Do you want to know how your competitors are getting ahead of you with fast and good-quality production? Seems like magic but it’s technology instead. Many big industrialists have adopted advanced technology in their automotive plants i.e., Machine Vision System. A technology based on AI (Artificial Intelligence) ensures they get the best production. In contrast to traditional inspection methods, where nothing can be done without human assistance, a Defect Detection System ensures you get consistency of work with no human interference. Traditional inspection methods are prone to various challenges such as: Inconsistency in inspection due to different perceptions and environmental factors. Too much floor space coverage which leads to accidental bumping and slow item transfer. Accidental bumping may cause conflicts among workers. The absence of workers hampers consistency of work. Human eyes may miss certain defaults. Delay in reporting is common in human-based inspection. Traditional inspection cannot match the efficiency of the machine. The Machine Vision System, on all levels, is better. It ensures more fluency, speed, and quality than the old-school methodologies. Manufacturing Defect Detection Ensures Threefold ROI With greater accuracy, consistency, low-to-no human dependency, and greater speed, the Machine Vision System can bring you three times more ROI (Return on Investment). Consistency of work: One of the major benefits Manufacturing Inspection Software provides is consistency. Even if your staff is absent, the flow of work remains consistent, 24/7. This technology helped during the most unexpected times i.e., the COVID pandemic. Low risk of errors: The risk of errors declines with a low human interference rate. Hence, you can get speedy and error-free production to provide defect-proof items to the customers. Free floor space: With less human dependency, the floor space remains free which leads to a smoother flow of moving goods. Furthermore, there are extremely low risks of employees bumping into one another and getting involved in unnecessary fights. Fast Reporting: The machine flashes an alert as soon as there is a defective product on the conveyor belt. It is much faster than a human-based inspection. How Does Machine Vision System Work? A Vision Inspection System relies on digital sensors protected within the industrial camera. It acquires images and specified optics to let the software and computer hardware analyze, process, and calculate different characteristics to support final decisions. An AI-based Machine Vision Inspection such as the Vision Intelligence System by Trident Information Systems does not need consistent modifications as it can detect defects with accuracy in a similar environment. It successfully eliminates human interference and allows an ongoing, 24/7, and accurate quality inspection. How Vision Intelligence System Detects Defects with Consistency? Being one of the most competitive industries, automotive manufacturers require technology that rockets them ahead in the competition. The Machine Vision System can be their knight in shining armor. It can detect: Visual defect detections: dents, scratches, burr, and chips. Dimensions: dimensional accuracy i.e., if a product is in the right shape and size. Spectrum monitoring: it checks if the product is in the right spectrum of color or not. Labeling: Detects if the labels are present in the right place. Barcodes: OCR/ DMC/QR/ Barcode reading etc. Measure, gauge, guide measures the angle of O tips, dimensions of the outer and inner diameters of O rings, as well as the edges and label positions. Why Vision Intelligence System? Trident’s Vision Intelligence System ensures a tangible and valuable Manufacturing Intelligence System which helps produce better quality products and processes. The best part is it minimizes waste by providing valuable insights into how you can enhance your quality with the least wastage. Furthermore, you can get a lot of tangible and intangible benefits such as: Interpretation of upcoming defects and aids in preventing delays Identifies the cause of an issue and optimizes resources.

Tips to Run a Cloud Kitchen Business Owing to the numerous benefits of running a delivery-oriented restaurant model, a profusion of food service participants like established restaurant chains, aspiring food startups, hospitality firms, and venture capitalists are investing in cloud kitchens. #1 Manage your Orders Under a Unified Platform The Cloud Kitchen concept relies heavily on online channels like apps, websites, food aggregators, social media, and call center panels to receive their orders. In this case, it becomes harder for cloud kitchens to manage their orders manually. Your Cloud Kitchen would most probably cover most of the platforms, and entering order details manually in the POS can be exhausting. Therefore, it is advisable to invest in a centralized ordering platform that tracks and maintains your orders from different sources and channels. #2 Optimally Execute Your Food Delivery Operations Since delivery business revolves around efficient process implementation and a proper reporting structure for maximum profit. Make sure your operations starting from picking an order to preparing and delivering to the customer must be warped around the targeted time optimally. To maximize your restaurants’ outreach and visibility, make sure you list your restaurant to the major food aggregating platforms such as Swiggy, Zomato, Foodpanda, etc. apart from this you can also use your website or launch an app to take orders so you could increase your reach even more.

Generate staffing plans and staff schedules following the sales trends. #4 Execute a Consistent Delivery Procedure As a Delivery oriented restaurant with, inability to keep up with the standardized preparation and delivery time, you can compromise with your goodwill. Considering that cloud kitchens do not leave a scope to directly get in touch with the customers, the operator must deliver a high standard of service. Make sure your in-house or outsourced delivery staff is well-informed about the delivery routes. your kitchen must follow the protocols of order preparations within the deadline so the delivery person could straight away pick the order and deliver it to the respective customer. #5 Automate as Much as You Can Technological automation can greatly contribute to your cloud kitchen’s efficiency and overall growth. This business type focuses on increasing orders followed by their food production; therefore, automation tools can highly impact the businesses. Apart from speeding up food production, they minimize manual efforts. #6 Ensure Top Quality Services Ensuring A-level services is not necessarily a dine-in restaurant’s domain. As a cloud kitchen, you can ensure top-quality services, all you need to do is take care of the essentials such as packaging options which apart from maintaining temperature, communicates the message of your brand.

Cloud Kitchen Technology / Trident Information Systems

About Cloud Kitchen Concept & Business Model Taking the scenario of online food industry, the introduction of cloud kitchens has boosted the online food ordering system. The word ‘Cloud Kitchen’ may sound new to you, but technology has evolved so rapidly that the Cloud Kitchen sector has become the most profitable based on the initial capital requirements, ROI, etc. We are offering Cloud Kitchen software to manage cloud kitchen operations effectively. Cloud Kitchen business model A Cloud Kitchen is primarily a restaurant kitchen that runs on its own or in a hub & spoke system. The main base or portal is primarily for taking online orders from various online food ordering sites and delivering them to the door. The concept of cloud kitchens has brought technological advancement and the opportunity to order food right from our fingertips. Functionality of cloud kitchen The Cloud Kitchen operates in a hub & spoke configuration as you can see from the image above. The key goal of the center is to accept online orders and deliver them to the customer from the nearest spoke. A spoke here is the base kitchen of the center where orders are routed and food is supplied from the nearest spoke kitchen. How Cloud Kitchen work As previously explained about Cloud Kitchen, a cloud kitchen works in a number of ways. Cloud kitchens may have their own order by setting up a website for their customer to place an order or an app to do the same. By registering with online food portals to accept orders such as Swiggy, Zomato, FoodPanda, Uber Eats, they will cover a quarter of customers and the other half of customers. Why you should invest in cloud kitchen If we think about Cloud Kitchens, there are a lot of reasons to open. A recent study from Limetray found that entrepreneurs would like to open a Cloud Kitchen over a dining-in restaurant as their next outlet. So, let me share some of the advantages of opening a cloud kitchen business. Scalability: Restaurant business model is the sort where, if a restaurant is going to boom in sales, immediate investment must be made to open a lot of franchises or improvisational outlets. In the same way, classic dining-in restaurants will take advantage of the cloud kitchen model to check their restaurant in new areas and demographics to get a answer from the end customer without spending a lot of money on investment. Exclusivity: If you consume media from the internet, just like Netflix originals & Amazon prime exclusives, the Cloud Kitchen business model gives you the opportunity to offer end-user exclusivity and create unique ideas that keep food buds engaged rather than the same old food recipes. Lower spending: the cloud kitchen model has much lower company expenditure and operating costs. Even, compared to classic dining at the restaurant location, there is no issue here that the cost is also that. There is also no major expenditure in ambience, signs, waiters, tables and chairs, etc. Competitive pricing: Now that we don’t need the requisite investments listed above, Cloud Kitchens can spend their key financial capital by creating new dishes, new menu items, different pricing and, most importantly, by growing their digital presence online. So if you are looking to manage cloud kitchen operations then Trident is offering cloud kitchen technology solution, you can contact with out consultant here
