Dairy Plant Automation

Automate and track your dairy production from raw material to shipping with one cohesive MES and SCADA system.

Dairy Production Just Got a Whole Lot Smoother

Modern dairy plants have to stay flexible to keep up with changing regulations and consumer demand. Industrial automation can help provide that flexibility — but only if it’s done right.

Unfortunately, plants often run on various software systems that don’t talk, creating what we call “islands of automation.” These disparate systems drag down your productivity with unreliable data, quality control issues, and limited visibility of your supply chain.

We think your MES and SCADA solutions should cater to your process, not the other way around. What if you could see your entire production — inventory, equipment status, batch scheduling, product lines, operator information, business KPIs, and more — and make changes from any device?

Some might call it living the IIoT dream. We call it the new standard.
