KTrack Helps Grain Facilities with Traceability & Inventory

KTrack helps grain elevators meet traceability requirements and improve inventory management. KTrack is software from Konnection, a division of Kasa Controls & Automation. Konnection provides automation, data collection and other software solutions across many industries, including grain handling. KTrack is Konnection’s first off-the-shelf product offering. It’s an untraditional Ignition project in that there are no devices, PLCs, motors, or sensors to control; there are only a few memory tags.

Unlimited History & Expandable SCADA

Sinton’s Dairy had several localized SCADA/HMIs that could not connect or share information with different parts of the plant. Operators were constantly having to jump from system to system in order to monitor and control the piece of the plant that they were operating. This brought about problems with tracking down and solving process issues because none of the historical data in these systems could be shared or used outside of the localized HMI. In order to improve usability and expedite problem solving, Sinton expressed the need for a centralized SCADA/HMI system.
