Corso Systems explains the importance and nuances of converting data into information with control and automation systems. All manufacturing companies have one thing in common: they need to get information from the plant floor to the decision makers.

Corso Systems explains the thought experiment of upgrading an aging process control system. From upgrading HMI and SCADA software, to PLCs to integrating across the enterprise. This post was originally written for Oil & Gas Engineering Magazine.

Corso Systems wrote a series about manufacturing information technology for Oil & Gas Engineering Magazine. In the series' final post we discuss how the concept of the manufacturing technology pyramid applies to manufacturing operations with real world examples.

Corso Systems wrote a series for Oil & Gas Engineering Magazine detailing the technology involved in running modern manufacturing operations. This part of the series discusses business information system integrations to connect the top floor to the shop floor and give your team full visibility into your operation.

Jaxon Energy teamed up with Corso Systems to develop a new control and information system for its Jackson, MS hydrotreating plant. We leveraged Rockwell Automation's FactoryTalk software suite for robust operator control of the plant and secure remote access to real-time information.

Corso Systems implemented FactoryTalk VantagePoint and FactoryTalk Historian to store and analyze process data at multiple facilities for a leading diatomaceous earth processing company.

A leading diatomaceous earth processing facility was storing production data in Excel spreadsheets which made it difficult to access necessary information. Corso Systems remedied this with a web-based solution including a centralized database and an interface for authorized users to enter, edit, and view the data.

Corso Systems recovered and migrated data from a failed server at a diatomaceous earth processing company which had two facilities with Wonderware Historian installations on older hardware. We migrated the Wonderware Historian configuration to FactoryTalk Historian with no data lost during import and migration.

Corso Systems wrote a series for Oil & Gas Engineering magazine detailing the entire manufacturing technology stack. This post covers data analysis systems. Data Analysis is one of the most powerful tools to anyone in a manufacturing environment. These tools give them the information they need to make decisions and improve operations.

Corso Systems wrote a series for Oil & Gas Engineering magazine discussing the technology stack for modern manufacturing. This post in the Intelligent Automation series discusses the impact and benefits of process historians on a manufacturing process and how historians and databases fit into the overall digital optimization paradigm.

Corso Systems wrote a series on the industrial manufacturing technology stack for Oil & Gas Engineering Magazine. This post discusses Control Systems and PLCs in the context of a manufacturing facility.
