Challenge	Hydrovision Ltd., a leading manufacturer of Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), required a new scalable control system for their ROVs, sub-sea tooling, and other custom tooling applications. The specifications demanded a PC-based system running under a Windows operating system and meeting open standards like OPC. The system needed to be scalable, maintainable, easy to modify after implementation, and economical. The company also wanted a system that would allow their customers to make their own modifications to the machines for different tooling or use applications. Read More
About Customer	Hydrovision Ltd. is a world leader in the manufacturing of Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). The company is based in the UK and specializes in the design and manufacturing of sub-sea robotic systems. These systems are used in various industries including Underwater Salvage, Cable Laying, and Offshore Oil drilling. The systems need to meet extremely demanding standards of performance, control, and endurance. Hydrovision is a private limited company. Read More
Solution	Hydrovision Ltd. selected ICONICS GENESIS™32 Software suite of SCADA and OPC products to meet their requirements. The GENESIS32 software suite of applications operate seamlessly together, communicating solely via an OPC server which allows easy interface to any industry standard hardware and software systems. The software also has an intuitive development environment, which allows for speedy development and re-engineering by both experienced and new SCADA Engineers. ICONICS GENESIS32’s GraphWorX32 software was used to create the Operator Interface HMI screen using multiple touch screen control panels for control of the ROV machine with a single main display to continuously present the system data.
