A cloud-based service for Monitoring and optimising food sorting processes

by Tomra, Norway

Following its successful launch last year by Tomra Sorting Recycling, Tomra Insight is now also being made available to its mining customers and the company’s Food family.

Tomra Insight turns sorting and grading machines into connected devices that generate valuable process data. This data is stored securely in the cloud, converted into actionable information and accessible from anywhere via a web portal for desktop and mobile devices.
 


For these industries, the platform is enhanced by new features and functionalities, says the company.

Data-gathering helps processors in near real-time and in retrospect. Because product quality is measured continuously, machine operators are empowered to make prompt and optimal adjustments to machine settings in response to product quality changes on the line.

And because Insight provides previously inaccessible deep-dive data, customers are now being empowered to make operational and business decisions based on more complete information.

The company’s engineers are helping customers analyse critical data every month as part of the its Insight subscription service. And accurate and timely comparisons are now possible between multiple sites, shifts, batches and seasons.

Felix Flemming, Vice President and Head of Digital at Tomra Sorting, commented, “By capturing and using valuable data, Tomra Insight is transforming sorting from an operational process into a strategic management tool.

“And this tool is constantly becoming more powerful as we continuously develop it in response to customers’ needs and priorities. New functionalities and features are released every three weeks – a routine during which we work closely with customers in pursuit of shared objectives,” he adds.
