neo System Access

Fast and secure

William D. – Plant Manager – Water supply company

How can we operate distributed plants from a central control room?

In process industries, various plants, distributed all over the globe have to be operated safely and efficiently. The challenges are e.g.: Different systems, at different stages, with different personnel – this can create problems. Thanks to the web-based SIMATIC PCS neo, every operator has fast, simple and secure access to every decentralized system, making remote operation easier than ever before. Valuable insights like dashboards, production and status information, alarms and much more is available directly. In addition, maintenance teams on site benefit from web-based and device independent access, because they have all relevant diagnostic and maintenance information available e.g. on their tablet or laptop directly within the plant. Get a new perspective on what is possible now in the world of operation and maintenance!

Web-based access

Immediate and secure access to the control system – simply via the web browser!

Remote access

Fast and reliable access to distributed assets – and operator stations on site. 

Device-independent

Secure system access via the web browser from anywhere and with any connected device.

neo Scalability

Seamlessly scalable

Adam V. – Planning Engineer – Chemical company

How can I flexibly plan and expand my plant?

SIMATIC PCS neo will grow with your requirements. Seamlessly! The control system permits the plug-and-produce integration of automation modules and package units (MTP) in line with the latest version of the standard. The web-based approach and its lean architecture offer maximum plant scalability with rapid expansion of automation and additional users. Due to its open structure, modular automation concepts are implemented quickly and effectively, and reliably put into service. This gives scalability a whole new dimension!

Highly scalable

Maximum plant scalability thanks to the rapid expansion of automation, application and architecture.

Online expandable

Virtual change testing with the integrated simulation before approving and publishing the expansion.

Modularization

Importing a pre-tested and production-ready module or package unit with all information

neo Usability

Simple, intuitive operation

Estefania B. – Manager Automation – International food company

How can we minimize delays and ensure consistency in our automation projects?

With SIMATIC PCS neo, it´s possible to accelerate project execution on-demand and verify the work upfront through the digital twin, using simulation. This really speeds up processes. The always consistent object-oriented data model and the common workbench for all tasks, combined with an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) on both fixed and portable devices support our engineering and operating personnel. Here’s just one example: Compared to other systems, you can reduce the number of clicks to commission a measuring point by 50%.

Intuitive GUI

A clearly structured graphical user interface with a consistent workbench for all applications.

Data management

Object-oriented data management based on process objects to enable highest consistency.

User guidance

Intelligent assistants help to filter information and communicate with the system in a targeted manner.

neo Collaboration

Global and web-based

Torsten G. – Head of automation – Global engineering company (ECG)

How do we achieve transparency and consistent project data during engineering?

SIMATIC PCS neo offers valuable support for transparency and consistency to a global team of stakeholders during an engineering project. The system provides each user with independent sessions within the same shared project to execute their work in, but on a single, consistent database. Once their work is complete, they can safely and securely share their content to the rest of the project, while SIMATIC PCS neo automatically avoids conflicts in engineering data. You can easily track the project’s progress, and even take advantage of engineering tools like COMOS to further optimize engineering.

Multi-user work

Efficient web-based collaboration opens up new possibilities by working in parallel.

Commissioning

Faster commissioning thanks to virtual simulation and all tools integrated in one workbench.

Discipline spanning

Facilitates interdisciplinary work thanks to flexible project work on a central, object-oriented data base.
