ALTEK CASTING CO.
Altek chose KIO (Klemsan Internet Objects) Platform for Industry 4.0 applications!

Altek Dokum is a manufacturing company specialized in copper and copper alloyed rolled
semi-finished products since 1971. Altek Dokum has a wide range of products including
copper and copper alloyed strips, sheets, discs, special alloyed products, coin blanks and
case cups. Altek supplies with its products the sectors such as electric, electronic, automotive,
textile, sanitary systems, automation sectors, construction, roofing and cladding, defense
industry and mints.

Altek has been using KIO since 2016 to monitor the energy spent in production processes
and to report all these energy consumption in a reliable and easy way.

Prior to KIO implementation, the machines were shut down 10 minutes early for the sake of
data collection for the energy consumption reports to be submitted to the general manager.
Instant and reliable data tracking was the first benefit gained by Altek. Thanks to KIO, Altek
monitors all production departments on machine basis.

Altek production facilities have SCADA software to monitor energy, but KIO brings a single
solution that enables efficient use of energy in general without being limited to energy
monitoring, thanks to its advanced reporting functions and user-friendly interfaces. Thus,
operational efficiency is continuously increased.

14
AIM OF THE PROJECT
To keep the reactive consumption below the limits in order to avoid any legal penalties,
To see the operation time of the production line and to follow the failures and downtimes
easily,
To be able to monitor consumption data and harmonic levels instantly and accurately.

BENEFITS

When the specified alarm conditions occur, information is sent to the defined users via
e-mail, maintenance teams are directed to the malfunctions very quickly and sometimes
even serious penalties are avoided. For example, there was no production for one week for
maintenance purposes. During this process, it was noticed by e-mail from KIO that some
of the machines in the factory were left open and the reactive rate limit was about to be
exceeded, so that they went to the factory and intervened immediately.

Savings on the labor force to collect consumption data were achieved.

Preventive maintenance projects can be done for some machines by following the determined
parameters.

BUSINESS NEED
Utility costs are often overlooked in cost saving projects in big food chains.
Unneeded gas or electric burners, hoods, fryers and ovens can use thousands of dollars
in wasted energy each year. Before targeting to minimize all utility costs, all you need is to
increase the monitorability and the operational efficiency.
For example, freezer doors are opened and closed several times during a busy day, and if the
door stays open, a lot of energy is lost. With KIO platform, you can monitor how long the door
is left open.
Turning off unnecessary fryers, burners or ovens during off-peak times, and controlling

HVAC according to the number of customers in the restaurant would help a lot to
minimize losses, improve efficiency and overall profitability.

25
SOLUTION

Burger King adopted and configured KIO (Klemsan Internet of Objects:

Basic module + Invoicing module) platform to focus on the energy consumption of all the
below items in an initial study consisting of 250 restaurants
in 25 cities:
Production line: Fryers, burners, ovens
HVAC: Heating, ventilation and cooling
Refrigeration
Air compressor
Lighting

Human counting camera system, which provides accurate number of

KORMETAL LIGHT ALLOY WHEELS

KIO (Klemsan Internet Objects) Platform accelerates KORMETAL’S path to digital

transformation!
Kormetal has been manufacturing light alloy wheels by combining its knowledge gained over 40 years
with qualified manpower and advanced technology. Kormetal, being the market leader in Turkish market,
has been selling wheels to more than 40 countries with its production approach with no compromise
in quality.
Today, Kormetal has an aluminum processing capacity of 5,000 tons/ year and its casting sites operates
in two main departments as rim and injection molding.
In Kormetal production premises, mainly thermoregulators (mold conditioners), injection machines,
dosing furnaces, presses and compressors make up about 70% of the total energy consumption of
the factory. Each machine, whose daily energy consumption exceeds 30kWh, is integrated into KIO
Platform and total consumption of 14.000kWh is instantly monitored.
Before the implementation of KIO, daily consumption data was collected and recorded manually by
operators in a 4-man-hour time period and data control could not be performed. The project pays for
itself in a period of 8 months when you consider only the hourly wages of the operators who
collect and enter the data. Furthermore, thanks to the analysis provided by the Advanced Monitoring
Module, new energy projects were initiated within the factory.
In addition, KIO avoids possible malfunctions by means of alarm warnings in case of
over-current conditions.
Mr. Ahmet Canat, R & D Manager at Kormetal, manages the KIO project and says: “Thanks to the
renewals made in the pumps, we achieved a 50% saving in the particular unit and a 2%
reduction in total factory energy consumption. Thanks to KIO, we have started many more energy
efficiency projects in our factory and our R&D team is following the results with enthusiasm.”

45
AIM OF THE PROJECT
To monitor the energy consumption values in real time and instantaneously, by avoiding
potential mistakes of operators,
To access reliable data in order to identify projects that will increase operational efficiency,
To increase energy efficiency indices by determining main consumption
expenses.
Solution: KIO Standard Module, Advanced Monitoring Module
Number of measurement points: 69

BENEFITS
The process of noting the indices on the papers by visiting the electricity meters one
by one is eliminated. Hence, 4 hours of labor savings were achieved.

In case of over-current conditions, quick intervention is possible thanks to KIO’s alarm

management.

Relevant parameters can be monitored for preventive maintenance.

With the help of Advanced Monitoring Module, energy efficiency and unit cost
calculation can be made in addition to comparisons on organizational, device or device
group basis.

SOLAR ENERGY
SYSTEMS

KIO (Klemsan Internet Objects) Platform

51
KIO HELPS YOUR GROWTH IN SOLAR ENERGY WITH PROACTIVE
MONITORING

Solar, being the fastest-growing renewable energy source in the world, can be a challenge
for energy companies when it comes to management. More installations mean more
points to monitor and guarantee. By using KIO (Klemsan Internet Objects) in solar energy,
you can simplify both monitoring and maintenance processes.

First of all, you need to connect solar panels to the utility grid and install sensors on
panels to monitor their performance and provide real-time insight to site management
teams. With a fully integrated system ensuring the connectivity of energy analyzers,
gateways and cellular modules, KIO is designed to tell you real-time whether your solar
station is delivering sufficient energy levels and maintaining load balance on the grid.

The main benefit of using KIO in solar energy is that you can see exactly what’s happening
in your solar station from one central control panel either through your computer or mobile
devices. By connecting your devices to a cloud network and KIO’s alarm management,
you can identify the location of the problem and dispatch a technician to fix it before it
disrupts your entire system.

Another contribution from KIO platform to energy industry firms is in the realm of
predictive analytics. Since the sensors collect huge amount of data, companies can use
those information streams to gain more oversight over their installations.

52
NO MORE EFFICIENCY LOSSES IN SOLAR POWER PLANTS THANKS
TO THE INTEGRATION BETWEEN KIO PLATFORM AND BATTERY
MONITORING SYSTEM!
Since solar power plants are generally distant from residential areas and batteries are
not properly monitored; in case of a failure, transportation, and repair processes are
unplanned and inadequate. With Battery Monitoring System offered by KLEMSAN, you
can instantly measure the temperature, voltage, current and internal resistances of each
battery and prevent a potential failure with the alarm you will assign.
Generally, in off-grid solar projects, the charge-discharge and current information of
the batteries are read through the inverter. However, these applications provide general
information about battery groups and do not contain specific information for individual
batteries. Since the problem with a battery is compensated by another one, in the long
run errors trigger other failures and may cause other faults due to overloads. In this case,
in case of a failure in the system, where monitoring is done on battery group basis, you
may encounter much bigger problems, not only a battery failure.
With Battery Monitoring System, you can detect the source of the problem in advance
and take precautions, and prevent failures from triggering and propagating larger ones.
Since the communication between Central Unit and the modules, where DAM and
IDAM batteries (charge / discharge and current-voltage) are read, is wireless, it is very
convenient and practical for both operation and installation.

53
By transferring the information to KIO, the system is centralized and the status of the
batteries is notified to the relevant users. Since this tracking is web-based, users can
access it via their mobile devices.

CU (Central Unit): Collects and stores the DAM & IDAM data and directs them to
KIO platform , manages the communication with the PC and sends SMS/E-Mail
notifications.

DAM (Data Acquisition Module): Measures the voltage, temperature and internal
resistance of the battery and stores the most significant data until the next reading by
the CU. All data are time stamped.

IDAM (Current Acquisition Module): Measures the current of a battery or a string of

batteries, in conjunction with a Hall effect current clamp
(factory provided). It stores the most significant data until the next reading by the CU.
All data are time stamped.

quality tobacco production with its continuous investment philosophy.

The company’s main goal while implementing KIO platform in its facilities was to monitor
and minimize energy consumption and to set up a compensation monitoring system. In
addition to these main benefits, thanks to KIO, they were able to detect a short circuit-
related problem in the compensation board, replaced the defective product and eventually
eliminated the risk of fire.

AIM OF THE PROJECT
To monitor the energy consumption values in real time for the purpose of taking
precautions in advance.
To keep track of the water meter instantly and continuously, during working time,
downtime and holidays.
To make an automatic compensation control instead of manual one.
To observe the battery status of forklifts in charging stations.
To continuously monitor ambient temperature and humidity for healthy storage conditions.

Solution: KIO Basic Module, Klemsan Rapidus Reactive Power Control Relay

Benefits:
The process of noting the indices on the papers by visiting the electricity meters one by
one is eliminated. Hence, half-day labor savings were achieved. Besides, thanks to the mail
and alarm warning system, interventions can be done quickly.
Excess use of electricity and water is prevented on a large scale.
With the help of Rapidus Reactive Power Control Relay, life of the capacitors are
monitored. is used to monitor capacitor life. By following the number of switches for each
step, the adhesion of contactors is prevented. Thus, KIO platform also provides support for
preventive maintenance.

ABOUT YÖRÜKOĞLU MILK AND DAIRY PRODUCTS
INDUSTRY AND TRADING INC.
Yörükoğlu has chosen KIO to increase energy efficiency both in its production
facilities and in cold storage in its digital transformation journey!

Yörükoğlu ranks among Turkey’s top 500 industrial giants for the last 8 years, offering
a wide range of delicacies from ayran to yogurt, cheese to butter with more than 700 employees
and advanced technology on a total area of 35,000 m2 including 15,000 m2 indoor and 20,000
m2 closed premises. Started its industrial production in 1976, Yörükoğlu has now turned into one
of the Mediterranean’s largest milk and dairy product manufacturers.
The main purposes of implementing KIO platform in Yörükoğlu’s both production premises and
cold storage warehouses were to minimize energy consumption with instantaneous tracking
and to make the compensation control in a more systematic way. Yörükoğlu was freed from the
compensation penalties he had suffered in the past. In addition to that, they avoided bigger failures
by detecting the smaller ones thanks to the alarm system. Besides, they managed to trace the
temperature values instantly with the help of the sensors installed in the cold storage warehouses.

AIM OF THE PROJECT

To adapt an automatic compensation control system instead of a manual one
To follow the energy consumption values in real time so that they can take preacutions
in advance
Solution: KIO Standard Module, Sensor and I/O Module
Number of measurement points: 100

62
BENEFITS
The process of noting the indices on the paper by visiting the electricity meters one by
one is eliminated. Compensation tracking of the warehouses located in geographically
dispersed areas was collected on a single platform. In addition, thanks to the mail and
alarm warning system, interventions can be done quickly.

For even more healthy storage conditions, ambient temperature information is also monitored
via the KIO platform.
