The client

A well-established Polish manufacturer of construction chemicals and waterproofing materials, focused on optimizing high-volume production through the strategic implementation of industrial automation and digital process control.

Business needs

The transfer process between tanks was already executed within the existing control system, but there was no tool allowing convenient analysis of historical operations. Process data was dispersed and difficult to interpret in the context of individual transfers. The goal of the project was to develop a reporting system enabling fast searching, filtering, and exporting of data related to material transfers between tanks.

The challenge

01

System Integration — Integration with the existing control system without disrupting critical process operations.
02

Data Structuring — Structuring raw process data into clear records representing individual transfers.
03

Historical Analysis — Efficient historical analysis even with large volumes of stored operational data.
04

Operator Interface — Intuitive operator interface for browsing production data without database knowledge.

Our solution

Transfer log

Implementation of logic that records each transfer between tanks as a separate report record.
Process data structure

Recording of key information such as date and time of operation, target weight, delivered weight, source tank, destination tank, and operator.
Advanced data filtering

Ability to filter reports by time range, tanks, and materials.
HMI reporting interface

Dedicated report screen for quick viewing of transfer history.

The outcome

The project delivered a transparent and efficient material transfer reporting system, which significantly improved the availability of production data and the ability of operators and process engineers to analyze it.

Full visibility — All material transfers are recorded and available in one place.
Quick analysis — Operators can find transfers from a selected time period in seconds.
Analytics support — The ability to export data to CSV allows for further analysis in business tools.
Improved control — Access to data such as target weight and delivered weight allows for easy detection of deviations.

What we implemented

Transfer Tracking System — Automatic recording of material transfer operations.
Industrial Reporting Interface — Report screen for operators in the HMI environment.
Process Data Filtering — Filtering data by time, tanks, and materials.
CSV Reporting Export — Exporting reports to formats used in business analysis.
