By using specific algorithms, IoT technology, A.I., advanced sensors and the interconnection that can be used by a wide range of devices (PC, tablet, smartphone), it is possible to optimize and monitor the different pressing cycles, making them more flexible and autonomous. The chemical/physical features of the extracted juice are analysed and processed in a cloud platform, WINEGRID Dashboard, in order to communicated with the pneumatic press in realtime and achieve the winemaking qualitative goals and desired company targets.
