As part of the food industry, the dairy industry has a special role to play and must involve various stakeholders.
From animal welfare and partnerships with farmers to legal regulations and the requirements of retailers and consumers. Specially developed heating processes, batch traceability, automatic test solution generation, preventive maintenance and cleaning validation are just some of the special challenges facing the dairy industry.
Batch traceability in the dairy industry must be guaranteed in two directions in order to be able to identify a specific production batch and at the same time link different products to a milk delivery used.
The transparency of batch components must be fully guaranteed for some products.
In addition to complete documentation, batch management can be used to track stock movements and, if necessary, block batches for sale.
Consecutive article and serial numbers make it possible to assign batches.
Cleaning validation ensures that defined cleaning processes are carried out punctually and properly.
In terms of quality management, microbiological contamination is prevented and food safety is guaranteed.
Automatic inspection lots are created to ensure the quality of ingredients and products.
The inspection lot contains all the necessary data required for testing and ensuring product quality.
This includes, for example
the ingredients to be tested, criteria and test plans.
The inspection lot also specifies how the sampling must be carried out and provides information on the location, quantity and method.
The quality standards and criteria are also defined in the inspection lot.
Exemplary parameters are specifications and tolerance limits.
Detecting deviations in the production process at an early stage is an important factor in preventing downtime and quality problems.
Anomalies can be detected by analyzing sensor data and data from production in real time.
Another AI-based anomaly detection relates to the analysis of master data.
Incorrect and incomplete master data can indicate potential problems.
Identifying these in advance ensures a smooth production process.
Preventive maintenance – SAP Preventive Maintenance – helps companies to ensure high capacity utilization and trouble-free availability of the machines used.
Regular measures that need to be carried out as part of maintenance can be standardized in the form of work plans, for example.
can be standardized in the form of work plans.
Clear planning of all necessary repairs and maintenance minimizes downtimes.
Well-maintained, state-of-the-art machinery also ensures high product quality.
Legal regulations and aspects of environmental protection are also easier to monitor and comply with.
Spray drying in the dairy industry is a costly and energy-intensive process.
This complex process requires a lot of different data from sensors, which must be available in real time.
Through the use of new technologies such as cloud and blockchain.
Cloud and blockchain, spray drying can be carried out at a higher speed and with better quality using digital twins.
Moisture fluctuations are minimized and a larger quantity of products can be produced with stable quality.
With SAP PLM Product Lifecycle Management and recipe development, it is possible to centrally manage all specifications, recipes, product data, raw materials, ingredients and even labels.
This information is also available to other departments such as QM, purchasing, product safety or sales.
This ensures correct recipe management, continuous production and product quality.
This enables you to meet market requirements in terms of time-to-market, quality and costs.
To calculate the Nutri-Score, we offer an add-on developed by GQS that calculates the Nutri-Score label based on the data from SAP Recipe Development.
New technologies such as AI, IOT and machine learning help your company to improve processes along the entire value chain.
For example, the use of the SAP Digital Manufacturing Cloud SAP DMC brings a number of benefits:
Variant configuration enables the production of particularly small batch sizes.
Real-time analyses alert you to production problems and their causes.
Optimized throughput times in production ensure satisfied customers and data-based simulations of production check possible effects on planning activities.
SAP Enterprise Asset Management, SAP EAM, is designed to manage the entire lifecycle of an asset – from capital planning, procurement and installation to performance, maintenance, compliance, risk management and asset retirement.
By taking a holistic view of the entire operation, enterprise asset management software allows you to significantly increase efficiency.
With proactive maintenance, assets are operated optimally. This reduces electricity consumption, the CO2 footprint and other environmental impacts, and data from a variety of complementary systems can be integrated into EAM in real time. This repository of meaningful data supports powerful predictive analytics and business insights so that assets can be optimally managed.
Our GQS products and SAP add-ons support you in solving the challenges of your industry. Running on SAP S/4HANA, we offer new digital features based on Fiori and Cloud and create an exceptionally intuitive user experience for your end users. We supply a wide range of solutions specifically for the dairy industry.
High quality and safety standards apply to the dairy industry. Combined with growing price pressure, economic efficiency plays a decisive role. Digital networking concepts in the form of system visualization and automatic monitoring concepts help dairies to monitor processes, detect deviations and record them digitally. In terms of “predictive maintenance”, errors in production, raw material losses or complaint rates can be reduced.
