Industrial Iot Solutions

It is most crucial for industries (smart industries) to monitor machines and processes in real time as well as guarantee optimal performance so as to improve production. Polimak industrial IoT solution – Politrace is an integrated IoT solution that combines process conditioning, machine health and inventory management, and computerised maintenance management technologies from a single source. Our strength is embedded in the collaboration of experts in software technology and the process industry to provide a single-source industrial IOT solution.

Industry 4.0 concepts and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are revolutionizing industrial processes. Connecting assets throughout the industrial value chain provides complete operational visibility to allow for real-time monitoring, analytics, decision making and improved levels of quality and efficiency. However running, operating and maintenance of each production line and industrial processing system necessitate deep expertise and knowledge based on long years of experience in the field. The mere connection of machinery to sophisticated software is not sufficient to comprehend the operations in the production line. It is also important to understand the physical meaning of the acquired data.

Predictive Quality

Predictive quality analytics helps obtain insights from data sources such as industrial equipment or systems and the enviroment. This feature utilises statistical algorithms like machine learning to predict future outcomes by simply determining trends and patterns. The objective of predictive quality is to determine needs that will improve the quality of the output in a factory. Decisions to improve products and processes at an early stage can be made with the help of predictive quality.

Predictive Maintenance

Predictive maintenance analytics are typically used to measure and ascertain the real-time state of industrial equipment and systems. This helps the managers or/and operators to identify possible malfunctions prior to their occurrence, thereby, preventing downtime. The user is able to plan maintenance activities and keep the right inventory to avoid unplanned outages. The use of Politrace predictive maintenance analytics in industries increases personnel safety, improves the life cycle of machines and optimizes the supply chain.

Condition Monitoring

Politrace enables users to continuously monitor and infer the performance, health and status of operating equipment and systems in industries. With condition monitoring, the state of various machines can be measured with sensors by inspecting temperatures, pressures, vibrations, vacuum levels, power consumption etc. With condition monitoring, the user can access data from various endpoints and monitor the health and performance of various machines within an operating facility.

Polimak Industrial IoT solution – Politrace has numerous application areas in industries. Politrace use cases include the following:

Silo Level Monitoring and Inventory System

Numerous industries utilise storage silos to store dry bulk materials. Maintaining these silos and inventory reserve vessels at optimal levels for efficient operations is of paramount importance. The maintenance of raw material reserves at levels that ensure optimal operations is very crucial because it helps industries cut out unnecessary additional storage or material runouts. With Politrace you are able to track the levels or weight of dry bulk materials in storage vessels (silos) using sensors, thus, providing meaningful insights to users for efficient management of raw materials. The data collected by the sensors is sent to the Politrace condition monitoring portal at high security. Users are able to keep a closer eye on their inventories anywhere at any time by using Politrace web-based user interface.

Rotary Valve Condition Monitoring

Rotary valves are essential in various industries for different industrial applications. They play an important role in modulating material flow processes which necessitate uninterrupted operations. Politrace enables its users to monitor the valve’s operating condition variables using multiple sensors during material discharge. Sensors can easily pick up varying signals of different variables such as rotor speeds, valve body and bearing temperatures and vibrations, power consumption, motor temperatures and vibrations, purge air pressures, pressures/vacuums at inlet and outlet ports, and safety protector case detections. These sensors relay the collected data to a gateway and then upload it to the cloud. The user can easily monitor the collected data in real time through the Politrace condition monitoring portal and make necessary adjustments.

With Polimak industrial IoT – Politrace, we transform your rotary valves into smart rotary valves.

Dust Collection System Monitoring

Dust collection systems are present in hundreds of thousands of industries across the world, from cement industries and metal fabricators to food and chemical processing industries. In most operations, dust collection systems act as ancillary equipment because they protect core production assets. Managing and maintaining dust collectors can be challenging in various operating facilities but the integration of industrial IoT solutions can help better production demands, cost-effective operations and unplanned downtimes.

Emission levels at discharge points are a parameter that could be monitored with Politrace and in a case where dust concentration levels approach or exceed permissible thresholds, users can be notified and take necessary measures. Other parameters that could be monitored include pressure drops across filters, energy consumption, mechanical health etc. Tracking the data of these parameters in real time with industrial IoT solutions enables users to make immediate adjustments that optimize the operating performance of the systems.

Quality Improvement and Preservation

Continuous monitoring of conditions critical to quality (e.g., product quality) is essential and can be attained by using sensors. Signals from sensors are sent to the Politrace condition monitoring portal and through which the management can easily receive notifications whenever quality thresholds are crossed and monitor them in real time. For instance in food products operations, variables like temperature and humidity can be of the essence to the quality of the end product. In such instances, whenever temperature and humidity thresholds are reached or crossed the management can be swiftly notified and take necessary measures thereby preserving product quality.

Production Line Performance Monitoring

Numerous easy-to-install sensors are available for monitoring any machinery such as CNC machines, hydraulic presses, rolling machines, packaging machines etc. Real time data of variables such as temperatures, vibrations, humidities, start-stop signals, failure signals, energy consumptions, press strokes etc., can be collected. The collected data is securely sent to a Politrace condition monitoring portal and analysed continuously.

Process Analysation

We are capable of coordinating our engineering team to analyse your machines and production lines depending on the requirements. They obtain process-related information i.e., a project’s expected output and determine the important data collection points in conjunction with our customer’s team.
