Digital Tranformation in Bulk Inventory E-Book

Supply Chain IoT Internet of Things Digital Transformation Industry 5.0

Not long ago, bulk material management involved dirty clipboards, dangerous climbing, and long tape measures to determine grain, plastic, and cement levels in a bin or silo. Enter digital transformation, which replaced antiquated processes with high-tech instruments like BinMaster level sensors and cloud software.

Learn how digital transformation improves supply chain resilience, automation, accuracy, and efficiency, benefiting workers collaborating in a digital system.

Bin Level Measurement Transformed by IoT

Agriculture Food Processing IoT Internet of Things

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.

A simple login on a website app or Software as a Service (SaaS) program puts real-time data in front of workers who need it to make timely decisions. Remote monitoring software benefits include improved processing efficiency, smarter ordering, optimized delivery schedules, and reduced carrying costs. Monitoring bin levels while on-site or off-premises boosts visibility throughout the company. Automated high- or low-level alerts via text or email allow for proactive action that can add to a mill’s bottom line.

IoT is Key to Cloud Inventory

Cloud Software IoT Internet of Things Continuous Level Sensors

Organizations face a storm of challenges: the strain of product demand, limited supply chain resources, and an unprecedented exodus of people leaving the workforce. Thankfully, Industry 4.0 technology and systems provide some relief.

Industry 4.0 is a system that combines informational and operational technology to make manufacturing more aware, predictive, and autonomous. Employees operating in a 4.0 environment are highly connected with a more complete view of their business ecosystem. Level sensors and software directly feed the Industry 4.0 atmosphere.

Municipal Water Measured with Radar

IoT Internet of Things Radar Level Sensors Compact Sensors

Islands in the Caribbean endure plenty of weather events, but Hurricane Maria in 2017 was particularly damaging to Puerto Rico. According to their government, the water system—consisting of 114 municipal water treatment plants—was severely damaged, leaving about half of the residents without water.

Extra funding and attention to long-term solutions include water level storage sensors and software by BinMaster.

Danger Lurks on Ladders, Measure Cement with Sensors and Software

Cement IoT Internet of Things Safety

Every year, more than 500,000 people are treated for ladder-related injuries—according to the U.S. Center for Disease Control. 300 of these people die. The cost is high—both personally and financially—as ladders account for work loss, medical, and legal fees, and pain and suffering. It’s a $24 billion problem.

Industries are quickly realizing the best solution is automation when it comes to silo, tank, or bin measurements. BinMaster provides sensors that continuously measure bulk inventory and send data to a cloud-based application for use by operations, maintenance, transportation, and supply staff.

Read how a leading North American cement provider took on these site safety challenges.

Binventory® has Hart: One Login. One Password. One Inventory Report.

Cloud Software IoT Internet of Things 3D Level Measurement

According to Forbes, more than 54% of all manufacturers have instituted or launched a smart factory initiative. Smart factories call for asset tracking, intelligent RFID, and sensors to lower costs, provide advanced analytics, and make data cloud accessible.

The rate of implementation is happening at a dizzying rate, often leaving operations with a hodge-podge of log-ins, reports and tracking.

BinMaster sensors and software have been a mainstay for smart factories for decades—in fact, before the term smart factory was fashionable! We know—and helped build—the smart factory movement. First with eBob, and now with Binventory, that hodge-podge of data is pulled together into one easy-to-decipher inventory report.
