Cooking / Boiling Monitoring

Cooking / Boiling Monitoring

Precision Cooking Starts with Data. Control It All with Afisol.

Cooking is one of the most critical stages in many manufacturing processes—whether it’s seafood, vegetables, or ingredients for prepared foods. It’s also where the highest variability and losses can occur. That’s why Afisol’s Cooking / Boiling Monitoring system gives you full visibility and control over every batch.

From weighing raw materials before cooking, to tracking trays and baskets, to measuring post-cooking weight loss, our solution ensures consistency, traceability, and optimization—in real time.

🔍 What We Monitor & Record

✅ Pre-Cooking Weight & Traceability

  • Integrates directly with digital weigh scales.
  • Records the input weight before cooking.
  • Associates weight with operator, tray/basket ID, cooker number, and timestamp.
  • All entries are traceable and linked to production orders.

🍳 Operator + Cooker Mapping

  • Each entry is tagged with who cooked it and which cooker was used.
  • Enables performance benchmarking across cookers and staff.
  • Helps detect recurring inefficiencies in specific cookers or teams.

📋 Cooking Plan Configuration

  • Set planned cooking time, temperature, and optional parameters (e.g., pressure or humidity).
  • Save and reuse standard cooking profiles by product or SKU.
  • Configure exceptions or tolerances for flexibility.

📊 Real-Time Monitoring & Graphs

  • Live dashboard shows current status of cookers and batch progress.
  • Compare planned vs. actual time and temperature graphs.
  • Flag variations and generate automatic alerts or logs for out-of-spec cooking

⚖️ Post-Cooking Weighing & Cooking Loss Analysis

  • Weigh the cooked product after the process.
  • System automatically calculates cooking loss and maps it against targets.
  • Helps track yield efficiency and raw material optimization.

📈 Benefits for Your Factory

  • Track cooking loss per batch, per cooker, or per operator
  • Identify which inputs lead to higher yield or lower loss
  • Pinpoint quality issues before they affect the next stage
  • Standardize cooking across shifts and staff
  • Ensure traceability for audits and quality management systems

🧠 Example Use Cases

  • Seafood: Monitor fish weight before and after boiling to track shrinkage and optimize cooking duration.
  • Ready-to-eat meals: Standardize ingredient pre-cook weight and detect overcooked batches.
  • Vegetable processing: Benchmark water loss in boiling to improve shelf life and taste.

🎯 Built to Adapt

Whether you cook with manual controls or automated cookers, Afisol’s Smart Factory platform fits into your process. We integrate with your equipment, use your terminology, and give you the insights you need to improve every batch.
