Abstract: A system (900) for processing input data (912) received from a food handling line (902) to determine trigger data (938) for sampling is provided. The system comprises a transceiver (914), a processor (916) and a memory (918). The transceiver (914) is configured to receive the input data (912) and transmit the trigger data (938). The processor (916) is configured to execute a first trigger block function (920) configured to receive first input parameter data (924) and transmit first output parameter data (926), a second trigger block function (922) configured to receive second input parameter data (928) and transmit second output parameter data (930), wherein the input data (912) comprises the first input parameter data (924) and the second input parameter data (928), and the trigger data (940) comprises the first output parameter data (926) and the second output parameter data (930).

Abstract: A method for processing sensor input data captured from sensors placed in a production line. The method comprises receiving sensor input data from the sensors placed in the production line by a variables generator, wherein the variables generator comprises a first processor, a first data communications module and a first memory, generating a number of variables based on the sensor input data according to a variable generation schemed, transferring the number of variables to a key performance indicator generator, wherein the KPI generator comprises a second processor, a second data communications module and a second memory, generating a number of key performance indicators based on the number of variables according to a KPI generation scheme, and transferring the number of KPIs to a user interface enabled device.

Abstract: A method for quality control of a packaging system is provided. The method comprises receiving a first record of packaging quality parameter data related to a first packaging quality parameter for a package being assessed, determining a second packaging quality parameter based on said first record, requesting a second record of packaging quality parameter data related to said second packaging quality parameter, and receiving said second record.
