Food & Agri

In food and agricultural applications, machines operate in environments with moisture, dust and intensive cleaning. Technology supports production and quality control. Intemo provides industrial computers and displays tailored to these conditions, selected for reliability and long operational lifetimes.

Industry in a different context

The Food & Agri sector may seem similar to traditional industry, but it operates within a unique context. Machines in this sector stillproduce, sort, measure and control, but the environmental challenges are significantly different. In food production and agricultural applications,factors such as hygiene, cleaning, moisture, dust and constantly changing environments play a more prominent role. Consider sorting lines,quality control with cameras, automated processes in plants, and climate and process control in greenhouses. These technologies are crucial in ensuring consistent output across the food production and agriculture sectors. Manufacturers of large agricultural machinery, such as John Deere, benefit from these advanced technologies, as they help transform manual labor into scalable, consistent production.

The impact of downtime

In the food & agri sector, the efficiency of operations can be quickly compromized if systems become unreliable. Downtime leads to lost production, rushed planning and in some cases product rejection or waste, which directly impacts both output and cost. Moreover, agricultural equipment is often deployed in remote locations, making timely intervention crucial. When issues arise, a mechanic may need to travel to the site to resolve the problem. In suc cases, you want hardware that not only performs well, but most importantly, keeps running reliably, ensuring continuous productivity without unexpected interruptions.

Technology tailored to practice

Intemo supports companies in the Food & Agri sector with industrial computing solutions that are specifically tailored to real-world conditions. Our solutions provide reliable control, clear operator information via panel PCs and screens, and configurations that are designed to withstand the challenges of wet and dusty environments. We also consider important factors like IP rating to ensure equipment remains protected when subjected to intensive cleaning or condensation.

Pitfalls in component selection

A common pitfall in the Food & Agri sector is the temptation to choose consumer-grade components because they seem faster or cheaper, like video cards for image processing, for example. While they may appear attractive on paper, they often fall short in real-world delivery and long-term stability, especially inmachines that need to remain identical for years. Intemo helps you avoid these pitfalls by carefully selecting components based on lifetime availability,deliverability and reliabilty. We focus on technical preparation (including adressing software preconditions), thorough testing before delivery and proactive lifecycle management to ensure that your systems remain stable and predictable, even as operational demands evolve.

Long-term reliability

This is how you build systems that not only perform today, but also continue to deliver reliable functionality for years to come.
