Driving Higher Profitability in a Changing Global Economy

A new level of flexibility, efficiency, and ease-of-use in
building, deploying, and managing APC applications.

Overview

aspenONE APC delivers unrivaled benefits by integrating all of the tools and features required for building, testing, deploying and managing APC applications into one centralized platform. The results are improved quality, reduced energy consumption, increased throughput, higher yields of products, and a lower cost of ownership.

"To be able to do multiple types of controllers in the same software platform is quite amazing."   — Arkema

aspenONE APC is unique in that it also provides a range of control formulations; users can choose from three control model types in a single package. Along with choices in control formulations, aspenONE APC provides a complete set of features for loop and controller monitoring, process and product performance management, and
sustained value.

aspenONE APC is delivered via the Aspen Control Platform (ACP). The platform provides the ability to build, connect, deploy, and manage APC applications from a single integrated environment. With aspenONE APC, you can:

• Easily convert from one control formulation to another
• Collect and archive continuous, batch, and metadata in one place
• Predict, control, sequence, and optimize models
• Connect models to various data sources
• Monitor and track changes during deployment

Greater Flexibility

aspenONE APC provides technical and commercial scalability along with more flexibility in the construction and management of control systems. Many companies today find themselves faced with a broader range of control problems spanning simple linear to non-linear with complex dynamics. They are also seeking the ability to implement advanced control on units that were previously infeasible due to economic barriers.

aspenONE APC provides a unified environment for AspenTech's three industry-leading control formulations, offering superior control performance, execution efficiency, and exceptional constraint handling to maximize asset utilization. A combination of linear and nonlinear control capability is available.

You can easily convert from one model type to another, and thus switch control technologies. Aspen Process Controller will automatically convert both the model and the controller configuration and tuning. No need to manually convert or rebuild the controller from scratch.

Rapid Deployment

The built-in workflow of the ACP guides you through the process of building, testing, and deploying controllers and related applications. You can manage your servers, applications, and data collection with one program.

• Deploy applications from your development environment
• Track changes during re-deployment
• Get controller and history snapshots directly into your workspace
