Coffee Control Room: Coffee Data Management System Roasting.

  • Reading time 5 min

A very real advantage in a smart coffee company is the full traceability of the product, following all the steps in the process: from the source of the product to the shipping, from customs clearing to the person who processed it, from the reception of the product at the company to how it is introduced into the process, all the way to the end product delivered to the consumer. The IMA roasting and packaging machines exchange data with the entire process to increasingly automate not just an individual machine, but entire production flows and processes, to feed into and share with the company’s other management software. The processes are completely integrated with the activities.

IMA Coffee Hub has developed Coffee Control Room, a very valuable partner for the product traceability in line with the Industry 4.0.

Roasting and Plant Data

The systems developed by IMA Coffee allow the user to always have at disposal the data coming from the roaster and plant, organising them as preferred.

IoT technologies

Sensors and IT systems applied to machines and plants have made it possible to develop IoT systems, capable of communicating information regarding the machine in real time. In the cloud, through platforms designed to manage data to transform them into information which in turn will become the basic building blocks for production processes.

Reporting and Maintenance

Through these data reading systems, it is possible to analyze:

  • the state and performance of the machine;
  • production statistics;
  • performance over the period;
  • alarm monitoring;
  • remote real-time interventions;
  • preventive maintenance
