ABB Ability™ Manufacturing Operations Management - Shop Flor Integration for Life Sciences

Validated, integrated and seamless solution from shop floor to ERP. It helps our customers in the manufacturing industries such as life science and food & beverage meet their regulatory requirements, produce high product quality, achieve fast time to market and benefit from significant cost savings.

Today, many solutions for the life science industry are still not or less integrated, requiring high efforts in engineering and synchronization of data between MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and DCS (Distributed Control System). Especially in GMP plants (GMP = Good Manufacturing Practices) this has as a crucial influence on time to market, quality and profitability.

The challenge for Automation suppliers is to create an efficient workflow, fulfilling FDA regulations following GAMP5 guideline (ISPE) for engineering and validation to ensure data integrity.

Shop Floor Integration provides an integration between Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and 800xA Batch Management, the integrated Batch system of ABB Ability System 800xA. It includes features for automatic parameter assignment and automatic synchronization of 800xA Batch Management recipe procedures and MES. This automated integration significantly reduce the engineering effort of the integration especially with the high validation requirements in a GMP production environment.

Shop Floor Integration is an extension to the MOM offering and runs as a native Connectivity. The connectivity uses OPC Unified Architecture (UA), which is a modern industrial communication protocol that is open, secure, efficient and cross-platform well suited for IoT communication. In a first realization, Shop Floor Integration is integrated with the MES system Werum PAS-X.
