Jova Solutions's Software Services team specializes in software for networked process control, production automation, and data management. We design and deliver software that facilitates consistent production runs for companies requiring reliability and accuracy in technical processes. Our applications range from small channel count, laboratory scale applications for biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, to large-scale measurement and automation systems for electronics and medical equipment manufacturing.
Our process control services team provides:
- Requirements analysis
- Application planning, design and implementation
- Integration of software and hardware components
- Network integration
- Enterprise application integration
- Web integration
- Ongoing support
Our software engineers design and develop process control systems for a broad range of scientific and manufacturing environments. We have years of experience in the laboratory and on the factory floor, developing software applications for major engineering and technical companies and scientific organizations.
Our custom software expertise includes:
- Motion control and robotics
- Process design and optimization
- Machine vision systems
- Data management
- High throughput processing
- Large channel count and high-speed applications
- Networked and distributed systems
- Scientific research and development
- Manufacturing
Our software systems optimize production quality and efficiency in manufacturing through simplified access to vital information, reduced disruptions, and improved response time. Our software interfaces with new or pre-existing manufacturing/processing systems or enterprise systems. We offer rapid deployment and smooth integration. Our modular and highly configurable systems scale from research and development labs to pilot plant and manufacturing operations.
Benefits of our software include:
- Increase yield by reducing waste and limiting manual operations
- Enterprise wide data reporting and management
- Integrate data from diverse sources into a unified software interface
- Operators can quickly determine equipment and product status
- integration of legacy and enterprise systems
Our process control software can combine high-channel count data acquisition, complex instrument communications, real-time data analysis, SCADA/HMI interfaces, motion control, machine vision, and web interfaces for remote management over networks or the internet. Our software can log historical data and alert personnel in alarm conditions. We can ensure the safe execution of shutdown procedures in the absence of monitoring personnel and automatically update a facility's instrumentation with live process data. Our software can control all testing, data analysis and data archiving operations.
Our software can exceed simple Pass/Fail testing to offer in depth qualitative and quantitative data that can be used for detailed SPC analysis; enabling our customers to continually optimize their manufacturing processes.
Our software solutions can be fully integrated with industry-standard networks, communication protocols and databases. Our web and wireless interfaces allow users to control or change system settings remotely, and to monitor and control current processes in real time.
Examples process control and manufacturing system functionality include:
- Automation of production/process equipment
- Sensors and signal processing
- Machine vision and automated inspection systems
- Specialized recipe management
- Batch processing and control
