Industry 4.0 Meets Cold Chain: The Future of Freezing Systems

Nov 6, 2024 | Industry

Did you know that recent technological advancements are transforming how we maintain and monitor industrial freezing systems? Innovations like 𝐈𝐨𝐓-𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐬 and 𝐀𝐈-𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 are making it easier than ever to ensure the highest food safety standards and operational efficiency.

At Korutek, we recently leveraged this technology to run a remote diagnostic for a client with a service maintenance agreement with us. We detected a slight increase in energy consumption, this alerted us to investigate further. We discovered that this was due to friction being introduced to their spiral freezer from their products. Our team recommended a thorough cleaning and hygiene service, which brought the machine back to its optimal state with a simple solution. This proactive approach not only reduces electricity usage but also helps us identify early signs of potential breakdowns or critical parts damage, enabling preventive measures before major issues occur.

With the growing demand for energy-efficient and eco-friendly solutions, it’s clear that sustainable practices are shaping the future of freezing systems.
