Ever wondered how much power your machines are actually using? Now you can find out – easily, affordably and without the guesswork.
That is exactly what the Shoestring Power Monitoring (Basic) Kit does. Developed by IfM Engage, Shoestring provides SMEs with practical, low-risk digitalisation solutions that are easy to implement and affordable.
We recently set up a Shoestring Power Monitoring Kit on our 3D printer, and the results have been eye-opening. Here at Element, our 3D printer runs daily, producing functional engineering parts, concept models and prototypes that shape our design and manufacturing processes. But until now, we had no way of knowing exactly how much power it was using or how its consumption varied between different jobs.
Now we can analyse trends, optimise machine usage, and pinpoint ways to save energy, not just for our 3D printer, but across our entire machine shop!
This is digitalisation without the complexity. Shoestring solutions are designed for SMEs – affordable, practical, and requiring no specialist IT skills.
Western Australian food and beverage businesses can take advantage of Shoestring through the Department of Primary Industry and Regional Development (DPIRD), gaining hands-on support to tackle key challenges and find real-world solutions.
