Advanced Manufacturing Plan: Government funding boost to develop smart factories
Last month’s Autumn Statement heralded the launch of the UK government’s Advanced Manufacturing Plan.
Outlining how...
In order to taste success in the Food & Beverage sector, product quality and safety must be second to none.
From strict quality control measures to testing and adherence to food safety regulations, you rely on your manufacturing process to deliver consistently high-grade products. RS Industria will help you to monitor every piece of the production cycle, guaranteeing the output that will uphold your reputation.
Real-time condition-based monitoring is the key to success
Traditional methods of condition monitoring can frequently fall short in identifying subtle variations in factory assets. Often carried out periodically, they can lead to unplanned downtime, critical failure and product waste.
Real-time data enables a proactive approach to condition-based monitoring. Subtle variations in asset data can provide leading indicators of issues and help maintenance teams deploy planned maintenance before there is a critical failure.
Energy Monitoring to help F&B manufacturers become more sustainable
Assets such as industrial ovens and freezers consume large amounts of energy, and often their consumption is left unchecked. Having visibility of your energy consumption on an asset-by-asset or line-by-line basis allows you to track consumption and spot trends.
In many cases, energy usage data can reveal opportunities to reduce consumption and make savings in the £1,000's on just a single production asset.
