Rubber Compounding & Precision Weighing Control System Problem Statement: In the Master Batch (MB) and Carbon Master Batch (CMB) production lines of a leading automotive rubber manufacturer, manual chemical weighing processes were prone to human error. Deviations from the specific rubber formula resulted in quality issues, waste, and a lack of digital traceability. The Challenge: Precision Requirement: The system must interface directly with high-precision scales to ensure chemical weights fall within strict tolerance levels. Network Instability: Production cannot stop even if the factory network/server goes down. Inventory Control: Need real-time stock deduction and validation to prevent incorrect material usage (wrong lot/wrong type). Our Solution: Smart Weighing & Interlock System We developed a robust Windows Forms Application (C# .NET) that acts as the “Process Controller” for the mixing line. The system integrates IT and OT layers to enforce strict process control. ...

Precision Agriculture for Commercial Hemp Problem Statement: Hemp (Cannabis sativa) is a highly sensitive crop. Successful cultivation requires precise control over the Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD). Excessive humidity leads to mold (Bud Rot), while improper lighting schedules can disrupt the flowering cycle. Managing 8 large-scale greenhouses manually is inefficient and risky. The Challenge: The project required retrofitting and automating 4 out of 8 greenhouses. The system needed to integrate various actuators (Fans, Curtains, Pumps) and execute complex logic based on multiple sensor inputs (Light, Temp, Humidity) and Schedules. ...
