One platform watches the whole plant: cook and chill temperatures on the line, cold storage rooms and freezers, and the refrigeration and utility systems behind them. Alarms reach the right phone in seconds, and the HACCP record builds itself.

Most food and beverage plants monitor the line from the HMI, the cold rooms from OEM dataloggers, and the utilities from a third screen, with paper HACCP logs stitched over the top. Problems surface at the next check, after the batch is already at risk.
Production lines, cold storage, and plant utilities on one screen, with the records your food safety plan requires built automatically.
ControlCom Connect brings food and beverage manufacturing monitoring onto one platform. Pre-built connectors for Modbus TCP/RTU, OPC UA, EtherNet/IP, BACnet, and MQTT read the PLCs on your lines, the temperature probes in your cook, chill, and storage steps, and the controllers on your refrigeration and utility systems. Everything lands in the same dashboards, alarms, and reports, on the edge-to-cloud stack described in the platform overview.
HACCP temperature monitoring runs continuously instead of once per check. Set thresholds at each critical control point, and the platform logs every reading, fires SMS and push alerts the moment a value drifts out of range, and records who acknowledged the alarm and when. Cold storage monitoring covers walk-ins, blast chillers, and freezer rooms in the same view. Plants that also run retail or distribution networks extend the same platform with refrigeration monitoring across their sites, and regulated pharmaceutical storage is covered under cold chain monitoring.
The same data runs the performance program. Downtime is captured from live machine state, OEE is computed per line and shift, and energy dashboards surface refrigeration and scheduling waste. That gives the plant the levers behind equipment performance and the evidence behind regulatory compliance from one data set.
Six capabilities that replace the clipboard, the datalogger portal, and the end-of-shift spreadsheet.
Cook, chill, hold, and storage temperatures logged continuously from calibrated 4-20mA, RTD, and thermocouple probes, plus Modbus, BACnet, and MQTT devices. Every reading is timestamped and kept, not sampled once per check.
One platform reads the PLCs on the line, the refrigeration controllers, and the building systems over Modbus TCP/RTU, OPC UA, EtherNet/IP, BACnet, and MQTT. Mixed-vendor plants land on one screen without a rip-and-replace project.
Per-asset thresholds, severity tiers, and escalation paths deliver SMS, push, and email in parallel. The edge gateway evaluates thresholds locally, so alarms fire even when the plant loses its internet connection.
Any dashboard exports as a PDF for any historical date range, with pre-built templates for HACCP and FDA reporting and scheduled delivery to the QA distribution list.
Downtime is detected from live machine state and rolled into a Pareto, and OEE is computed per line, shift, and product. Short stops and slow cycles that never reach the clipboard show up where the team can act on them.

The whole plant, on one platform. Production lines are read directly from the PLCs over Modbus TCP/RTU, OPC UA, and EtherNet/IP, so run state, counts, and process temperatures stream in live. Cold storage rooms, blast chillers, and freezers report through the calibrated probes and controllers you already own. Refrigeration systems, boilers, and building equipment connect over BACnet and MQTT. All of it lands in the same asset hierarchy, so a dashboard can show one line, one room, one building, or the whole site, and an alarm on any point follows the same thresholds, severity tiers, and escalation paths. The practical difference is that the line, the cold rooms, and the utilities stop living on three separate screens: when a chill cell drifts, the shift lead, the refrigeration tech, and QA are all looking at the same record.
Start with one line or one cold room. We onboard the existing PLCs, probes, and controllers, configure the alarms and HACCP-ready reports your QA team needs, and run alongside your current process for ninety days. No rip-and-replace. No cutover risk. Expand across the plant on your schedule.
