The benefits of automated batch production for breweries

Brewing is inherently batch-based, and zenon uses powerful Internet of Things technology to offer several other significant benefits to this type of production:

 

  • Flexibility to adapt to market demands: Whether you need to change your practices to meet your customers' latest tastes or federal requirements, zenon offers easy flexibility without exorbitant costs. It also provides high scalability, a necessity for any growing brewery to meet demands with automated batch production.
  • Consistent products: Manual operations are vulnerable to human error, but automation ensures consistency in each and every batch. zenon also delivers consistent monitoring for quality. Your customers can expect the same level of quality every time they crack open a drink, and federal agencies can expect compliance with health and safety regulations.
  • Increased efficiency: Automation can meet production demands more efficiently than manual processes alone. In addition to improving the speed of physical production, zenon can also provide a range of insights, like visualization and analysis, that can help you find more ways to strengthen your operation.
  • Greater connectivity and control options through IoT: The IoT brings your devices together through sensors, internet and interconnections between equipment. By using IoT in your automated brewing control, you can gain more comprehensive control and oversight of your systems by allowing machines to communicate with each other and with brewery management.
