The dairy industry relies on essential pre- and post-cleaning chemicals to sanitize cows before milking. One Walchem customer services approximately seventy dairies in the western U.S., each using four to six different cleaning chemicals. Some dairies house up to 10,000 cows, with each cow milked three times daily, leading to substantial chemical consumption. Running out of these chemicals would halt cleaning procedures, causing milk production losses.

The Intuition-9 controller, combined with ultrasonic tank level sensors, offers an advanced remote monitoring solution. It provides real-time, accurate chemical level data, eliminating the need for physical inventory checks, reducing travel time and increasing operator safety. Tank level data optimizes tanker routes, reducing transportation inefficiencies and allowing redistribution of undelivered products to other sites. Remote monitoring and automated reporting enhance plant production planning. Additionally, the Walchem Fluent platform supports multiple user levels with tiered access permissions, allowing companies to effectively manage operations across multiple locations. Administrators can assign user roles based on responsibilities, ensuring that employees only access the data and controls relevant to their duties. This enhances security, prevents unauthorized adjustments, and streamlines workflow by enabling site-specific or company-wide oversight.

With increasing logistics challenges, Intuition-9 delivers a smarter, more efficient approach to chemical inventory management in the dairy industry.
