Process manufacturing customers can now avail of Seeq Corporation’s latest release of their R21 analytics solution that is meant to streamline the analysis, prediction, and collaboration efforts in heightening production outcomes. Seeq believes that companies in oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and mining would benefit greatly from their new product.
More information about Seeq’s R21 solution can be found in Automation.com. Here is an excerpt:
R21 features reflect both the growing use of Seeq for publishing analytics-based views to other employees, and the increased complexity of the use cases where engineers use Seeq. For publishing insights, Seeq has expanded “scorecards,” a feature for the display of calculated tables in Seeq Workbench and Organizer. Scorecards are used for tabulated metrics, measurements, and other summary data, and may be presented in tables with conditional formatting support and user-defined columns, for example roll-ups by batch or plant.
In addition to new scorecard and other features, R21 also adds frequency analysis capabilities, often referred to as “FFT,” to transform segments of a time-series signal into the frequency domain. Seeq users access the frequency analysis tool via an intuitive panel which guides them through the transformation process and displays results as a power spectrum, or they can access FFT functionality as a formula in Seeq’s scripting environment.
Viewing and analyzing data in a frequency domain is a common requirement in oil & gas, power generation, and other process industries as it helps engineers understand what is causing variability and the best way to deal with it.
