Demonstrating and trialing of an internet-of-things solution for real-time computation and delivery of plant KPIs

This project considered opportunities for introducing Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions to the Australian red meat processing industry, aiming to improve productivity for the worker and the plant.

The project conducted a consultation with the Australian meat processing industry that identified major opportunities for introducing IIoT solutions for real-time computing of knife sharpness and plant yield KPIs.

This consultation outcome led to the development and trial of an IIoT solutions for real-time KPI computation of knife sharpness that was conducted at the plant of an industry partner.

The report provides an overview of this solution and the outcomes of its trial during several normal production shifts.
