U-MIND Sentinel: Key tool for the industry of the future
The digitization and smart automation of the manufacturing industry will contribute 14% of global GDP by 2030, amounting to some $15 trillion.
Industry 4.0 represents a solid ambition and a highly transformative impact on traditional industry.
How to monitor all the facilities of a company? How to manage all the data collected?
U-MIND Sentinel is an intelligent supervisory system that enables real-time monitoring and interaction of logistics facilities.
ULMA Handling System is a company present in Europe and Latin America, leader in the field of automated integrated intralogistics and customized logistics technology.
The main objective of the Supervisor system was to monitor in real time a warehouse park located all over the world. The goal was to achieve a system that could monitor different sources of the facilities in real time and that could be controlled from anywhere.
The great challenge was to manage and decipher a large amount of data and information automatically and to detect and supervise if there were any problems. To guarantee the quality and reliability of the logistics processes, it was essential to have a highly scalable, reliable and secure infrastructure that could be managed through the cloud.
The process
It was decided to opt for a hybrid architecture that would unite a local and an aggregated view by leveraging the Azure cloud and the Smart Concepts framework.
IoT sensors are installed in warehouses that emit signals of different nature and trigger an alert that warns the customer of a problem.
U-Mind Sentinel is capable of converting a large amount of data produced by intelligent warehouses into useful information and enables current knowledge of the situation and status of each of the warehouses, regardless of the location and time of connection.
System development based on Smart Concepts and Azure.
Each sends the information to Smart Concepts through standard protocols, properly secured, where the information is processed to make it available to customers.
Supervisor lays the foundations for the industry of the future, thanks to a system that guarantees the quality and reliability of intralogistics processes through the cloud.
Supervisory system for the manufacturing sector.
“Thanks to U-MIND Sentinel we are managing to monitor in real time all the facilities where we have it implemented. From our control and attention center we are managing to anticipate situations that could generate a serious shutdown. It is undoubtedly the key tool we need to meet and improve the SLAs with our customers”.
