Industrial internet of things in production of cooked smoked sausages

The producers of meat products and semi-finished products often use the equipment of the 90s. Such equipment does not possess modern means of transmitting diagnostic data and information about the current state wirelessly, and requires periodic monitoring during a shift. Lack of timely diagnostic data can lead to work of equipment failures and unforeseen downtime. At the same time, the development of technical means of communication allows connecting industrial equipment to the Internet and receiving data on the current status of the equipment remotely online. In industrial production, this technology is called the industrial Internet of things. The article discusses the use of the ESP32 microcontroller, the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport network protocol and the corresponding server and client software for connecting the MULTIVAC R5200 packaging machine to the industrial Internet of things. It is shown that the use of the industrial Internet of things when packing cooked-smoked sausages can reduce the time of maintenance of the packaging machine and the consumption of spare parts, and reduce the amount of marriage. In the future, the spread of such technology to the equipment of the entire enterprise allows solving the problems of collecting a large amount of data on the current state of equipment, conducting analysis and making managerial decisions.
