Sussex IM ICONICS GENESIS64 Implementation Case Study
Case study of Sussex IM upgrading from GENESIS32 to GENESIS64 for real-time HMI/SCADA, alarm management, and asset tracking in injection molding operations.
Sussex IM, a custom injection molder, replaced its aging GENESIS32 system with GENESIS64 to improve machine monitoring, alarm response, and production visibility. The phased rollout added plant-wide displays, variance reporting, and asset management while integrating with existing Mitsubishi Electric PLCs. Benefits include faster technician response, reduced human error in data logging, and data-driven continuous improvement.
GENESIS64 replaced GENESIS32 to deliver real-time HMI/SCADA across molding machines
Four-phase rollout covered bell system replacement, plant displays, variance logging, and asset management
Alarm visibility and pre-diagnosis reduced technician response time and repeat visits
Automated data capture eliminated manual Excel logging errors and supported CI efforts
System now serves as core operational platform with planned expansion to second facility
