SIMOCRANE application examples
SIMOCRANE CMS Crane Management System
■
Application
For multi-distributed systems, with a large number of cranes, the
system architecture using SIMOCRANE CMS and RCMS can be
used in order to interconnect all stations together and make use
of the long-term archiving system of WinCC. With the connection
of all CMS systems to the RCMS server all data can be archived
in a central database.
Application example
On a terminal with 4 STS cranes and 16 RTG cranes
SIMOCRANE
CMS provides a standard crane-specific condition
monitoring, failure analysis, playback of all crane movements
and data using replay, as well as reporting and maintenance
instructions. With the RCMS server installed in the terminal the
cranes can be monitored easily. Every crane connected to the
RCMS server sends its configured operating data and alarm
messages to the central database of the RCMS server. The data
is used to calculate KPIs of the terminal like moves, MMBF and
counter values. Furthermore, the RCMS shows the operating
status of each crane on the terminal and provides the possibility
to respond immediately to any occurring event.
Solution
In order to fulfill the requirements the following SIMOCRANE
products have to be ordered:
•
4 × SIMOCRANE CMS V4.3 Basic (STS cranes)
Article No.
6GA7214-0AB00-0AA0
•
16 × SIMOCRANE CMS V4.3 Lean (RTG cranes)
Article No.
6GA7214-0AA00-0AA0
•
1 × SIMOCRANE RCMS V4.3 Single station
Article No.
6GA7215-0AA00-0AA0
For the communication between the server and all clients a
sufficient bandwidth in form of TCP/IP must be available.
Additionally to the SIMOCRANE CMS products hardware with
the following minimum requirements are needed.
•
20 × CMS stations: The minimum requirements are as follows:
- Processor: Intel Core i3 or higher
- Main memory: minimum of 4 GB
- Hard disk: minimum 160 GB (preferably more)
- Drives: DVD ROM drive
- Operating system: Windows 7 SP1 (64 bit, enterprise/
professional), MUI (Multilingual User Interface), system
language English, US
We recommend using a SIMATIC IPC477D for every CMS
station
on the terminal.
•
1 × RCMS station: The minimum requirements are:
- Processor: Intel Quad Core i7 or higher
- Main memory: minimum of 8 GB
- Hard disk: minimum 2 × 1 TB
- Drives: DVD ROM drive
- Graphics: 2 × VGA or DVI or at least one must support a
Resolution of 1920 × 200
- Operating system: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (64 bit),
MUI (Multilingual User Interface), system language English,
US
For the RCMS server we recommend using a SIMATIC IPC847D
or SIMATIC IPC647D.
