MAN ES unveils new digital platform, MAN CEON

The upgraded platform will allow MAN Energy Solutions to upgrade its existing PrimeServ offerings, as the digital platform uses intelligent analysis tools to permit real-time data analysis combining operating and sensor data.

The new digital platform then uses intelligent analysis tools for evaluation and forecasting. The platform is scalable, and can monitor thousands of customer installations in parallel, while the upgraded platform will permit monitoring of small subcomponents, with high-resolution data available on demand.

“MAN CEON is the new backbone of our developing digital-service business,” said Per Hansson, Head of Digital and Strategy at MAN Energy Solutions. “All of our machines, whether engines or turbomachinery, are equipped with hundreds of sensors that transmit data constantly. MAN CEON enables the efficient collection, storage and evaluation of these data volumes. To do this, we employ state-of-the-art, cloud-based technology and algorithms that automatically identify and report problems. And of course the platform meets the requirements for end-to-end security.”

After connecting their installation to MAN CEON customers can access the platform via a web application on their PC, or by using a mobile terminal; data is sent and processed continuously. Encrypted data transmission and a multi-level authorization procedure during login ensure maximum data security.

Hansson concluded: “With MAN CEON, we can provide our customers with even better support during their daily work and optimize the availability and efficiency of installations, regardless of whether it is a ship on the high seas, a power plant, an industrial application, or even an oil platform. We can instantly respond to unusual operating-data and quickly offer customized solutions and services.”
