Product history
The operator interfaces and connections to other systems like Historians were not that developed and therefore Novotek started the development of the MB300 OPC server for Masterbus300. The Masterbus 300 was originally developed by ABB, a global supplier in Pulp & Paper, Metals & Minerals, Power distribution and Power generation.
In the 1980’s, ABB developed the Masterpiece DCS controller that was a fully functional DCS system with all functions and features of such.
Over the years a lot of Masterpiece and its successor Advant Control have been installed all over the world and are still in operation today.
