Bakery Sample System

Welcome to the ARDI Bakery system.

This demo system provides a simple demo powered by a dynamic simulation of a process - an automated system that bakes a variety of cupcakes in small batch orders.

We've chosen a bakery because...

  • Cooking is a process understood by a large audience,
  • It has a number of elements that are common to industrial, manufacturing and refining applications,
  • It has easy-to-comprehend relationships between inputs (recipe, cooking time etc.) and results
Demonstrations

This application covers a variety of ARDIs capabilities, including...

  • Dynamic and Custom Dashboards,
  • Paper, Audio, Powerpoint & Regulatory Reporting,
  • Usage and Efficiency Analysis,
  • Diagnostics and Fault Finding
  • Recipe/Setup Suggestion & Defect Cause Detection,
  • Live, Local AI Anomaly Detection & Notification

Start out simply with our asset descriptions that combine hand (or AI) written asset descriptions with ARDI information to give you an easy introduction to the process.

Open Description

Get to know the basics of the process with our network graphs showing key relationships between sections of the process - such as how cakes move through the system, optionally with live data.

Open Graph

If you'd like to know more detail about how the system is structured, check out the connection diagrams or chord diagram that descibe how we organise all of the components of the process into a hierarchy

Want to know what we're cooking right now? Check out the bakery infographic or the Dashboard to see the current product being produced on the line.

Open Infographic

Feel like getting more technical? Our data explorer can look at what our oven is doing right now. Click Live in the top corner to look at other times and batches, see values across relationships or even the whole process.

Open Data Explorer

Want to know whats pulling the most power right now? The Distribution addon makes this easy - you can view any of your information based on location, type, batch, downtime vs production or shared values like flavour and filling.

Open Distribution

Time for a quick checkup? The FirstSite addon lets you run simple health checks across your ARDI system to check for data issues or control problems.

Open FirstSite

Want to keep an AI-powered eye on your process, 24-hours-a-day? Our anomaly detectors learn what 'normal' looks like for your assets, such as our main baking conveyor.

Open Anomaly Detector

Wondering how values are related? You can use scatter plots to help uncover what causes changes in the performance of the process. Use the 'Next' and 'Prev' buttons to compare product details vs conveyor speed.

Open Scatter Plots

Planning for future production? Take a look at which products were the most popular today in our reporting or any of our daily reports. You can even create reports as audio, videos and PowerPoint presentations.

Open Report

Want to use data in other applications? Along with our own query language and selectors, we offer access through our REST API, GraphQL and i3X. We also integrate directly with other products, like Grafana.

Open Grafana

You can use your ARDI data in a variety of different ways - such as utilisation analysis. Let's take a look at the run-time of our machines over the last hour.

Open Utilisation

We offer single-click analysis, alarm-suggestion and blind-spot detection based on your assets through your choice of Large Language Model, such as Claude, Copilot or Chat-GPT.

Want to use ARDI data with your Large Language Model, such as Claude, Chat-GPT or Copilot?

Add the ARDI demo MCP server at https://demo.optrix.com.au/mcpbake to unlock our data for use with your preferred AI chat system*.

Anthropic Claude allows one connection to an MCP server on their free tier. Most other vendors such as OpenAI and Microsoft require a paid subscription to use Model Context Protocol (MCP) services.
