Real-time Crepper Motor Monitoring System (IoT Dashboard)
Real-time Crepper Motor Monitoring System Problem Statement: In a large-scale rubber processing plant, the “Crepper Machines” are the heart of production. The client, Sri Trang Agro-Industry PCL, needed to monitor the electrical current (Amps) of 3 critical motors in real-time. Previously, operators had to manually check readings from local panel meters, making it impossible to analyze historical trends or detect anomalies (like motor overload) instantly. The Challenge: Legacy Connectivity: The existing meters were standard Digital Meters (Primus TCM-94N-AB) communicating via Modbus RTU over RS-485, requiring a reliable bridge to the IT network. Data Integrity: The system needed to handle potential connection drops and ensure data continuity for accurate reporting. User Accessibility: The dashboard had to be accessible via a web browser on the local network without complex software installation on client machines. Our Solution: Hybrid IoT Gateway WP Solution architected a Web-based Monitoring System that bridges the gap between the factory floor and the control room. We utilized Node-RED as a robust middleware to poll data from the meters and Vue.js for a high-performance frontend dashboard. ...
