Ensure quality, food safety, and resource efficiency in every step of your process with TrendMiner.

Optimizing throughput & performance
in coffee processing
Why Relevant:

Extraction is the main bottleneck—any slowdown directly impacts profitability. Frequent CIP cycles in evaporators risk downtime, making sufficient pre-evaporator storage essential to maintain continuous extraction flow.

Why TrendMiner:

Balance production lines by calculating real-time usage rates of surrounding units from tank levels or flowrates. Determine if CIP can proceed safely or adjust extraction speed to maintain continuous, efficient operation without stoppages.

Ensuring stability & continuity in coffee processing
Why Relevant:

Extraction depends on stable, high-quality steam. Low supply or temperature drops hinder coffee hydrolysis and reduce yield. Detecting steam issues only at the extractor stage is often too late to prevent process failures.

Why TrendMiner:

Enable real-time monitoring and anomaly detection in boilers and extraction units to detect issues early. Leverage dashboards and ContextHub historical data to identify deviations, correct them fast, and prevent process failures.

Optimizing energy consumption in coffee processing
Why Relevant:

Roasting consumes excessive energy (120-200ºC for 20+ minutes), leading to high operational costs.

TrendMiner’s Solution:

Tracks energy usage across multiple roasting conditions. Identifies bottlenecks in energy consumption through visual analytics. Defines ideal operating conditions for cost-efficient roasting.

Brewing Efficiency: Smart Balancing in Coffee Extraction Lines

Industry Problem:

The powder coffee production line includes extraction, evaporation, and spray drying, with buffer tanks between each stage. Extraction is the bottleneck—slowest to convert, yet most critical. Key goals:

  • Ensure extraction runs 100% of the time at nominal speed
  • Manage buffer storage during evaporator cleaning (CIP)
  • Maintain steady feed to the spray dryer
  • Prevent downtime and maximize throughput
Goals:
  • Calculate the U coefficient and identify correlations between variables.
  • Detect anomalies in heat transfer to enable data-driven, preventive maintenance and avoid unexpected downtime.
Challenges:
  • Calculate the U coefficient and identify correlations between variables.
  • Detect anomalies in heat transfer to enable data-driven, preventive maintenance and avoid unexpected downtime.
Approach:
  • Calculate the U coefficient and identify correlations between variables.
  • Detect anomalies in heat transfer to enable data-driven, preventive maintenance and avoid unexpected downtime.
