Assess the Existing Operation

We begin by auditing your current facility workflow and identifying priority systems that offer the highest immediate return on integration.

Facility workflow • Existing controls • Equipment review

Connect Critical Systems

VinWizard bridges the gap between disparate equipment, from fermentation tanks to power and water utilities, creating a holistic data network.

Tanks • Cooling • Pumps • CO₂ • Utilities • Production equipment

Centralize Visibility & Control

Gain a single source of truth for your entire cellar operation. Monitor trends, receive proactive alerts, and control systems from any device.

Operational visibility • Alerts • Trend review • Centralized control

Start Focused. Expand Strategically.

Implementation doesn't require a total overhaul. We pilot specific projects first, ensuring success before scaling across the entire facility.

Pilot project • Phased integration • Scalable system planning

Legacy PLCs

Existing programmable logic controllers can be evaluated for direct integration, extending the life of current equipment.

Power Usage

Main electrical panels and high-draw equipment may support real-time monitoring to identify operational waste.

Where VinWizard Can Integrate

The power of VinWizard lies in its adaptability. It can help centralize data from a vast array of existing winery infrastructure, allowing for more informed decisions and automated efficiencies.

CO₂ Monitoring

Sensors for carbon dioxide can assist in automated ventilation protocols, enhancing safety and environment stability.

Water Management

Flow meters and water-use systems can integrate to centralize facility-wide sustainability tracking.

Glycol Systems

Chiller and glycol distribution pumps can be monitored to optimize cooling cycles and reduce energy load peaks.

Pumps & Valves

Variable frequency drives and automated valves can be networked for centralized movement and pressure control.

Pump-Over Controls

Automated pump-over routines can be programmed to match specific winemaking styles without manual intervention.

Barrel Room Climate

Humidification and auxiliary cooling systems in aging rooms can help maintain consistent long-term maturation conditions.
