Perfect Batch
Perfect Batch applies industrial AI to identify ideal batch profiles from historical data and actively recommend actions for increasing efficiency. By continuously monitoring and simultaneously optimizing five key dimensions — utilization, cycle time, quality, process control and yield — operations teams gain actionable intelligence that helps them reduce investigation times, minimize waste and accelerate continuous improvement activities.
GEA
CookStar First
The GEA CookStar First features a twin-zone spiral configuration with integrated booster impingement. By combining horizontal and vertical airflow, the system achieves uniform heat transfer across the conveyor belt. This uniformity enables cooking times to be reduced by 10-30% while maintaining consistent product color and internal doneness. Throughput can reach up to 1,700 kg per hour, and more stable thermal conditions contribute to yield improvements of up to 3%.
Siemens
Digital Twin Composer
Digital Twin Composer enables industrial companies to combine 2D and 3D digital twin data from Siemens’ comprehensive digital twin with physical real-time information in a managed, secure real-time photorealistic visual scene, built using NVIDIA Omniverse libraries. With Digital Twin Composer, companies can rapidly build and maintain this global environment, containing all aspects of their product or production data (both virtual and physical) in a secure, managed high-fidelity 3D experience, throughout the lifecycle of the product, process or facility.
Seeq
