#EdgeComputing #HMI #DataDrivenwww.iotusecase.comIn episode 153 of the IoT Use Case Podcast, we dive into the world of IoT-driven quality inspection for plastic containers. Ken Kamlowsky, Managing Director of EXOR America, and Adam Thibert, Senior Controls Engineer at ALPS Inspections, talk about their successful partnership and how they leverage IoT data to overcome challenges in industrial quality assurance.Podcast episode summaryDigitalization in mechanical engineering is opening up new opportunities to increase efficiency and better meet customer needs. ALPS Inspections, a medium-sized company specializing in non-destructive leak testing of plastic containers, was looking for a modern solution to make machines more efficient, utilize data more effectively, and provide flexible remote support for customers. With the support of EXOR, a system was developed that combines hardware, software, and IoT integration. At the core of this solution are JSmart HMIs, which capture data directly at the machine, the versatile JMobile software for analysis and reporting, and the IoT platform CORVINA Cloud for remote access.The implementation of this IoT solution has successfully enabled several key use cases:Data-driven optimization of test processes: With new tools, customers receive a graphical representation of machine processes in real time, allowing them to optimize test and production settings precisely. Read moreGeneration of automated reports: Diagnostic data is compiled directly on the HMI into a 12-page PDF report, which can be sent via email or accessed remotely via the CORVINA Cloud. Read moreImproved response times and service efficiency: Instead of waiting for an on-site service technician, maintenance personnel can now gain immediate remote access to machines via a hotspot. Read moreIntegration of real-time data for predictive maintenance: A predictive maintenance model is currently in development to help customers identify and prevent potential issues early on.Data analysis for efficiency improvement: ALPS now has the capability to store data directly on the HMI, visualize it graphically, and use it for improved troubleshooting.The implementation has led to significant improvements: service costs have been greatly reduced through remote diagnostics, production processes run more efficiently, and customers benefit from real-time insights and automated reports. A key highlight is the close collaboration between ALPS and customers to tailor the system to their specific needs.Looking ahead, both companies aim to leverage AI and machine learning based on IoT data to further optimize machines. EXOR is focusing on its “Micro Edge” solutions, which aim to bring data processing even closer to the machines. This project demonstrates the importance of a clear strategy, open platforms, and collaborative partnerships for the successful implementation of IoT projects.-----Relevant links from this episode:Madeleine (https://www.linkedin.com/in/madeleine-mickeleit/)Ken (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ken-kamlowsky-3a297869/)Adam (https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-thibert-990629b2/)Jetzt IoT Use Case auf LinkedIn folgen

In this episode of the Spidey Sense series, Bryan and Bert dive deep into the art of refrigerant leak detection, sharing their wealth of experience and practical tips for HVAC technicians. They emphasize the importance of using one's senses and observation skills before relying solely on electronic tools, highlighting how this "Spidey Sense" approach is a hallmark of senior-level expertise in the field. Visual and tactile cues, including warm suction lines, frosted components, and signs of oil, are vital. Different symptoms point to specific kinds of leaks and various scenarios, so you need to understand the behavior of the system.  Bryan and Bert also discuss the strategic application of soap bubbles, electronic leak detectors, and nitrogen for pressurization. Each method has limitations, and you'll need to know when to employ them for maximum effectiveness. When detecting leaks, consider recent home renovations or equipment vibrations that might contribute to leaks. Topics covered in the podcast include: Visual and tactile cues for identifying potential refrigerant leaks The debate on frosted lines as indicators of low refrigerant charge Proper use of electronic leak detectors and their limitations Strategic application of soap bubbles in leak detection The importance of checking common leak locations (e.g., flare fittings, evaporator coils) Considerations for leak detection in newly installed or recently serviced systems The role of nitrogen in leak detection for systems with very low refrigerant charge Estimating the severity of a leak based on system pressure and charge level The pros and cons of isolation tests for line set leaks Techniques for detecting very small, slow leaks that might not show up in pressure tests The potential use of ultrasonic leak detection tools The importance of thorough inspection and patience in the leak detection process   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Mark Latham worked as a roofer in high school before becoming a firefighter for 22 years. Being a fireman taught him major life lessons, and how to lead others effectively. Latham would later start Firehouse Roofing Incorporated in 1997, earning the award of Best Roofer in DFW (Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex). They now specialize in all areas of exterior home services — roofing, siding, gutters, windows, and painting. He built his business the hard way, passing out flyers door to door. As a roofer in high school, he was making more money than any of his buddies which led to getting in some trouble and spending his money on “stupid stuff.” In fact, the paychecks were so good, he ended up quitting football and all other sports to focus on the trade. But it wasn't easy. He tried several other side-businesses trying to find a way out of roofing. However, nothing could match the revenue or the pride he found as a roofer. His parents didn't have the money to send him to college. So he tried his hand at the local junior college just so he could get into the fire academy. His mom was a teacher, and his dad was a small business owner doing insurance adjusting. Mark is still shocked his dad introduced him to the roofing industry because it is a wild bunch of guys operating in what are sometimes rough neighborhoods. But what hooked him was the grind, the hard labor. He developed a sense of pride and accomplishment. His sense of craftsmanship and pride came from his first boss. To Mark, leaders are more important than ever when it comes to developing young tradesmen who will eventually go on to solve residential problems. Once Firehouse Roofing started taking off, Mark realized he couldn't do it on his own. In fact, in the beginning, he didn't even have money to spend on marketing — which is an entirely different beast these days. He also explains the differences between a roof repair and a roof install. As opposed to being familiar with an existing customer, a roof install is a brand-new venture on its own. And with roofs, customers don't realize if it's done well or not, all they really know is if there's a leak. And Mark stresses the importance of doing the job with respect and care. According to Mark, one of the major issues most business owners need to face are their systems and processes. If the operator isn't good at it, then it would benefit them to hire someone who enjoys it. For young men and women who can't get a job in their college major or choice, Mark recommends checking out your options in the skilled trades and labor market. Want to make thousands of dollars this summer? Try roofing, or any of the skilled trades. But as Mark stresses, there is no magic bullet. To build wealth, to grow your bank account and your status, it takes constant hard work.

A Colombian engineer, Jessica is fascinated by the processes and complexity of water supply systems in urban areas.In her post doc research in Australia, she brings together her expertise on the water hammer and transient flow waves to create an AI model that is able to identify where pipeline defects are faster and more accurately than existing techniques.She explains that in data science, the most important stage is understanding the problem. You need to bring in basic knowledge of the problem and expertise from other disciplines that are involved in a problem and combine that with artificial intelligence. AI is an important tool but just part of the solution. It's critical to maintain all the legacy of knowledge and understanding of a problem. AI can make it simpler to apply, but you can't leave behind the physics or knowledge of the hydraulic part of water movement. Working in industry, she has found that it's important to first understand how the system works. In these large companies in charge of delivering water, each person has different objectives, so you need to understand how the company works, who is in charge, what are their objectives, and how they measure their success. If your research project aims at those things, they will be more receptive and a better chance of success.Jessica has learned in both research and industry consulting that nothing works the first time and it's important to not to let those little defeats build up in your head. You need to trust yourself. There are many moments in life when you are criticizing yourself, and you realize that the biggest enemy you have is yourself. She just breaks down the problem into small parts and then solves each part one by one. She is passionate about teaching and inspiring young engineers about the importance of water and the future of this invaluable resource.RELATED LINKSConnect with Jessica on LinkedINFind out more about the University of AdelaideConnect with Cindy Orozco Bohorquez on LinkedIN
