Many feed mills, grain storage facilities, and pet food plants are big in size and small on staff. Making bin inventory management available anywhere anytime enables people to be more efficient in their jobs. Today, a simple log into a website using an app or Software as a Service program puts real-time data in front of people who need it to make timely decisions. Improvements in processing efficiency, ordering, and delivery schedules, eliminating material shortages, and reducing carrying costs are just a few of the benefits of monitoring bin levels while on-site or off-premises. Automated alerts via text or email allow for proactive actions that can add to a mill’s bottom line.
Worldwide, vegetable oil production includes 25 varieties of vegetable oils, oilseed and fats. In fact, Ukraine is the No. 1 producer of sunflower oil followed by Russia, according to the International Association of Vegetable Oils. Proper storage of beans and seeds is important to optimize the quality of the finished products. The practice of properly filling and emptying bins ensures equilibrium moisture content and relative humidity are maintained. BinMaster sensors and software can provide a measurement of bulk materials in a silo to accommodate those operating these silos.
The only sensor to measure and map the material surface, BinMaster’s 3DLevelScanner sends pulses in a 70° beam angle, taking multiple level measurements and accounting for uneven surface topography in bins, tanks, and silos when calculating volume. Each sensor comes with 3DVision software that reports the lowest and highest points detected and the average level based upon a weighted average of all measurements in the bin.
The flow of powders and small granules through a system can be difficult to detect because of problems with the adhesion and cohesion of the material. Particle size, roughness, and other aspects of the material leave operators wondering if the material is, indeed, flowing well. Powders are prevalent in everything from cement to feed manufacturing, and both closely watch the formulation of ingredients from multiple bins and silos. Flow or no-flow indicators can help.
The Baking Industry knows that every pound of ingredient counts towards the bottom line. Changing production lines cannot take long. Cleanups and start-ups all pull production from the bottom line. Product shortages cannot be tolerated and BinMaster 3DLevelScanner can continuously monitor ingredient inventory in silos so managers aren't caught off guard. Inventory levels can be sent to a cloud report to maximize ordering and ingredient reloading practices.
Food, consumer products, packaging…nearly everything…involves the use of bulk solids at some point during their manufacture. In the retail world, inventory record accuracy costs an average of 1.75% loss of revenue. Their suppliers also suffer up to 0.73% loss of revenue. In a world of Industry 4.0...
In the face of soaring inflation, intense competition, and supply chain challenges, industries are turning to technology solutions, particularly Industry 4.0 goals, to stay competitive. McKinsey & Company’s study highlights the cement industry’s need for digitization, sustainability, and...
