Kulikov A.V., Tyurin O.G., Kornelyuk O.A.  Application of process design technology to the development of automated control systems for high-hazard process plants

The experience of design and development of automated control systems for high-hazard processes plants is discussed with the case study of nitroester production. The most effective control variant was developed by means of high-hazard plant design methodology. As against the traditional concept of safety as the plant state with the fixed hazard level, the methodology considers safety as a process aimed at diminishing all process hazard components.

Keywords: process control system, nitroesters, emergency automation, safety.

Bugrov P.  Supervision and control system for therapeutic proteins production line of a pharmaceutical plant

The paper describes the supervision and control system for therapeutic proteins production line at the Yaroslavl Pharmaceutical Complex. The system is based on Wonderware solutions in compliance with international GMP (good manufacturing practice)) standards.

Keywords: supervision system, control, therapeutic proteins production, fault-tolerance, interface.

ERP and MRP systems

Koroban’ E.I.  Mobile SAP ERP PM module and reliability strategy: implementation experience

The paper describes the project implemented by BDO for a major client on the basis of SAP ERP Plant Maintenance module. The project objective was the implementation of mobile plant maintenance functionality and the related reliability strategy including the development of custom functions per client’s request. Project results and further system development outlook are included.

Keywords: equipment maintenance, mobility, reliability planning.

Molchanov A.Yu.  Mobile applications in physical asset management systems

The application of mobile devices improves the efficiency of information systems for physical asset management. Control plant specificity often requires stand-alone operation of mobile devices within the information system. The paper overviews the related concepts and technologies.

Keywords: physical asset management, EAM, information system, mobile applications.

Reshetnikov I.S.  System landscape of modern MES

A conceptual model of MES landscape design for a discrete manufacturing plant is offered. The advantages of modularity, standardization, and system lifecycle management of control system’s elements are discussed.

Keywords: process control system, MES, ERP, discrete manufacturing, lifecycle, validation, functional and technical requirements.

Mauergauz Yu.E.  Group scheduling for a complex manufacturing line

The paper examines production scheduling for a complex line with an example of aluminum shape manufacturing. The term ‘complex line’ is used to designate an adaptive manufacturing line for a wide range of products; the line comprises of several work centers aimed at various process operations. The scheduling technique is based on simultaneous application of two criteria: relative equipment repurposing expense and average utility of order execution. The effect of variable-length buffers on line operation are examined. The orders can be split or combined in working centers and buffers. A software suite is developed which enables the scheduling for medium work scope. Its running results in a set of nondominated (unimprovable) schedules offered to the user as a final solution.

Keywords: group schedules, production intensity, stream buffer, aluminum shape.

Ivakhnenko A.G., Anikeeva O.V., Storublev M.L.  A state space model of enterprise product quality and activity quality management

The paper offers a state space model of a quality management system at the level of industrial enterprise activity. The values of quality management targets values and their change rate are included in the model as state variables thus enabling the use of available information flows. An example of a linearized model application for four variants of specific conditions of a quality management system operation is cited.

Keywords: quality, products, process, mathematical model, state space, quality management system.

Vedmid P.A.  Quality management for digital manufacturing

The paper examines the requirements to quality management in digital manufacturing, its automation using quality management systems (QMS), typical functionality and architecture of such systems. It discusses their integration with production management systems and offers some approaches to their feasibility analysis.

Keywords: digital manufacturing, Industry 4.0, quality management systems, integration, production management systems, risk analysis, Deming wheel, gap management, cost of quality.

Kochkovskaya S.S., Serdyuk A.I.  Architecture and software implementation of an inventory management subsystem of a production management system at a steel mill

The architecture of an inventory management subsystem of a steel mill is discussed. Key modules and their interrelations in a software suite integrated in the existing production management system of ORMETO-YUMZ engineering plant are outlined.

Keywords: steel mill, inventory management subsystem, architecture.

Voronin A.A., Dubinko K.E., Isaeva I.I.  Designing environmental and economic management of river valley areas

An approach to the synthesis of the system of environmental and economic management of river valley areas is proposed. The approach combines hydraulic engineering projects and organizational mechanisms for stabilizing their ecosystems. The results of the interdisciplinary simulation of the project for sustainable flooding of ecologically significant areas of the northern part of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain are presented.

Keywords: environmental and economic management, river valleys, weakly stable systems, Volga-Akhtuba floodplain, hydrodynamic and geoinformation modeling, stream optimization in networks.

Romanyuk E.V., Fedorov A.V.  The features of automatizing an aspiration system with granular filters

A new approach to automated dust collection control in granular filters is discussed. A design of a granular filter enabling such control technology is offered. A closed-loop cleaning scheme is examined with the example from polymers production.

Keywords: automation, aspiration system , dust collection, dust, bulk layers, granular filters.
