Manufacturing
“A disruption to the data and applications would affect every employee, and in the worst case scenario, halt operations altogether. But with everRun, we no longer have to worry about downtime.”
- Asmir Hrustanbegovic, IT specialist, MAN AG, Vehicle Manufacturing
For manufacturers, even a minute of downtime can spoil products, ruin schedules, impact earnings and compromise safety.
While process automation solutions do much to accelerate, optimize and protect manufacturing processes, the software itself has to be protected from downtime or loss. And Marathon has just the high availability software technology, with real-time validation and automation creating a resilient environment for critical applications. In heavily regulated industries like the food and pharmaceutical industries, it proactively prevents data loss that would threaten compliance.
Albian Sands Energy: Energy Production
At full production, the Muskeg River Mine in Alberta Canada produces up to 155,000 barrels per day of bitumen from its oil sands mining operation. Albian Sands Energy uses Rockwell Automation software to manage the processing facility at this mine as safely and efficiently as possible. And everRun® high availability software from Marathon Technologies protects this complex production environment from downtime, even if an entire server fails. Read the Albian Sands Energy story.
Rich Products Finds a Sweet Solution to Downtime Risk
Dessert never ends at Rich Products, which produces whipped toppings, puddings, and other products around the clock at its Tennessee processing facility. If the historian application fails in its data collection during manufacturing, the FDA requires the company to shut down production and discard product. Since the company installed everRun high availability software, Rich Products' historian software has operated without downtime or losing a single byte of data. Read the Rich Products case study.
