来完成工作。他们需要稳定、可靠和安全的互联网连接才能使用应用程序,例如他们正在工作的船舶的 3D 可视化。由于装配工主要在造船厂和其他偏远地区工作,他们经常不得不处理网络连接不良的问题,并且经常遇到连接中断的情况。对于 IT 顾问来说,重新建立连接很容易,但对于项目经理或装配工来说,这是一项耗时的苦差事。必须反复重新建立 VPN 连接意味着他们浪费了大量时间,同时他们无法访问所需的最新基本信息。有一段时间,工人们试图在笔记本电脑上携带静态版本的图纸以供现场使用,但如果没有可靠的连接和同步,图纸就会过时。
解决方案
Heinen & Hopman 向 NetMotion 实施合作伙伴 NetBoss BV 寻求帮助,后者提供了移动解决方案 — NetMotion 移动性能管理软件的一部分。在成功验证概念后,该软件投入生产。装配工立即能够随时随地访问重要数据。现在,工人可以从任何地方访问有关船舶的重要数据,而不会中断。他们可以随身携带设备,这意味着他们不需要经常回到码头或岸上的办公室。设置基于软件的移动基础设施可以快速创建策略。这些策略会根据某些条件自动生效。例如,当连接为 3G 或更低时,只允许使用主要应用程序。由于只有关键应用程序使用可用带宽,这些策略可确保它们继续良好运行。当连接发生变化时,会话将继续在后台运行,这意味着无需再次登录。

Drill ship power challenge: hybrid solution solves distribution issues
Aspin Kemp & Associates (AKA), a manufacturer of electrical power and control systems headquartered in Montague, PEI, encountered one with its hybrid power initiative, the first hybrid drill floor destined for installation on ultra-deepwater drill ships operated by Transocean, Swiss offshore drilling contractors. Since on-site modification was impossible and scrap recycling of any modifications was unacceptable, the enclosures had to arrive ready-to-install.

Ensures Tanker Safety and Emissions Compliance
Storage tanks are irregular in shape and a certain amount of mathematical modelling is required to get an accurate representation of volume and, more importantly, the weight of material in each tank. In addition, countries have different emission regulations, so the ships position needed to be accurately known in order to geotag emission data.

Real-time Networked Sonar System for Ships
A multinational, knowledge-based corporation that delivers marine electronics solutions is utilizing industrial Ethernet technology to help ensure that operations at sea are dependable and optimal. Based in Europe, the company has nearly 4000 employees working in 20 countries around the world, and produces high-tech systems for offshore oil and gas operations, merchant marine systems, and various applications for the defense and aerospace industries. The company produces products and systems used by merchant vessels and offshore installations for positioning, navigation, automation, as well as for surveying and monitoring the seabed, and for fishing vessels and fi sheries research. As one of the major suppliers of high quality marine electronics in the world, their products include chart plotters for yachts, triple redundant dynamic positioning systems for oil drilling rigs, and sonar and instrument systems for scientifi c research vessels. Products used for marine applications must be rugged enough to endure the corrosive effects of salt water, and be able to withstand excessive amounts of vibration and shock. For this reason, the company only uses DNV and GL certified products and components to ensure that their systems can meet the high standards required by the maritime industry.

Mitsubishi Electric's Edge Computing Solution Powered by Wind River VxWorks
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a global leader in factory automation (FA) applications, identified edge computing as a critical component of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The company aimed to enhance device and data security, reduce data traffic to the cloud, and enable faster response to network or device issues. In 2018, Mitsubishi Electric launched its first line of industrial hardware products designed for edge computing, the MELIPC Series. The primary development goals for MELIPC were to support the type of edge computing promoted by Mitsubishi Electric and to introduce advanced vision technology for device control. The flagship computer of the MELIPC line, the MI5000, was designed to combine real-time equipment control with high-speed data collection, processing, diagnosis, and feedback in a single machine. However, the development team needed a real-time control platform that could seamlessly integrate real-time control with proven analytic and diagnostic applications.
