Operator Effectiveness

Human factors in focus
The operators’ ability to supervise and control processes in the most efficient, safe and profitable way.

Operator decisions have a great impact on safety, productivity and quality. Not only technical features are essential for System 800xA, but also enhancing the human roll behind the machine. Effectiveness is characterized by creating an ideal working environment with all essential functions at the operator's fingertips.

How does it work?

Collaboration enabler
Integrated operations guarantee for highest productivity.

PLCs, DCS, safety systems, electrical systems, live video, maintenance systems, ERPs and more all work together in one seamless environment in System 800xA - fully integrated. The result is improved plant visibility and fast access to relevant information in real time. Our solutions save control room floor space using modular design and integrating information into one operator environment.

What's next?

Enhancing control room design even further
Together we design the control rooms of the future.

ABB gets people and systems collaborating more efficiently by designing control centers, control rooms and workplaces with a focus on human factors and communication, and how that results in better productivity. Attracting new-generation operators with an integrative, safe and effective environment that provides an intuitive handling of actions is one of our outlooks.
