Robust Error Recovery for Simple to Complex Automated Systems

Rob Dunn-Dufault, Product Manager, Thermo Fisher Scientific


Productive Automation is largely a function of system processing speed and reliable walk away time. While the reliability of automated instruments individually contribute to a system’s uptime, error management strategies enabled by automation software can be just as important to make the overall system reliability greater than the sum of the parts. In this seminar we will look at some of the process design and error recovery options provided by Momentum™ automation software to enable increased uptime & fast recovery for overall robustness.
