Monitoring of silo bags, quality and safety of stored grains
Technology at the service of the field, ensuring conservation and product integrity
Information and real-time monitoring, anytime and anywhere
e-SILOBAG is an innovative storage monitoring system designed for a variety of agricultural products. It ensures the monitoring of grains and other stored products, tracking the composition and integrity of the stored materials.
Its applications are diverse, from the storage of green and wet grains to the composting of agricultural and animal feed products directly in the field.
The main objective of the system is to automatically provide significant advantages to users of bag silos. This is achieved through real-time alerts for a wide range of abnormalities detected at the monitored site. Consequently, users can plan storage efficiently, provide timely assistance and make necessary adjustments to the stored materials, all thanks to the comprehensive protocols and information provided by e-SILOBAG.
e-SILOBAG integrates intelligent sensors (IoT) that provide crucial data for both monitoring and informed decision-making.
Mobile data, transmitted reliably via satellite, is received by a network of antennas located at ground stations around the world.
This vital information is securely stored on a dedicated server, securely accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
In addition, the system offers unparalleled accessibility, allowing users to monitor and control their storage regardless of their location, using a mobile device or a personal computer at any time.
Purpose and Functionalities
The e-SILOBAG System offers a multitude of applications, with a primary focus on the storage of green and wet grains and the on-site composting of agricultural by-products and animal feed.
Its development represents a significant step towards creating a versatile, a “Swiss Army Knife” technology for the agricultural sector, enabling seamless communication between devices and internet servers, even in areas without GSM or Wi-Fi signal.
As a dedicated technology for the agricultural sector, e-SILOBAG aims to provide relevant and timely information to decision-makers. This enables them to effectively monitor the condition of their stored products, regardless of their physical presence on site, with complete control accessible via mobile devices and computers.
This capability is supported by the system’s built-in IoT smart sensors and robust connectivity with data communication devices, enhanced by the unique mobile data download capability via a satellite network. The acquired data is then securely stored on a secure, dedicated server, ensuring constant availability and protection against cyber threats.
The implementation of e-SILOBAG significantly reduces the need for manual control interactions, which often consume valuable time and resources for personnel movement and collection of product samples for analysis of stored grain and product conditions.
The main functionalities of the monitoring system include internal surveillance of bag silos, tracking critical parameters such as temperature, moisture content and gas emissions. In addition, the system provides valuable data on the temperature and relative humidity of the internal/external environment.
Ultimately, e-SILOBAG aims to provide an innovative solution for the monitoring of bag silos, recognizing their strategic importance as a storage method increasingly adopted by producers in the growing agribusiness sector.
The main objective remains to automatically provide users with the advantages of a sophisticated monitoring system, offering real-time alerts for various anomalies and facilitating efficient planning, assistance and operational adjustments, all guided by the protocols and information inherent to the system.
