IDRA Presse S.p.A. ICONICS GENESIS32 MES Case Study
Case study of IDRA Presse deploying ICONICS GENESIS32 for real-time monitoring and control of high-speed pressure die casting machines at 10,000 cycles per second.
IDRA Presse replaced its Orsi Cube system with ICONICS GENESIS32 HMI software on each die casting machine shipped to automotive customers. The system collects injection process data at high sampling rates via OPC, stores it in a Sybase database, and provides operator visualization, trending, and remote diagnostics. The implementation interfaces with Siemens and Allen-Bradley PLCs and supports customer-specific customization without extending delivery schedules.
High-speed data acquisition at 10,000 cycles/sec using external sampling system and OPC Server
GENESIS32 modules deployed: GraphWorX32, AlarmWorX32, TrendWorX32, ScriptWorX32
Dual network interface cards enable LAN data storage and customer ODBC access per machine
System interfaces with up to 4 Siemens PLCs, 1 Allen-Bradley PLC, and over 500 I/O points
30% control system changes possible under software control without impacting delivery timelines
