Cookie Machine PLC Data Collection and Remote Monitoring System Solution

In the context of Industry 4.0, smart manufacturing has become the transformational direction for global manufacturing industries.

 As a core technology of smart manufacturing, data collection IoT systems enable real-time monitoring of equipment operational status, prevention of production failures, and optimization of production processes, bringing tangible benefits to enterprises.

As an important device in the baking industry, the monitoring and management of cookie machine production processes face new challenges.

 On one hand, standalone equipment operation without networking lacks data sharing and remote monitoring capabilities. On the other hand, inadequate emergency management and maintenance control capabilities result in high costs. In response, WideIOT (Wutong Bolian's English translation) offers an IoT solution for PLC data collection and remote monitoring of cookie machines, helping enterprises enhance production efficiency and reduce production costs.

This solution primarily consists of the following components:

1. PLC: Serves as the data processing and control center, responsible for executing automated control programs and connecting to data collection devices.
2. Industrial Smart Gateway: Collects real-time operational data from the PLC of the cookie machine and enables real-time communication (5G/4G/WIFI/Ethernet).
3. Monitoring Platform: Facilitates visual monitoring, management, control, analysis, and PLC remote maintenance of the data.

The Cookie Machine PLC Data Collection and Remote Monitoring System Solution offers the following functionalities:

1. Real-time Monitoring: Operators can view real-time operational data of the cookie machine via smartphones or computers, promptly detecting abnormalities and preventing production failures.
2. Data Analysis: Through statistical analysis of the cookie machine's operational data, operators can grasp production patterns, optimize production processes, and enhance production efficiency.
3. Remote Control: Operators can remotely start or stop the cookie machine via smartphones or computers, enabling unmanned production.
4. Fault Alarm: When abnormalities occur in the cookie machine, the system automatically triggers alarms, notifying operators promptly via WeChat, SMS, or email.
5. Remote Maintenance: Engineers can remotely program, debug, and upload/download programs for PLCs in different locations, improving work efficiency and reducing travel.
6. Equipment Management: Enables tracking, viewing, and monitoring of equipment across various regions, providing crucial information on equipment asset distribution, quantity, and status.
