1 Integrating Inspection Instrumentation, IIoT and Cloud Computing to Maximize Efficiency and Productivity Dianne Hillhouse Business Develop Manager Oil/Gas/Chemical Olympus Scientific Solutions Americas Houston, Texas

2 Overview The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Cloud Computing Cloud Objectives from An Instrumentation Manufacturer s Perspective NDT Users Why Partner with A Cloud/IoT Committed Supplier? Real World Cloud/IIoT Workflow Projects Which Cloud Platform? Cloud Computing Challenges Conclusion

3 The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Cloud Computing

4 Why Should An Instrumentation/Sensor Manufacturer Pursue Cloud Development?

5 Why Should An Instrumentation/Sensor Manufacturer Pursue Cloud Development?

6 What Does A Manufacturer Gain? Factory Process Control and Optimization Recognize and resolve potential configuration and/or quality issues quickly Improve efficiency and lead times Remote Support Capabilities Remote View / Control: Allow technical support to view the device and/or control a process remotely Device health: Device captures and sends health data such as temperature, location, damage, etc... Insights from Big Data Store selected data produced by device over life cycle Analyze data from multiple sources in real time Uncover real time insights from streaming data and events Use this information to learn about & improve process capabilities

7 NDT Customers Why Partner with Suppliers Committed to Cloud/IIoT Development? Clients Expectations Asset owners Manufacturing/Fabrication Clients Manage Workflow, Increase Productivity Push job criteria (files, set-up, etc.) real time to in-field instruments Real-time, remote data access Collaborate with user and instrument in the field Faster decision making Equipment Fleet Management Reduce Cost of Ownership, increase instrumentation life Real-time instrument/sensor predictive health analysis Real-time location tracking, usage statistics Real-time remote support and technical service

8 Olympus Scientific Cloud Project Client: Specialty Steel Mill Produces Variety of Tube/Bar Products Objective: Real time decisions based on PMI data acquisition at last point prior to shipment Alloy grades overlap and shipments are linked to barcodes. Barcode criteria can change daily Inspectors will have no knowledge of metallurgy or alloys they are verifying Short test times and reaction is essential Automated way to address a non-compliant shipment

9 Olympus Scientific Cloud Project Client: Inspection Service Provider to a Refinery Rope Access PMI, UT Objective: Real time access to PMI data, effective fleet management Monitor/QC data results Collaborate with inspectors Decrease time from data acquisition to report generation for refinery client Consistent and/or custom instrument parameters on fleet

16 Archiving and access to Certificates of Conformance

17 Request access and start to work collaboratively

18 Microsoft s Global Footprint Delivering Global Connectivity

19 Microsoft s Global Footprint

20 Microsoft s Commitment to Security

21 NDTMA 2018 Annual Conference Microsoft s Commitment to Security

22 Cloud Computing Challenges Customers WiFi Network Connectivity Network Connection on the Instrumentation Encouraging Clients to Register with Olympus Cloud Security Concerns Understanding customer business objectives What features should be complimentary vs. paid Resources for Internal Cloud Development Legacy Products Connectivity

23 Innovation & Reactivity to Customer Needs Dedicated development team Established a dedicated team of developers and product specialists focused on Cloud development across product lines Produced a single unified platform supporting Olympus Industrial products Applying Agile methods for rapid development and deployment Roadmap: Prioritize development effort according to customer feedback Keep development timelines short and maintain capacity for feature requests for rapid deployment Build closer relationships with customers pursuing Cloud solutions with Olympus instrumentation

24 Olympus Scientific Cloud Complimentary Basic Feature Set

25 Current & Future Plans: Hardware Expansion of the Olympus Scientific Cloud to the full range of Olympus Industrial products All new instruments from Olympus Scientific Solutions will be Cloud Connected Cloud Gateways Accessory devices that enable Device Control Internet Connectivity Existing instruments currently targeted include: 38DL Plus EPOCH 600/650 Portable Flaw Detectors OmniScan PAUT Products

26 Current & Future Plans: Cloud Features More advanced report generation to enhance delivery to customers Place data in your remote servers or systems (API Access) Advanced analysis and presentations to get the best view of your information Data trending analysis Predictive maintenance to maximize uptime Calibration scheduling to help ensure all your calibrations are up to date Enhanced data management through Olympus and/or third party collaboration blending local instrumentation/sensor data with historical data to drive action

27 Conclusion Know your NDT business objectives and make it clear to your NDT instrumentation partner Partner with a company who understands your reasons for a public or private cloud solution and can offer both Feel confident that your instrumentation partner has the resources and commitment to keep up with current and future security protocols and requirements Partner with a company that offers a scalable cloud solution that will allow you to harness and use NDT data timely and effectively
