Artificial Intelligence and Web Interface
The acquired sensor data are fed to our AI-algorithms which provides reliable process information about the freezing and defrosting processes. Depending on the application, our sensors can be combined with other sensing modalities to provide a complete image of the process.
The web interface is used to visualize the processed data and manage the device settings for different products. The software supports Modbus TCP/IP direct communication with PLC units for automatic process control.
Level Of Frozenness certificate
To meet the increasing demands for quality reporting and traceability of products, our system automatically generates quality reports of all processed data. The report gives an overview of the evaluated products and their respective Level Of Frozenness (LOF) values. Since the products are scanned inline, the quality of every product or batch is checked. The products which are sufficiently frozen, receive the level-of-frozenness certificate to confirm the highest quality standards. This confirmation will enhance the trust of your customers in your freezing processes.
