Liquid Tool

This remote monitoring system was to be integrated into the IoT network of the industrial complexes to help metalworking companies optimize and scale up production processes.

Used together with coolants produced by our client, the project extends the working life of industrial machines and makes their maintenance less costly.

The key technology that we applied is related to the measurement of the refractive index of light in liquids (sensors are refractometry-based). Thus, we have created a truly compact device ready for mass production.

Liquid Tool was once a traditional industrial company with an old-fashioned way of doing things. But they have decided to move forward and adopt a new strategy, automate their processes, step on the route towards Industry 4.0, and provide their customers with state-of-the-art IIoT solutions.

To automate the manual management of the coolant and improve productivity, special software was created. Coolant makes up 3% of the whole expenses during production, and affects the other 97% of the process, because the condition of machines and cutting knives heavily depend on the condition of the coolant. Liquid Tool solution brings out the best of automation to boost productivity.

The cloud-based software solution for Liquid Tool is represented by the application used by factory workers, and a cloud-based admin panel, where either part of management or the workers can see in real-time what happens on their factory floor.
