Ignition SCADA

About Ignition SCADA by Inductive Automation

In today’s marketplace, it is crucial for industrial organizations to be dynamic, to innovate and to continuously monitor the quality of their production processes. Factory Automation & Control (A&C) solutions can enable this via the automation of entire manufacturing facilities and workflows. Within the industrial automation toolset are Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, or SCADA, systems. SCADA systems are software solutions designed to connect physical assets to digital databases, process and manage large volumes of operational data, and allow users to monitor asset performance and control processes.

Engineering Industries eXcellence partners with Inductive Automation to deliver innovative SCADA solutions for today’s modern manufacturing needs. Inductive Automation’s Ignition SCADA platform combines an unlimited licensing model with instant web-based deployment, as well as an industry-leading toolset for supervisory control and data acquisition – all on one open and scalable universal platform. Ignition SCADA is The New SCADA because it solves all the major pain points of old SCADA. Ignition SCADA empowers your business to easily control processes, and track, display and analyze all critical data, without limits:
