Jiwei Automations Enhances Brewery Production with Smart Automation Solutions | IoT Integration and Technical Support
In April 2026, the technical team from Shenzhen Jiwei Automations Ltd. successfully visited a well-known large brewery in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region to conduct technical support and exchange activities. The purpose of this visit was to provide the brewery with technical consulting and customized solutions, discussing opportunities for improvement in level and inventory control, as well as production line optimization. Jiwei’s technical team shared their expertise and best practices in the field of automation, helping the brewery better understand how automation technology can improve production efficiency and stability.
Through in-depth discussions, Jiwei Automations demonstrated its technological advantages in the food and beverage industry, laying a solid foundation for future potential collaborations. The customer highly appreciated the professional guidance and advice provided by the technical team, believing that this support will contribute to further optimizing and upgrading their production line.
Strengthening Collaboration to Support Automation Upgrades
The brewery visited during this activity is a leading large-scale beer producer in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region, with an annual beer production capacity of millions of tons, distributing products both domestically and internationally. As the brewery continues to expand its production scale, there are growing demands for the precision, stability, and automation level of its production equipment, especially in terms of liquid level and inventory control in the production process. The beer production process covers several stages, from raw material handling and mashing to fermentation, filtration, and packaging. Each stage requires high-precision, high-stability equipment to ensure product quality and production efficiency.
Against this backdrop, Jiwei Automations leveraged its technological strengths in industrial automation to provide the brewery with a range of automation solutions, particularly for liquid level and inventory monitoring, offering precise product recommendations and technical support. Through this exchange, Jiwei shared its professional experience in production line optimization and automation control, helping the brewery improve automation levels in various production stages and further optimize production efficiency and product quality. The customer recognized the technical solutions provided by Jiwei and expressed strong interest in future potential collaborations.
During the technical exchange, Jiwei introduced its flagship products in the field of liquid and inventory detection: the Tuning Fork Level Switch (Ring-11 Series) and Tuning Fork Inventory Switch (Fork-11 Series). These products have been widely applied in various stages of the brewery’s production process, including mashing fermentation, storage tanks, and the ingredient system.
Jiwei Automation Solutions Ensure Continuity in Beer Production Lines
The Tuning Fork Level Switch (Ring-11 Series) employs unique tuning fork vibration technology, enabling precise monitoring of liquid level changes. Its core advantage lies in effectively preventing the adverse impact of level fluctuations on the production process, ensuring accuracy in level monitoring. In the mashing fermentation stage, the Ring-11 Tuning Fork Level Switch can continuously monitor liquid level changes in the fermentation tank, helping operators precisely control liquid height during fermentation, thus ensuring the stability and consistency of the brewing process. Additionally, the Ring-11 Tuning Fork Level Switch is applied in filtration tanks, storage tanks, and other stages, ensuring accurate liquid level management in beer production.
The Tuning Fork Inventory Switch (Fork-11 Series) is widely used in material silos, raw material ingredient systems, and solid material layers in fermentation tanks. This series of products uses the tuning fork vibration principle to precisely monitor inventory changes in solid materials, ensuring accuracy in ingredient systems and production stability. Especially in malt silos and syrup storage tanks, the Fork-11 Tuning Fork Inventory Switch can monitor material levels in real-time, preventing shortages of raw materials that could halt production and ensuring continuous operation. Moreover, the Fork-11 Tuning Fork Inventory Switch has strong anti-interference capabilities, enabling it to adapt to complex environments in the brewery, such as humidity and dust, ensuring stable operation.
Through the application of these high-precision, highly reliable devices, many breweries have successfully addressed issues such as level fluctuations and inventory anomalies in various production stages, significantly improving production efficiency and reducing production downtime due to equipment failure or operational errors. These devices have played an essential role in key stages such as mashing fermentation, filtration, and storage, while also optimizing raw material management and ingredient processes, further enhancing the automation level and overall stability of production lines.
Customized Technical Support and Training
In addition to recommending equipment and providing technical consulting, Jiwei also offered customized technical support and training services for the brewery. To help the brewery better understand and apply the Tuning Fork Level Switch and Tuning Fork Inventory Switch, Jiwei organized technical training sessions. The training covered topics such as installation, commissioning, operational methods, troubleshooting, and daily maintenance, helping the customer gain a deeper understanding of how the devices work and their applications in production.
This training placed a strong emphasis on practicality. Jiwei’s technical team conducted detailed demonstrations on-site and provided feasible solutions to common issues encountered in the production process. Through systematic training, the brewery’s operators not only mastered the use of the Tuning Fork Level Switch and Tuning Fork Inventory Switch, but also improved their daily maintenance and troubleshooting skills. After the training, the customer reported that operating the equipment had become much simpler, and the speed of troubleshooting had been significantly improved, ensuring the efficiency of production.
Improving Production Efficiency and Optimizing Automation Solutions
According to feedback from the brewery, technical support and automation solutions played a key role in enhancing production efficiency. In the mashing fermentation and ingredient silo stages, the professional technical advice provided helped improve liquid level and inventory management. Particularly, the recommendation of the Tuning Fork Level Switch and Inventory Switch effectively reduced the impact of liquid level fluctuations on the production process and avoided production stoppages due to raw material shortages.
The customer also stated that the technical team’s training helped them quickly grasp the skills required for equipment commissioning and maintenance, significantly improving on-site management efficiency. Moreover, the smooth progress of the project startup and efficient commissioning process helped the customer optimize their production processes in a short amount of time.
