The digitization of the information that is available in reality is carried out through a Data acquisition system. Using a data acquisition system allows to obtain valuable information of the reality to improve the performance of the company and to increase the economic benefit.
Data acquisition provides greater control over an organization’s processes and faster response to failures that may occur. The procedures are optimized to the maximum to obtain products and services of quality that maximize the result of the company and increase its efficiency.
This system is controlled and supervised from PMM Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), a system of software and hardware elements that allows companies to improve their processes in real time.
Steel mills, utilities, or a research lab have some kind of data acquisition device that silently monitors some parameter. These collected data can be used to improve efficiency, ensure reliability or ensure that machinery operates safely.
With the use of real-time data acquisition systems, measurements are generated and displayed without delay. Thanks to this system, a technician can intervene faster in any problem and make the machine reach optimum performance in less time.
With the application of a system of this type, companies forget to have duplicate data and adopt a technology that facilitates the analysis of the information obtained, as it allows them to work without any noise that hinders the analysis.
This type of system automates data entry processes that were previously done by hand. Automation reduces errors by eliminating human error and misplacement.
The fewer programs that intervene in a more agile process, the more agile it will be. Thanks to a DAQ system, it ensures that the information is complete and correct without having to rely on other types of applications.
With these systems it is easier to access the database and retrieve information for processing and analysis.
By automating the process of capturing data from reality, the human factor is no longer involved and the security risks associated with this procedure are reduced.
These three processes are cheaper because data is entered faster, takes up less space, and can be retrieved in less time.
A system of this type can confirm that a system is meeting the design specifications and that a product meets the user’s needs. In addition, you can test whether a product has the quality required for marketing and detect those that are defective.
With such a system, the company’s various procedures are tracked and monitored to identify and resolve faults faster.
