Client: OPI Systems

Market: Ag-Tech

OPI Blue is an advanced, fully automated grain storage monitoring system that gives farmers real-time insight and control over bin conditions, anytime, anywhere.

Our team designed the OPI Blue Node and DIN rail interconnectivity hardware to bring this powerful software platform to life inside the bin and control room. We focused on creating a rugged, modular node unit that installs easily in demanding agricultural environments, with clear status indicators and robust weather-resistant construction.
The DIN rail interconnectivity design ensures that power and data connections are secure, tidy, and maintenance-friendly — simplifying installation for farm technicians and service crews. From enclosure engineering to thermal management and connector layout, every detail reflects our commitment to practical, farmer-ready design that keeps critical grain quality data flowing reliably, season after season.

Behind the Design, Obstacles to Innovation:

Rugged Agricultural Environment: Engineering a housing and mounting solution that withstands dust, moisture, wide temperature swings, and daily farm wear and tear.

Quick, Reliable Installation: Integrating a DIN rail layout that keeps power and data lines organized, minimizing risk of loose connections or accidental damage.

Clean, Serviceable Wiring: Creating a system that integrates cleanly with existing equipment and workflows without disrupting daily operations.

Visual Status Clarity: Including clear, easy-to-read indicators so farmers and technicians can quickly check node health and signal status at a glance.

Scalable, Modular Design: Ensuring the node unit can flexibly expand with additional sensors and system upgrades as farm needs grow.
