3 Global Technical Services No matter where in the world you need technical, service and parts support, you can count on the Rockwell Automation Global Technical Service (GTS) team. With over 500 service locations in 70 countries around the globe, there s one close by to ensure your company receives maximum value from its investment. Commissioning Service Before your equipment is installed, ask a Rockwell Automation Support Engineer to work with your personnel and contractors for a successful installation and start-up. As equipment is installed and start-up begins, your service engineer will be there every step of the way to oversee electrical installation and supervise software configuration. Personnel Training Professional instructors and service engineers are also available to train your personnel in the operation, troubleshooting and maintenance of your process line system. It s hands-on training to help you achieve maximum throughput, speed change-overs and minimize downtime. Troubleshooting Support From start-up and for decades to come, comprehensive troubleshooting support is available to keep quality and productivity high. While Support Engineers are available for on-site assistance, telephone support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For fast troubleshooting of your AutoMax controller, ask about our RUSH Service to diagnose and correct software problems by modem. Spare Parts Inventory To ensure that the spare parts you need are in inventory when you need them, ask for a comprehensive spare parts inventory evaluation. Electronic Repair When an Allen-Bradley or Reliance electronic component needs service, there s no better choice than to have it remanufactured by Rockwell Automation. RepairPlus service is also available for the repair of your company s various brands of electronic components. Rotating Services For motor, speed reducer, generator and other rotating equipment service and repairs, your nearby Service Center offers total support. In addition, many of these centers offer a variety of mechanical repair and machining services to provide you with comprehensive support from a single source.

4 A System Designed Especially for Process Lines Rockwell Automation has a complete selection of performance-matched hardware and software to meet the specific Operator Interface and Process Monitoring Product change-overs are made fast, easily and accurately through the use of closely-coupled Operator Interface and Process Monitoring software. Designed specifically for drive systems applications, this software combines supervisory control, information management and data acquisition into a single comprehensive package. Process Overview and Run Permissives are displayed with real-time information. needs of your process line. From rugged industrial motors, high-performance AC, DC and servo drives, system controllers and software to motor control centers, gear drives, operator interfaces and more your Rockwell Automation Metals Industry Specialist has the resources to optimize the performance of your process line. Detailed Drive and Process Diagnostics assist in troubleshooting and reduce downtime.

5 Ease-of-Operation, Precise Control Intuitive operator screens, especially developed for use in process lines, make data entry, push-button and metering functions simple. Simplicity that enhances the operator s ability to accurately control the process. Automated Maintenance Easy-to-understand maintenance and troubleshooting tools immediately notify operators of fault and alarm conditions. These tools let operators assist in performing maintenance tasks to keep downtime costs to an absolute minimum. Cost-Effective A library of standard, configurable, and example screens allow Rockwell Automation Drive Systems to produce a cost-effective, robust operator interface system. System Controllers These advanced devices provide precise drive control coordination and reliable logic processing. They also assure consistent presentation of real-time data to the Operator Interface system. An experienced Rockwell Automation Metals Industry Specialist can recommend the proper system controller hardware to meet your company s needs. AC and DC Drives A wide selection of variable-speed drives are available to choose from to meet your line s specific driven load requirements. Data is passed between drives and the System Controller using high-speed communications links. Welds are Precisely Tracked in the control system and displayed on the weld tracking screen. The current status of running parameters, and the recipe and coil numbers can be monitored for each coil in the line. Raw data is analyzed to help you identify Equipment Performance Trends and take the appropriate action. Product is accurately Tracked and process data is logged with the Operator Interface system. Entry, process and exit section control parameters can also be accessed through these screens. Control and status of Auxiliary Equipment is accessed through the Operator Interface system, with data fed from the System Controller.
