Publication number: 20230341840Abstract: A cloud-based industrial data services (IDS) architecture leverage smart tags, asset models, and data service applications to facilitate secure transaction and exchange of contextualized factory data between different parties as part of a combined technology and commerce platform, or to perform provide asset owners with insights into operation of their industrial assets. The IDS platform supports a set of services that connect providers of smart industrial devices to plant floor and systems owned by the end users of these devices. The cloud-based platform allows asset providers to publish data service applications for purchase and use by end users of their assets, and allows equipment owners to control remote access to selected sets of their industrial data via the cloud platform.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventors: JOACHIM THOMSEN, STEPHEN C. BRIANT, MANUEL SUKERMAN, JUERGEN K. WEINHOFER, SUJEET CHAND, SCOTT A. MILLER, NOEL HENDERSON, BRUCE E. HAMMON

Publication number: 20230280723Abstract: An industrial gateway device supports interactive feature engineering tools that guide a user through an intuitive process for configuring data analytics for key performance indicators (KPIs) of interest. A feature engineering interface renders an interactive model view that displays available data points such that the data points are organized hierarchically according to plant, machine, machine property, or other elements. The user can select, from this model view, data points having an impact on the KPI of interest. The interface also allows the user to define an executable script that defines a mathematical relationship between the selected data points and the KPI. This configuration yields an output model that defines a reduced set of data points to be collected and analyzed, as well as an executable script for assessing a state of the KPI as a function of the reduced data point values.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Achim Thomsen, Cyril Perducat, Manuel Sukerman, Arvind Vijayanagar Rao, Chirayu Shah, Stephen C. Briant, Bijan SayyarRodsari

Publication number: 20230131783Abstract: A state machine management component that executes on an edge device within an industrial facility is capable of discovering state machines defined on industrial controllers and translating the state machine definitions to information models that allow the state machines to be discovered and utilized by remote client applications. The edge-level information models allow the client applications to render or consume the state machine data generated by the controller, graphically render the state machines, submit commands, or set values, to the controller as state machine commands via the edge device. The edge-level system thus allows client applications with no prior knowledge of the control-level state machines to discover, retrieve, and interact with state machines defined on the industrial controllers.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2021Publication date: April 27, 2023Inventors: Joachim Thomsen, Stephen C Briant, Martin Petrick, Frank Jordan, MANUEL SUKERMAN, Daniel J Aardsma, JOHN B DART, Derrick Tapscott, James Butler

Publication number: 20220092229Abstract: An industrial data presentation system leverages structured data types defined on industrial devices to generate and deliver meaningful presentations of industrial data. Industrial devices are configured to support structured data types referred to as basic information data types (BIDTs) comprising a finite set of structured information data types, including a rate data type, a state data type, an odometer data type, and an event data type. The BIDTs are discoverable by a gateway device on which models of industrial assets can be defined, where the models reference the BIDTs defined on the industrial devices. The gateway device can retrieve industrial data from the data tags, formatted in accordance with the data types and associated user-defined metadata specific to the respective data types. The gateway device or a separate application server system can then generate graphical presentations of the industrial data in accordance with the model and the metadata.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2021Publication date: March 24, 2022Inventors: Joachim Thomsen, Stephen C. Briant, Noel Henderson, Manuel Sukerman, Daniel B. Seger, Scott N. Sandler
