Information
Our product, the RMS Library, is designed to handle all high availability tasks, including
- Monitoring of redundancy neighbour availability
- Cyclic exchange of redundancy data
- Failure monitoring of automation technology components
- Switchover to the redundancy neighbour in the event of component failure
- Automatic synchronization with the redundancy neighbour when restarting the failed system
- Interfacing with CoDeSys and C++ programs.
- The interface allows users to provide highly available solutions from single-channel solutions.
- Furthermore, our redundancy management software is portable to different hardware platforms, offering flexibility and ease of use.
Profile
GEFAZ mbH is currently developing a highly available software solution to prevent production downtimes in semiconductor manufacturing. To achieve this, we use hardware modules from a leading German automation technology manufacturer. By doubling the data bus and automation components, we ensure high availability which in turn
- prevents or limits damage,
- eliminates hazardous substances
- and protects against consequential damage due to contamination.
Technology
Software development is our core competence. We develop software for Linux and Windows operating systems. We have comprehensive expertise in
- automation technology and
- medical technology.
Currently, we are developing a redundancy management software (RMS) library for a German semiconductor manufacturer, which is our pilot customer. By using our RMS library in combination with a higher-ranking control program, hazardous situations and conditions in the plant can be redundantly detected, enabling the avoidance of production downtimes to a substantial extent.
