Goal:
The WiTWINtake project aims to revolutionize the integration of grape production and winemaking processes by enhancing data management and information flow from the production and early processing stages. This project will significantly improve the winemaking process and traceability through advanced digital technologies. Key objectives include enhancing the connection between vineyard and winery information systems, automating grape intake quality detection with camera sensors, and utilizing standards-based digital twins for improved traceability from bottle to vineyard.
Necessity and Challenges:
Elmibit and PRONET, both leading software providers in the wine industry, recognize the critical need for improved integration of grape production and winemaking data. Elmibit specializes in software for grape production and early processing, while PRONET focuses on wine production. Both companies are committed to continuous improvement and innovation. The WiTWINtake project is crucial for piloting, demonstrating, and validating their state-of-the-art technologies in a real production environment. This collaboration aims to enhance data flow, improve administrative processes, and provide automated, high-quality grape intake assessments, ultimately benefiting the entire winemaking process.
Expected Benefits:
The WiTWINtake project promises substantial benefits for all involved stakeholders, driving innovation and efficiency in the wine industry.
For Elmibit: The project offers a valuable reference case for their novel technology, enhancing its deployment in operational environments. The demonstration and refinement of the solution will provide a solid foundation for further business development and expansion of their technological offerings.
For PRONET: Increased information flow from the vineyard to the winery will add significant value to their existing products. This project presents an opportunity for future product enhancements and integration, positioning PRONET as a leader in innovative wine production solutions.
For Radgonske Gorice: Piloting WiTWINtake solutions will streamline their processes, particularly in grape intake and quality control. The introduction of automated camera-based quality detection and improved data integration will enhance operational efficiency and product quality.
WiTWINtake is poised to set new standards in the wine industry by leveraging digital twin technology and advanced data management systems. This project exemplifies how collaboration and technological innovation can drive substantial improvements in wine production, ensuring better quality, efficiency, and traceability.
