Affordable Technologies with Best ROI for Sugar Mills

The innovative technologies of UHF (ultrahigh high-frequency stickers), RFID (radio-frequency identification tags), cloud database, mobile apps, and customized software have created an enormous scope of efficiency and productivity improvements with accuracy and cost savings through smart automation and integration of Weighbridges and Vehicles' movement at Sugar Industries and Canefields.

The customized low-cost solutions by the innovation-driven startups of recent times have made the technologies achievable and affordable even for the small and medium-scale sugar mills with the 100% and assured return on investments in a short time.

Weighbridge Automation System is a unique combination of hardware and software innovated and developed to ensures secured weighments under CCTV surveillance, with real-time reporting of weighing data, integration with ERP database, remote excess, and customization according to the specific mill’s requirement.

Custom automation delivers secure and smart weighment systems with the combination of cutting edge UHF or RFID technology, photo-capturing, video recording, safe storage, and electronic transfer of data including integration with SAP or ERP. The smart cards or sticker tags enable automatic weighing, identification, tracking, and data reporting with 100% round-the-clock operation reliability, eliminating operator dependence.

Mobile technology has become a game-changer in disseminating sugarcane management and timely delivery of information tailor-made to the cane growers and cane development managers so as to get enhanced cane productivity. Cane Management Android Mobile Software are already developed for keeping track of the amount of cane cultivated for the factory, keeping track of transportation required including GPS Tracking, advance payments, smart weighbridge management, MIS, and bills, etc.

A combination of technologies for the sugar mill and cane procurement management includes the followings features:

 Photo Capturing System - weighment under CCTV surveillance,

 Anti-theft Security Checks – eliminate pilferages and frauds, restrict double weighment of the same vehicle, restrict zero error, verify vehicle identity,

 Unmanned Weighment - no operator required and reduce weighing cycle time (in and out of the vehicle) at the weighbridge,

 Data Management Software – secured database for controlling, reporting, and integrating with ERP/SAP,

 E-Reporting – for transferring weighment data with photographs through email or SMS,

 Positioning Sensors - restrict manipulation in vehicle positioning on Weighbridge platform,

 Mobile Technology and Apps for Cane Management – Cane Development and Scheduling Activities, Crop Advisory, Field Staff Planning, and Tracking, Online/Offline Canefield Survey, Farmer Document Upload, Village / Zone wise Indent Position, Farmer Registration and Account details, Plot Detail, and Plantation Planning, Weighment, Payment and Balance Details, Mobile App Integration, and Need-based Customized Applications.

The secured database created on the cloud or integrated with ERP/SAP can be remotely accessed for the generation of reports on desired formats. The datewise and vehicles database is stored for any future date access till desired.

The economic and affordable state of the art technology of automation is a result of continuous tech developments and perfections by a highly accomplished team of IIT Engineers, who have been delivering the need-based automation and logistics solutions with successful implementations in over 100 industries including Sugar, Oil, Cement, Steel, Paper Plants, and Mining Sites all over India, Nepal, and Nigeria. The team has pioneered in services that include specific designing of the integrated process, supply of hardware with customized software, installation, commissioning, and warranty with after-sales service.
