Projects and solutions for the sector
Modernization of the Bianchini unit
Altus was responsible for modernizing a company unit for extracting vegetable oils, producing bran and biodiesel from soybean processing.
Protected Cultivation Solution
Altus products were used in an atmospheric control solution for greenhouses responsible for controlling the air conditioning and irrigation processes.
Intelligent crop fertilization
The cutting-edge technology embedded on our products was used to develop a high connectivity solution for the production of NPK fertilizers.
Controlled Atmosphere Chamber
Altus products were used for precise control over the level of oxygen and carbon dioxide used in a Controlled Atmosphere Chamber.
Our solutions for this industry
Irrigation control and grain harvest monitoring
A alta tecnologia embarcada nos controladores programáveis do Sistema Nexto permite automatizar os principais processos ligados ao cultivo de grãos. Com uma ampla variedade de opções de pontos de I/O, os CLPs da Série NX podem controlar sensores e acionadores presentes nos sistemas de irrigação. A capacidade de processamento dos produtos Altus também possibilita otimizar o consumo de água baseado em condições do solo e previsões meteorológicas.
Estes recursos disponíveis nas CPUs da Série NX ainda propiciam a aplicação de arquiteturas de automação precisas para o processo de colheita. Os CLPs Nexto podem atuar no monitoramento sobre o estágio de maturidade dos grãos, aumentando a eficiência e reduzindo perdas.
Telemetry and remote field control technology
The built-in features of the Nexto PLCs allow them to control a variety of processes in agriculture, such as irrigation and supplementation. These controllers connect to the internet via a 4G modem and USB interface, sending operational data to an SQL database in the cloud using MQTT or OPC UA protocols.
Information can also be accessed directly on your computer through WebServer dashboards, enabling efficient remote operations, faster decision-making, and reduced maintenance travel costs.
Environmental control for greenhouse and livestock management
Managing environmental variables is critical in agribusiness. By using Nexto PLCs in your applications you gain precise control over factors like light intensity, temperature, irrigation, humidity, and CO2 levels, fostering ideal growth conditions in greenhouses.
This same level of control applies to enclosed environments in poultry, livestock, and swine farming. Nexto PLCs automate ventilation, heating, and cooling systems to maintain optimal conditions for animal health. Sensors connected to the PLCs can also monitor animal well-being, alerting you to health issues or nutritional needs.
Enhanced protection with conformal coating for harsh environments
All Nexto controllers are treated with a conformal coating process, adding an extra layer of protection to circuit boards, connectors, and critical components against environmental hazards.
Essa camada extra de conservação protege os produtos contra umidade, poeira ou condutivos que podem estar presentes em ambientes da agroindústria, atuando como uma barreira protetora eficaz contra a umidade, evitando a corrosão de componentes sensíveis.
This investment in durability keeps your operations running smoothly while safeguarding your technology for years to come.
