A leading food producer came to Augos for pump maintenance. In consultation we found the real goal was quality assurance, so we built a tailor-made system that reads motor health and cold-store conditions every minute, and proves the pasteurisation was right.
Augos was approached by an industry-leading food producer with a specific problem: keep the pumps on their pasteuriser plant running. What began as a pump maintenance brief became something more valuable once we sat down with the team.
Through consultation it became clear the real goal was quality assurance. By monitoring pump speed and efficiency, a good general indicator of pump health, the client could confirm the pasteurisation duration was precise enough to deliver the required product standard for their pasteurised egg whites. That tied operational stability directly to the integrity of the final product.
Food producers here need auditable QA records for both local health compliance and international export. The system records every minute of cold-store and motor-health data as a tamper-proof digital log that stands up to a strict food-safety inspection, reducing the client's exposure to recalls or regulatory fines from a quality failure.
To meet the requirement without the cost of a traditional vibration-measurement rig, we built a custom solution:
All readings are captured every minute and sent to the Augos cloud platform for immediate insight.
The platform turns the measurements into real-time monitoring and action:
Quality assurance. The client first asked for pump preventative maintenance, but the deeper need was to prove product quality. By monitoring pump speed and efficiency we could confirm the pasteurisation ran long enough to guarantee the standard, linking machine behaviour directly to product integrity.
With a custom PCB that reads motor temperature and current alongside vibration. Combined, these give an effective, cost-efficient motor-health indicator, avoiding the cost of a traditional vibration-measurement setup.
Yes. Every minute of cold-store and motor data is recorded as a tamper-proof digital log. That auditable record satisfies local health compliance and international export standards, and cuts exposure to recalls or fines from a quality failure.
