NewHybrid control for C&I batteries: stop exporting at negative prices
Industries / Plastics, paints and chemicals

Machines, compressors, steam and water.

Plastics, paints and chemicals plants heat, cool, dry and move material around the clock. BOX2M reads every machine, compressor, steam line and water circuit without stopping production, sends the data to the cloud and turns it into cost and CO₂ per tonne, per batch and per product.

Challenges

Heat, cold and air on every line.

Heating and cooling at once

Barrels, dryers and reactors heat the material. Chillers and cooling water take the heat out again.

Machines of every age

Moulding machines, extruders and mixers from different vendors and decades, most without a meter of their own.

Production can't stop

Installation has to happen without cutting a pipe or stopping a continuous line.

Emissions and energy on record

Authorities, buyers and banks ask for emissions, energy and CO₂ per tonne.

Across the plant

What BOX2M measures, stage by stage.

From raw material to dispatch. Every stage feeds the same data model in the cloud.

1

Raw materials and storage

level · °C · %RH

Tank levels, and temperature and humidity in stores, with alarms.

2

Moulding and extrusion

kWh · kW · run time

Energy, run time and starts per injection moulding machine and extrusion line.

3

Process heat and steam

t/h · bar · °C · Nm³

Steam and gas to reactors, dryers and mixers: vortex meters retrofitted.

4

Cooling

kWh · m³/h · °C

Chiller energy and cooling water per machine group, with clamp-on meters. No pipe cuts.

5

Utilities

kWh · Nm³ · bar

Compressors, boilers and pumps: the plant that feeds the plant.

6

Environment and wastewater

emissions · PM · m³

Emissions and discharge next to production data.

KPIs

The numbers a process plant runs on.

Per tonne, per batch, per machine and per shift, updated every minute in the cloud and reported in PDF or CSV. The same data goes to your ERP, MES or maintenance system over API.
