SCADA system monitoring & control

eMaint CMMS integrates seamlessly with Ignition SCADA, giving maintenance & reliability access to siloed production data that’s always been there – but just out of reach.

Your team taps into a wealth of data from industrial sensors across the plant, empowering them to…

  • Boost uptime with automated work orders triggered by asset data alarms
  • See machine failures coming and perform predictive maintenance
  • Access meter and utilization data
  • Reduce time spent on manual data collection with automated measurements
  • Strengthen overall reliability and drive production

Gaining access to Ignition SCADA data is also just the beginning: eMaint leads the maintenance software industry with its broad range of simple CMMS integrations, from API connections to SCADA/PLC systems.

What is Ignition SCADA?

Ignition is a popular web-based SCADA software and platform for industrial monitoring, supervision, and data acquisition. A SCADA system as well as a development platform, Ignition is a powerful tool for production and operations teams.

But maintenance and reliability teams may not have easy access to the treasure-trove of asset data Ignition provides – and if they do, their SCADA and CMMS software are siloed, requiring separate sign-ins.

That’s where eMaint CMMS comes in.

Why eMaint Leads the Industry in SCADA Integration

eMaint, a CMMS software, is designed to simplify key CMMS connections like SCADA integration.

Our team is experienced in building seamless workflows and enabling condition-based maintenance.

Most CMMS and EAM software only offer limited integration, giving you only a trickle of data from specific brands of sensors. eMaint connects to nearly any SCADA or PLC system, giving you access to the full flood of production monitoring insights.

eMaint + Ignition Integration Capabilities

Here’s how eMaint CMMS integrates with Ignition SCADA.

Reduce Time Spent on Manual Data Collection with Automated Measurements

eMaint SCADA integration allows you to capture the automatic measurements from SCADA and PLC systems and send them to your CMMS. Your team can automate measurements and usage calculations like temperature, pressure, flow rate, utilization, and uptime. Maintenance tech labor can be devoted towards essential tasks. Automated measurements from SCADA also reduce the risk of over-maintenance: corrective or repair work can often lead to new problems due to human error.

See Machine Failures Coming and Perform Predictive Maintenance by Sending Ignition Alarms to Maintenance & Reliability

You can harness the power of Ignition alarms to notify maintenance and reliability teams with eMaint, empowering them to perform predictive maintenance. Connecting your MRO team to Ignition’s condition-based alarms establishes a quick notification system for when assets vibrate, overheat, run for too long, and a host of other SCADA datapoints. Maintenance teams are in touch with asset health and notified right away when critical events occur. You can also establish your own alarms in eMaint to trigger based on SCADA or PLC data. Equipped with a wealth of data and a quick notification system, maintenance teams can predict failures and perform maintenance on the right asset, at the right time to prevent them.

Boost Uptime with Automated, Condition-Based Work Orders

eMaint gives teams the ability to automate condition based-workers. You can set work orders to trigger based on condition data from your Ignition SCADA integration, making sure your team catches failures before they happen. eMaint’s automated work orders enable condition-based maintenance, where maintenance work is optimized based on condition data. Condition-based maintenance minimizes maintenance labor and costs while ensuring work is performed right when it’s needed. Once you can tap into SCADA data, predictive maintenance is also possible – discovering and correcting faults before they occur.

Simplify Reporting & Gain Powerful Data Insights with eMaint’s Condition Monitoring Dashboards

Once eMaint and Ignition are connected, you can use eMaint to quickly build reports and dashboards: you gain a consolidated view of your equipment, empowering you to make actionable recommendations and improve efficiency. eMaint’s condition monitoring dashboards can trend condition data over time, give you a historical overview of measurements and alarms, and show associated condition-based work orders. Production data used primarily for real-time monitoring can be visualized, analyzed, and mined for reliability strategy.

Top Reasons Why Maintenance & Reliability Teams Love eMaint + Ignition Integration

  1. eMaint Integration is Simple
    Connecting eMaint to Ignition is effortless. You can trust in eMaint’s years of SCADA integration experience to streamline the implementation process and get essential asset data at your MRO team’s fingertips.
  2. eMaint Connects to Almost Any SCADA or PLC System
    Have a smorgasbord of different SCADA, BMS, PLC, and RTU technologies? eMaint can connect to them all – setting eMaint’s SCADA integration apart from the competitors. Many CMMS and EAM software talk about SCADA integration, but limit your integration to their sensors, or don’t allow you to connect to all of your sensors and hardware. eMaint’s SCADA integration is compatible with a broad range of industrial monitoring technologies.
  3. eMaint Meets You Where You Are
    Regardless of where your team is on their reliability journey – from just beginning to access SCADA data, to advanced alarms and automated work orders, eMaint will configure a setup to your needs.
  4. eMaint is a Command Center for Maintenance & Reliability
    eMaint maintenance, asset, and inventory data are invaluable for completing the portrait of industrial machine health that SCADA data begins to paint. eMaint reports and dashboards reveal the big picture – the trends in your maintenance work and asset lifecycles, and how to optimize reliability strategy to boost your KPIs.
