Ignition 8 Platform

Web-based, Cross-platform, Mobile access, Unlimited licenses, Real-time control, Secure and stable, Easy to integrate, Scalable.

Description

Ignition 8 is a software solution that integrates Scada–HMI (control, supervision, data acquisition and visualization), MOM (Manufacturing Operations Management) and IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) functionality in a single environment. Successfully used in tens of thousands of applications implemented in over 100 countries in the most diverse industrial sectors (Automotive, Food,

Bottling, Consumer Goods, Steel Mills, Environment and Territory, etc.), the Ignition software platform has been chosen by the largest companies in the world, including 46 of the Fortune 100: Coca Cola, Walt Disney, FCA, Morgan Stanley, Shell, Goodyear and many more.

Based on the most performing database access technologies, Ignition 8 allows you to respond to the growing needs for data collection, real-time analysis and integration with IT systems coming from the world of industrial automation, and to fully implement the principles of Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things.

The new and revolutionary release 8.1 has been expanded with numerous new features, which have increased its levels of flexibility and scalability, as well as a higher level of security and complete openness towards the mobile world.

The Perspective module for the 'mobile' world

lgnition Perspective is the biggest new feature in lgnition 8: specifically optimized for mobile devices, it allows you to create the next generation of responsive web applications for the industrial world. It is a completely new module, designed to enable the creation of responsive mobile applications, running natively on any handheld device or web browser.

Perspective is fully compatible with HTML5 and CSS3, allows you to exploit the full power of the device's touch inputs and, if used via the Mobile App, also allows direct access to the integrated sensors (GPS, video camera, accelerometer, etc.).

With lgnition Perspective you can easily design complex page layouts that automatically adapt to different screen sizes, all in a single design environment: lgnition Designer.
