How Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is changing Leather Manufacturing Industry

Introduction

A reputed leather manufacturer sought an asset monitoring system to track factory machines, control costs, and boost productivity.

The Problem Outline

Our technical team visited the client to assess IoT implementation for their diverse leather manufacturing machines. They needed a remote diagnostic tool for machine health, usage, and maintenance insights to boost productivity.

Key focus areas included monitoring Hot Pressing Machines, Screw Air Compressors, and Wet & Dry Finishing Drums, along with tracking electricity consumption to cut costs. Previously, they analyzed production line performance but lacked machine-specific data. They required real-time monitoring of machine status (ON/OFF) to optimize efficiency.

The Solution Summary

Our cloud-based IoT solution enables seamless machine monitoring across locations, providing infrastructure insights for an enhanced digital experience. The web-based platform tracks real-time parameters, offering visibility and performance evaluation over time.

With IoT devices, power consumption in production lines is easily monitored. The system continuously tracks critical parameters and trends, empowering managers with data-driven decisions. Running 24×7 on Trinetra Tsense’s IoT platform, it ensures real-time monitoring and operational efficiency:

• Know your assets performance in real-time
• Finds the trend in faults and discrepancies
• Increases machine health and reduces the maintenance cost
• Overall Cost Savings for the unit in power and resources
• Performance of machines analysed and reports generated immediately.
• Value Addition to improve productivity

Outcome / Result

• Remote monitoring gives 24×7 visibility of assets at remote locations
• Instant notification/alerts on abnormalities and hazards
• Remote monitoring of machine health increases uptime and productivity
• Helps in better energy management of assets for company
• Overall improved machine performance

Our cloud-hosted IIoT solution uses purpose-built sensors to monitor key parameters, enabling remote diagnostics and analytics. This enhances machine performance and boosts manufacturing productivity.
