Project Summary

The Challenge: A grain processing company in Sub-Saharan Africa faced significant inefficiencies in processing millet and rice, leading to high post-harvest losses. Existing machinery consumed excessive power and frequently broke down, resulting in high maintenance costs and production delays.

The Solution: Ismatic Engineering introduced its GrainMatic modular grain processing system. This AI-driven machine was customised for the client’s specific grain types and included features like real-time monitoring, intelligent parameter adjustment, and low power consumption. The modular design allowed for quick part replacement, reducing downtime.

The Outcome

The client achieved a 28% reduction in energy costs and a significant improvement in grain quality, with fewer impurities and minimal breakage. The modular design reduced downtime by 40%, ensuring continuous operations. These improvements enabled the company to increase its output and expand its market reach.
