Experion Batch provides operators with improved visibility, simplified maintenance and faster validation.

Honeywell Process Solutions (HPS) introduced a control technology solution that increases productivity for batch operations and speed-to-market of batch products by allowing operators to “look ahead” into their processes and see an intuitive and comprehensive timeline of every task required to complete a product batch.

Honeywell’s Experion Batch, uses patent-pending visualisation technology to provide batch automation processes with the benefits of distributed control capability. This approach provides operators with insights into upcoming events or potential delays, which make it easier for them to conduct multiple tasks, take appropriate actions sooner and adjust next steps accordingly. It also makes operations less critically dependent on individual operator experience, which will help manufacturers overcome skill gaps at a time when more veteran operators are retiring.

“Many operators currently say they don’t have enough visibility into their batch processes,” said Matthias Maaz, HPS director of pharma and specialty chemicals. “Not knowing what tasks are coming when or being unable to foresee delays can lead to reduced production. Experion Batch solves this issue and allows operators to do more with less.”
