OverviewBinConnect by Nanolike provides reliable real-time feed level monitoring for each silo. The system delivers a 4-day consumption forecast, configurable minimum-level alarms and an option to order feed directly from the app, ensuring silos are not left empty. All silo inventories are consolidated in a single dashboard that can be shared with feed suppliers.
How it worksInstallation takes about 20 minutes: the sensor is mounted by drilling three holes in one silo leg. It measures pressure variation in the silo leg and transmits data to the Nanolike cloud. Stock levels for all silos appear in a simple dashboard; short-term forecasts are computed for the next four days.
Key features and behaviour- Real-time stock measurement per silo
- 4-day feed consumption forecast
- Alarm on minimum feed level
- Option to order feed directly via the app
- Accurate readings even when feed adheres to silo walls
- Installation without ladders or additional wiring
- Works under limited or poor network connectivity
Installation & accuracyThe sensor is fitted into a silo leg and monitors pressure variation. Typical measurement accuracy is approximately 90–95%, depending on silo geometry and size. Installation is quick and designed to be safe, without requiring ladders or extra cabling.
