Real-Time Monitoring in Food Production: How Tecnosoft’s BlueWave Loggers Are Raising the Bar
In today’s fast-paced food industry, ensuring product quality, process integrity and regulatory compliance requires more than precision — it requires immediacy. Being able to identify and respond to issues in real time can mean the difference between a successful production run and a costly batch failure. Tecnosoft’s BlueWave Bluetooth Data Loggers bring a new level of control and visibility to food manufacturing, offering an easy-to-use, highly reliable solution for real-time temperature and pressure monitoring.
From Post-Process Analysis to Live Insights
Historically, temperature and pressure data have been reviewed after a process is complete. While this can be useful for record-keeping, it does little to prevent real-time issues. By the time a deviation is identified, it may be too late to act. BlueWave loggers address this challenge head-on by using Bluetooth 5.0 technology to transmit data wirelessly to a laptop — or, soon, to a smartphone once the mobile app is released (expected Q4 2025). This live data stream allows operators to monitor critical parameters during the process, enabling instant corrective action and reducing the risk of product loss, process failure, or non-compliance.
Designed for Both Heat and Cold
One of the BlueWave logger’s most versatile features is its broad temperature range, from -40°C to +140°C. This makes it ideal for use throughout the entire food production chain — from cold storage and refrigerated transport to cooking, pasteurisation, and sterilisation. In cold chain applications, the logger ensures that perishable products remain within safe limits during distribution and storage. For thermal processing, BlueWave confirms that target temperatures are reached and maintained to meet both safety and quality requirements.
The devices are also waterproof, allowing them to be placed inside industrial washers to monitor temperature and pressure during cleaning cycles. This ensures sanitation protocols are validated and that equipment operates within safe and effective parameters.
Flexible Options for Every Process
BlueWave loggers are available in three main configurations: temperature-only, pressure-only, or a combined unit that captures both parameters simultaneously. This offers flexibility depending on the needs of the application, with the combined solution offering a cost-effective option for multi-parameter monitoring.
Each logger features a fixed probe, available in rigid, flexible or bendable formats, and in a range of lengths to suit different types of equipment and process layouts. The probes are designed for durability and accuracy and are not interchangeable — which further ensures reliability in demanding production environments.
Wireless, Cable-Free Simplicity
BlueWave loggers eliminate the need for cables, docking stations or manual interfaces. With built-in Bluetooth connectivity, they allow for live monitoring without any physical connection to a PC, simplifying setup and reducing clutter in production areas. The data is transmitted directly to a laptop, providing a real-time view of what’s happening inside the process. Once the mobile app is launched, this same functionality will extend to smartphones, enhancing convenience even further.
The loggers integrate seamlessly with TS Manager 3 software, an intuitive platform for real-time data acquisition and analysis. Users can view live readings, generate detailed reports, identify process trends, and document compliance — all from one interface. This helps teams maintain a full audit trail and meet regulatory standards with minimal effort.
Built for Reliability and Ease of Use
Ease of use is central to the BlueWave range. The devices are simple to configure and operate: select your logger, start acquisition, and monitor your process. They are powered by user-replaceable batteries, reducing downtime and long-term maintenance costs. Each logger is also supplied with an Accredia traceable calibration certificate, ensuring measurement accuracy and making compliance straightforward during audits.
Whether used in a factory, a distribution centre or a test kitchen, BlueWave provides the confidence that conditions are being accurately and reliably monitored in real time.
Confidence, Delivered Instantly
In a production environment where even small deviations can have significant consequences, the ability to monitor conditions as they happen is a major advantage. Tecnosoft’s BlueWave loggers offer manufacturers more than just data — they provide the insight needed to make informed decisions immediately, rather than retrospectively. This means better product consistency, stronger regulatory compliance, fewer losses, and ultimately, a more resilient and responsive production process.
