Tank Assure
Automatic Milk Sampling System with RFID and GPS technology
Tank Assure
Accurate data of the milk quantity and temperature collected by milk tankers from various milk collection points on different routes, is an essential piece of information in the milk value chain. Even minor deviations from the expected milk quantity may hinder effectiveness and profitability of the entire chain of milk sample collection process.
Prompt has leveraged the RFID and GPS technology, and developed a solution for automatic milk sampling – Prompt TankAssure. Prompt TankAssure is a closed, containerized and digitally password protected system which consists of 6+1 / 14+1 sampling pumps, and RFID tagged tamper-proof sample vials. It comes in the form of a box which is mounted on the milk tanker, and functions to automatically collect BMC milk samples, record milk quantity (through magnetic flow meter) and milk temperature (through in-built temperature sensor).
Key Features
