Zyter Introduces Smart Factoriesâ„¢ IoT Solution

Provides a 360-degree View of the Factory with Analytics to Improve Productivity and Safety

ROCKVILLE, Md., May 11, 2021 - Zyter, Inc., a leading digital health and IoT-enablement platform, announced today the launch of Zyter Smart Factories™, an end-to-end intelligent solution that connects factory floor machinery, workers, and building systems using the latest Internet of Things (IoT) technology devices on Zyter's digital transformation platform.


Zyter Smart Factories is a component of the Zyter SmartSpaces IoT platform. Trusted by Qualcomm® to be the foundation of its Smart Cities Accelerator Program, the Zyter SmartSpaces Platform breaks down silos of information by integrating and consolidating data from IoT devices and applications in a seamless interface.

Zyter Smart Factories gives manufacturers a 360-degree view of what is happening across the entire factory floor using a network of connected devices and sensors, including safety equipment worn by workers. IoT sensors send alerts and notifications on worker safety issues, authorization breaches, machinery utilization, and asset monitoring to the Zyter Smart Factories dashboard. Zyter Smart Factories translates this data to analytics to help manufacturers understand factory productivity and safety metrics, as well as gain insight into other metrics related to factory management, operations and efficiency improvements.

"Zyter Smart Factories meets the increasing demand from manufacturers for IoT technologies that help make the factory run more efficiently," said Sanjay Govil, founder and CEO of Zyter, Inc. "With the analytics gained from complete visibility of the factory floor, machinery monitoring, and worker tracking, manufacturers can make more informed decisions to make their factories smarter, safer, and more productive."

The key features of Zyter Smart Factories include:

• Factory Floor Productivity - Provides a continuous stream of real-time data from IoT devices on machinery, material and workers to enable factory managers to optimally plan production runs as well as monitor and quickly address events and incidents to avoid safety issues or loss of productivity.

• Worker Safety and Tracking - Detects and alerts whenever workers remove hard hats, safety goggles, and other gear and also if workers enter unauthorized areas. Zyter Smart Factories can also send machine malfunction safety alerts to notify supervisors and on-site medical personnel to preempt any potential worker injury.

• Asset Tracking and Utilization - Provides real-time data on usage of high-value machinery in terms of running times, usage efficiency, energy consumption, and more. Zyter Smart Factories also has asset tracking capability to quickly locate manufacturing materials or mobile equipment, and send alerts if assets are being moved without authorization.

Ready for 5G connectivity, Zyter Smart Factories enables manufacturers of all sizes to easily upgrade from legacy hard-wired IT and Wi-Fi systems to a private 5G-enabled IT or cellular network that supports multiple IoT devices. Zyter partners with Qualcomm and other leading telecom companies to provide manufacturers with access to enhanced connectivity services.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
