Building What's Next in Mining and Mineral Processing: Rapid Response SCADA on a Chrome Wash Plant

Advansys built a SCADA system for EyeSense Processing’s chrome wash plant on their own standardised Ignition framework, built on Ignition Perspective, and designed to be reused across plant types. During commissioning, an unstaffed control room turned motors, water balance, and level-control adjustment into a delay. What we’ll cover: – How a modular, standardised Ignition framework enabled a fast pivot to mobile without reworking the core architecture – The commissioning bottlenecks that drove the decision: control room dependency, limited operator access, and communication delays – Technical challenges in taking control-room faceplates mobile: network coverage, battery life, interface redesign – Operational outcomes: decentralised control, faster response to process changes, faster commissioning – Why building on a proper standard, not a one-off build, is what made this kind of rapid adaptation possible Who should watch: Engineers evaluating how a standardised Ignition architecture performs under real commissioning pressure, and decision-makers assessing what a reusable framework saves in time, cost, and delivery risk.
