Access Solutions, S3Edge and XERAFY Showcase A Fully Automated FME Center at 2010 Power-Gen International Conference
The RFID Automated FME Solution demonstrates how real-time information can increase plant efficiencies in asset management by improving accountability, tool utilization, and productivity.
December 15, 2010, Hong Kong – Access Solutions, a provider of enterprise foreign material exclusion (FME) management systems, S3Edge, a leading provider of packaged real-time visibility and control solutions and XERAFY, a global provider of RFID tags, are displaying a fully self-contained FME center at the 2010 Power-Gen International conference. Access Solutions, known for providing the energy industry with the first RFID control system for automating FME processes, exhibits ‘The Cube®’. The Cube shows how real-time information and automation of the FME procedures can improve productivity, reduce tool loss and enhance plant safety.
“Our latest innovation, ‘The Cube’ contains everything needed to run an efficient FME project in the most rugged environments,” says Kelvin Mann, CEO of Access Solutions. “This unique FME center raises the bar on FME accountability by Auto-ID enabling management of tools, materials and personnel for the power generation industry while enforcing FME policies and identifying exceptions, as they occur in real-time.”
“Leveraging the highly scalable S3Edge Spotlight software solution, ‘The Cube‘ is more than ready to take on the challenging environments where FME is deployed, said Mark Anastas, President of S3Edge. “This game-changing FME system enables users to increase productivity while simultaneously improving accountability”.
“The development of specialized RFID on and in metal technology has significantly affected maintenance methodologies by enabling power generators to track tools and assets with real-time visibility in foreign material exclusion zones,” explains Dennis Khoo, CEO of XERAFY. “Passive UHF RFID provides a low cost, highly reliable device to reduce the human element from the prevention and detection.”
Access Solutions and XERAFY will exhibit at the 2010 Power-Gen International Conference in Orlando, Florida from December 14 to 16 to more than 1,200 companies from all sectors of the power industry and more than 18,000 attendees.
