FoodSense

 

Our first monitoring product FoodSense dramatically increases plant and manufacturing efficiency within the food & drinks industry.

​

The system is comprised of three components:

​

  1. Self-contained, zero-footprint, low energy sensor and electronic circuitry integrated in to a single compact, process-certified unit. There is no need for additional test or display equipment.

  2. Advanced process monitoring software for automatic food product identification. There is no need for a qualified instrumentation engineer.

  3. A sensor-to-manufacturing facility interface for process control and automation, allowing plug-and-play connection to the rest of your plant.

 

FoodSense applications

 

Deployment of FoodSense units for real-time monitoring within these five plant areas provides the greatest efficiencies:

​

  1. Product Composition

  2. Clean In Place (CIP)

  3. Waste Reduction

  4. Control of Effluents

  5. Plant Process Monitoring

 

Advantages

 

  • Designed specifically for the Food & Drink industry.

  • Installed inline to allow manufacturers to monitor their product quality in real-time, for the first time.

  • Measures the bulk properties of materials passing, not just the surface, unlike Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and FT-NIR (Near Infrared) technologies offered by competitors.

  • Unaffected by the presence of vapours, which is a serious reliability concern for FTIR and NIR technologies.

  • A non-hazardous and safe system

  • Completely non-intrusive sensor technology that does not interfere with or alter the flow of products being measured in any way.

  • Can be retrofitted quickly and easily to existing process lines.

  • European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group compliant and fully compatible with Clean In Place (CIP).

  • Completely tailored to individual customer and plant requirements, and calibrated by our support team to the unique signatures of your product via embedded intelligence.

  • Our subscription model offers local service support, alleviating the need for skilled instrumentation engineers to be employed by
    the company.

  • The ROI on the system is in terms of months, depending on the percentage of savings achieved.

 

Environmental benefit

​

By reducing the consumption of power and water through improving efficiency, FoodSense can substantially reduce a company’s carbon footprint. Not only does intelligent automation represent energy savings, it presents an opportunity for net renewable generation contributions.
