关于客户
The Hong Kong Marine Department is responsible for monitoring and regulating all ship movements within Hong Kong waters. The department oversees over a thousand ships that enter or leave the port of Hong Kong daily. The volume of traffic that transits Hong Kong waters to and from the ports at the Pearl River Delta is increasing annually. At any given time, there are over three hundred ships moored within the harbor. The department also oversees the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre, which is responsible for coordinating all search and rescue operations within the Hong Kong maritime rescue responsible area. This area covers the entire northern part of the South China Sea, up to the west coast of the Philippines on the east and up to the 10 degree Latitude on the south.
挑战
The Vessel Traffic Centre of Hong Kong Marine Department monitors and regulates all ship movements within Hong Kong waters. Over one thousand big and small ships enter into or sail from the port of Hong Kong daily. The volume of traffic that transits Hong Kong waters to and from the ports at the Pearl River Delta increases annually. At any one time, there are over three hundred ships moored within the harbor. The Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre, which is also under Hong Kong Marine Department, is responsible for coordinating all search and rescue operations within the Hong Kong maritime rescue responsible area, which is about the entire northern part of the South China Sea, up to the west coast of the Philippines on the east and up to the 10 degree Latitude on the south. The traffic monitoring equipment and the telecommunications equipment of both centers have recently been upgraded.
解决方案
The Hong Kong Marine Department selected ICONICS GENESIS32™ Web-enabled, OPC-integrated HMI/SCADA Software suite with AlarmWorX™32, TrendWorX™32, and GraphWorX™32 modules, along with WebHMI and OPC Server products. The complete turnkey solution that included microwave link, VHF communication equipment, radar Unit, RTU and ICONICS software, was installed by PCCW Ltd. The geography of Hong Kong required the installation of 18 remote sites spread over 7 islands. ICONICS GENESIS32 software enabled rapid development and easy deployment using its modular architecture, aliases, ActiveX controls and direct publishing feature of HTML pages over the Internet. The communication towers are built on the various remote islands and locations to collect data about the presence and movement of ships within Hong Kong waters. Communication with these remote sites is critical in terms of keeping the port safe.

Drill ship power challenge: hybrid solution solves distribution issues
Aspin Kemp & Associates (AKA), a manufacturer of electrical power and control systems headquartered in Montague, PEI, encountered one with its hybrid power initiative, the first hybrid drill floor destined for installation on ultra-deepwater drill ships operated by Transocean, Swiss offshore drilling contractors. Since on-site modification was impossible and scrap recycling of any modifications was unacceptable, the enclosures had to arrive ready-to-install.
Case Study
Ensures Tanker Safety and Emissions Compliance
Storage tanks are irregular in shape and a certain amount of mathematical modelling is required to get an accurate representation of volume and, more importantly, the weight of material in each tank. In addition, countries have different emission regulations, so the ships position needed to be accurately known in order to geotag emission data.

Mitsubishi Electric's Edge Computing Solution Powered by Wind River VxWorks
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a global leader in factory automation (FA) applications, identified edge computing as a critical component of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The company aimed to enhance device and data security, reduce data traffic to the cloud, and enable faster response to network or device issues. In 2018, Mitsubishi Electric launched its first line of industrial hardware products designed for edge computing, the MELIPC Series. The primary development goals for MELIPC were to support the type of edge computing promoted by Mitsubishi Electric and to introduce advanced vision technology for device control. The flagship computer of the MELIPC line, the MI5000, was designed to combine real-time equipment control with high-speed data collection, processing, diagnosis, and feedback in a single machine. However, the development team needed a real-time control platform that could seamlessly integrate real-time control with proven analytic and diagnostic applications.
