A UNIQUE VINE TO THE CELLAR PLATFORM

The new unique PELLENC CONNECT platform for monitoring vineyard and winery equipment is now available.

PELLENC CONNECT facilitates users’ tasks and optimises the use of vineyard equipment through the visualisation of machine, agronomic and oenological data in real time. This new platform optimises the organisation of operations from the vineyard to the winery and allows faster machine interventions. PELLENC CONNECT helps users better understand their production and raise their objectives in terms of the final product.

In 2021, we will integrate control and monitoring of the thermoregulation of the vats as well as the monitoring of all cold production and distribution in the cellar. We will be able to remotely program the set temperatures and be alerted by SMS in case of a fault. This will give us the necessary responsiveness to monitor fermentation and avoid any problems with the wines.

Remote Monitoring

The PELLENC CONNECT platform allows users to remotely monitor equipment in the vineyard and in the cellar.

Remote viewing on tablet, PC or smartphone for simplified working.

Thanks to the real-time visualisation of the machines, the user can be informed of their status and thus change the settings remotely.

PELLENC CONNECT delivers optimisation from the vineyard to the cellar.

INFORMATION IN REAL-TIME

With PELLENC CONNECT, the user is alerted in the event of a fault on one of the machines.

A log of use and settings is available for each machine for better traceability and technical and economic analysis.

The user can see:

• Agronomic and oenological data: yield maps, plant vigour maps, pressing curves and fermentation monitoring curves.

• The status of equipment and the follow-up of the production stages.

• Maintenance intervals for each machine.

Optimal Reactivity

PELLENC CONNECT links the PELLENC Vineyard to the Cellar experts to the users in order to improve the reactivity of the services in case of need.

In case of an alarm on one of the machines, PELLENC CONNECT informs the user as well as the PELLENC experts.

Thanks to this information, the technicians can carry out a remote diagnosis if necessary and, if needed, transmit a request for intervention to the after-sales service to provide support as quickly as possible.

PELLENC CONNECT offers proximity anywhere and information exchange.

Expert Help At Hand

PELLENC CONNECT offers vine growers, oenologists and cellar managers a precise and unique expertise thanks to the information from the equipment but also agronomic and oenological data. Experts will provide personalised advice on how to optimise the use of the machines.

Pellenc Connect

The link between the vineyard and the winery is strengthened by this platform. PELLENC CONNECT offers users peace of mind while optimising their business. PELLENC CONNECT optimises the management of equipment and the monitoring of operations from the vineyard to the wine cellar.

The Pellenc Connect Platform Strengthens The Link Between The Vineyard And The Winery

• Information sharing to simplify the management of supply flows (e.g. optimising the filling of tanks and presses)

• Remote monitoring of equipment use

• Remote visualisation of the settings of the equipment in the distributor fleet, as well as diagnostic data

• Visualisation of all process information

• Reminder of maintenance intervals

• Fault alerts

• Log of the use of equipment and associated settings in order to be able to carry out a technical and economic analysis "from vineyard to tank"

The Particularities

Specific features of OPTIMUM multifunction carriers

• Geolocation

• Screen-sharing

• Customisable alerts

• Yield maps: during the harvest, continuous weighing of the mass of grapes harvested in each area of the plot makes it possible to obtain a yield map.

• Vigour mapping: this is generated during pre-pruning, thanks to the sensor used on VISIO for automatic opening at the post on the TLVP pre-pruner.

For cold production and temperature control

• Remote temperature control for tank temperature control

• Display of information on cold production and distribution

For pressing

• Information on the status of the press and the remaining time

• History and export of pressing curves for process analysis and optimisation

Services For Distributors

Remote viewing and supervision of the distributor's equipment, as well as diagnostic data and machine settings.

ACCESS TO ESSENTIAL INFORMATION FOR HIGH-QUALITY ADVICE

• Access to remote settings and diagnostic data of connected equipment worldwide to support after sales services.

• Analysis of pressing curves to optimise programs according to the expected oenological results.
