Featured Projects
01
Grains & Feed Milling
Fully automated feed mill producing feed for over 25 000 pigs on a daily basis. This project contains manual intervention control of machines for redundancy. It is a fully automated control system with product traceability, job scheduling and product movement reporting even when run in manual mode. The interface to an ERP system consolidates all information to make informative decisions. Custom reporting and notifications are added as an extra layer of confidence.
02
Machine Building & Interfaced Solutions
With ever evolving customers we have the dynamics to adapt from the smallest of projects with the aim of future expansion, keeping solutions modular in design and leaving room for addition at the lowest cost. We interface to 3rd party systems and scales seamlessly by building custom solutions as and when you need them.
03
Grain Handling and Inventory Management
Our grain management system allows us to develop one of the most advanced grain intake and handling systems in Africa with built-in intelligence, alerting and reporting. We leave no stone unturned when it comes to managing and accounting for throughput traceability and product management.
04
Cloud Compute
Complete line of sight with our usage of AWS, we report in near real-time (1,5sec latency) on production metrics. This solution offers insight to the factory floor on a range of different devices and can be seen from anywhere at any time as long as there is an active internet connection. Added in is the functionality of alarm notifications and dynamic reporting with sleek visualization widgets. Fully customizable designs to fit your corporate theme.
