Formula Management Software
NorthWind’s BatchLOGIX® formula management system delivers the precision your operation demands. Our system ensures accurate ingredient delivery while maintaining detailed records of every batch. Materials and finished products are mapped to specific containers, preventing cross-contamination and ensuring product integrity.
Integrate Micro Ingredient Batching
- Integrate hand adds into your formulas and pair with our BatchMATE hand add station to automate tracking and tracing of manually added ingredients.
- With BatchMATE, ingredient usage and lot numbers are scanned as they are weighed, eliminating the need for paper tracking systems.
Real-time Data at Your Fingertips
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) put your data into smart, usable dashboards that allow for smarter decision making. By digitizing workflows and automatically collecting data all plant personnel have real-time visibility into operations.
“The MES implementation has fundamentally changed how we approach manufacturing at Fairview Mills,” stated Darrin Hermesch, Director of Operations. “We’re now making decisions based on real-time data rather than gut feel, and our operators have the information they need at their fingertips. This digital foundation positions us for continued growth and efficiency improvements in the future.”
