Yokogawa Electric launches the tenth generation CENTUM VP control system, leading a new era of industrial autonomy

Yokogawa Electric launches the tenth generation CENTUM VP control system, leading a new era of industrial autonomy Jul 04, 2025
Challenges of the new era: new demands for industrial automation
At a time when the global supply chain is accelerating its reshaping and environmental protection policies are becoming increasingly stringent, manufacturing companies are facing unprecedented challenges. From cloud computing to the continuous expansion of renewable energy management, the widespread application of digitalization has brought higher information security requirements. At the same time, the gradual reduction of skilled operators and the increase in 24-hour operation and maintenance pressure have also put forward higher requirements for the stability and intelligence of the system. Against this background, Yokogawa Electric has taken advantage of the trend and launched a new generation of CENTUM™ VP R7.01 integrated control system, fully entering a new era of industrial autonomy (IA2IA).

CENTUM VP R7: A future blueprint with autonomous operation as the core
CENTUM VP R7 is not only a simple version iteration, but also a leap in concept. The new version takes "realizing factory autonomous operation" as its core goal and is committed to helping companies build a safer, more efficient and environmentally friendly intelligent operation model. Focusing on the three major directions of "expanding the monitoring scope", "predictive maintenance" and "reducing the burden on operators", Yokogawa Electric provides customers with new future-oriented solutions to help achieve sustainable development strategies.

New features of R7.01: AI empowerment, comprehensively improving system capabilities
In order to truly achieve intelligent autonomous operation, the R7.01 version has made many innovations in security, interoperability and engineering efficiency:
Strengthening network security: Adopting industry-leading security benchmarks, comprehensively strengthening the protection capabilities of system components, and ensuring the security and stability of critical infrastructure.
Supporting OPC UA communication standards: Realizing data interoperability with more manufacturers' equipment, expanding the coverage of control and monitoring, and laying the foundation for smart factories.
Improving engineering capabilities: Introducing multi-database merging and testing functions to accelerate the deployment of large projects and improve engineering efficiency and quality.

Promoting industry innovation: Breakthrough in autonomous control AI
Yokogawa Electric has innovatively introduced autonomous control AI based on reinforcement learning, which can achieve adaptive control under complex working conditions. This AI system can not only simulate the response strategies of senior operators, but also make autonomous optimization decisions in unknown situations. The system has been deployed and operated in actual chemical plants and has been highly recognized by the Prime Minister's Award of the "Japan Industrial Technology Award". Through the empowerment of AI technology, enterprises can make substantial breakthroughs in reducing energy consumption, improving safety and reducing human dependence.

Widely applicable: covering a variety of process industry scenarios
The new generation of CENTUM VP is widely used in process industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, steel, electricity, papermaking and water treatment. It has demonstrated strong adaptability and application value in key links such as factory automation, remote operation and maintenance, and predictive maintenance, providing a solid guarantee for building a sustainable and highly reliable industrial system.

Conclusion: Leading the future and building a sustainable industrial society

In this VUCA era full of uncertainty, companies can only move forward steadily through technological innovation and system upgrades. The CENTUM VP R7 launched by Yokogawa Electric is not only an innovation in the control system, but also a profound response to the future industrial development model. By creating a more autonomous, smarter and more reliable production system, Yokogawa is leading global manufacturing companies into a new era of industrial autonomy.
