Algist Bruggeman Uses Insights from InfluxDB to Optimize Industrial Processes and Production

Algist Bruggeman, a Belgian company that supplies yeast to various industries, partnered with Factry to implement a digital factory built on open source technologies, including InfluxDB. The new system automatically loads recipe data from ERP systems and SCADA servers, eliminating manual intervention and creating gaps for input errors. The company now collects granular data from PLCs and sends it to InfluxDB at 1 Hz resolution, providing greater observability into production processes, deeper insights that drive optimization, and better quality control. This shift has also brought unexpected benefits such as efficient material requirements planning, predictive maintenance, and anomaly detection, ultimately transforming industrial fermentation with the power of time series data and open source technologies like InfluxDB.
