Case Study - Productivity Benefits of Digital Twins - Stara Tractors

 

Industrial Engineering Case Studies Collection

Stara: 


Brazil-based tractor manufacturer Stara uses digital twins. 

Its tractors have IoT sensors that maintain the digital twins. The company increases equipment performance with digital twins. With real-time visibility into how its tractors operate, Stara can proactively prevent equipment malfunctions and improve asset uptime. 

The company has also leveraged the digital twin features to create new business models. IoT sensors collect data on weather conditions and soil condition. Based on that data specific to a farm area,  Stara launched a profitable new service that provides farmers with real-time insight detailing the optimal conditions for planting crops and improving farm yield. Farmers have reduced seed use by 21% and fertilizer use by 19% due to this  Stara’s service.

What the digital twin of a tractor will indicate. The improper use of the tractor. The deterioration of components.

Telemetria Stara

Planning

Telemetria Stara allows the farmer to monitor and know exactly what the settings are on a particular machine. At any given time, you can check a vehicle’s path tracking, status, speed, date and time, fuel consumption, engine temperature, and machine hour meter. Telemetria Stara helps you on planning job logistics, optimizing the fleet, reducing costs, and avoiding waste and losses.

Dosage and Overlap

Through the dosage map, it is possible to identify whether the machine is applying the desired amounts, as previously planned. Through Telemetria Stara, the farmer can also monitor overlaps, avoiding the waste of input and resources, bringing additional improvements regarding sustainability.

Industrial Engineering and Digital Twins


Industrial engineers have to use digital twins in computer aided industrial engineering. Prof. Narayana Rao included digital twins as enabling technology for computer aided industrial engineering. The concept computer aided industrial engineering was presented by Narayana Rao in the 2021 Annual Conference of IISE.
