The Emerson Solutions Center, newly opened at the company’s Automation Solutions regional headquarters in Singapore on November 17, makes use of advanced technologies including simulation and augmented and virtual reality to demonstrate how automation and IoT technologies can drive measurable improvements to the bottom line of manufacturing processes. The “first of its kind” facility is part of Emerson’s drive to make Singapore a hub for the delivery of Industrial Internet of Things technologies and services for customers across Asia Pacific

The Digital Plant, one of two built-out plant settings in the Center, includes a scaled-down replica of a process manufacturing facility equipped with Emerson’s foundational digital solutions for process control and safety systems, as well as new Industrial IoT technologies, to simulates the processes of a typical facility, such as an oil refinery, a pharmaceutical plant or a power plant. The Solutions Center also includes a Central Control Room where customers can experience simulations of critical manufacturing processes for process optimization.

Collaboration spaces featuring augmented reality and virtual reality enable customers to get an immersive experience and operate and maintain the digital plant of the future using Plantweb – Emerson’s digital ecosystem of hardware, software, intelligent devices, and services for securely implementing IIoT-based solutions. Wireless sensors, for example, feed data through a digital communications network for analysis by software programs and actionable use through apps and cloud-based services. Through the demonstrations, Emerson experts can help customers determine which digitalization projects provide the greatest near-term and long-term business impact.

Emerson Solutions Center is the latest addition to company’s growing investment in automation technologies, services, and engineering based in Singapore. Over the past three years, Emerson has established at its Singapore campus a Pervasive Sensing Center of Excellence, an Analytical Manufacturing & Integration Center, and a Global Additive Manufacturing Center. Emerson says each of these specialty centers have broadened and deepened its ability to help customers across Asia Pacific adopt Industrial IoT technologies that deliver proven results and Top Quartile performance.
