GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has developed Version 5.1 of Proficy® Batch Execution, which is highlighted by new features that focus on ease of use, performance and system integration designed to improve the design, maintenance and operation of batch processes. Version 5.1 includes a Tabular Recipe Editor, new ActiveX Controls and integration with Proficy® Process Systems.

“We are finding more customers in more industries interested in taking advantage of our ISA S88-based Batch solutions,” comments Steve Ryan, director of process solutions for GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms. “Our latest release greatly simplifies batch systems development and deployment, while providing the comprehensive capability and power of S88. Whether providing batch solutions for an OEM skid or replacing a previous custom batch system, Proficy Batch Execution software provides a cost-effective simple batch approach that can scale and be standards based. Our new Tabular Recipe Editor, with its spreadsheet feel and style, allows engineers to be much more efficient in managing their batch operations.

“We are finding more customers looking for that competitive edge, for a more comprehensive approach to close the gap that has long existed between information and automation systems, and obtain process visibility and analytics to help them optimize their processes, to deliver performance,” continues Ryan. “Our Batch 5.1 release closes that gap leveraging our Proficy architecture and strong suite of execution, analytics and optimization applications ... The ability for customers to seamlessly integrate our batch management capability to our process control system, Proficy Process Systems, means that they can obtain even greater value from their GE Fanuc process solutions.”

Batch Execution 5.1 introduces a new ActiveX Control that simplifies the operation of the batch system. According to the company, the control allows users to view the active phases of the recipes being executed, along with the key parameters that are being collected for each phase. Other significant features include new driver support, enhanced tag templates, key quality parameters, recipe export to XML and other performance enhancements.
