Case Study: Arcoflex Automation Solutions achieves reduced costs and improved compliance through real-time monitoring with Microsoft Azure

Cloud-based automation for nurseries and hothouses to reduce cost, improve compliance

Arcoflex Automation Solutions created Arcoflex Sensei, an affordable, easy-to-install remote monitoring service for nurseries and hothouses. The industry was underserved by industrial automation—growers relied on infrequent manual checks that risked crop loss, high labor costs, and inadequate compliance reporting.

Sensei connects on-site sensors via a GSM controller to Microsoft Azure and Power BI, delivering real-time dashboards, SMS alerts and automated controls. The cloud-based system improved response times and data accuracy, lowered monitoring costs, enabled long-term analysis and biosecurity compliance, and helped growers avoid crop loss and increase profitability.
