Press-container monitoring

    Service the press container when it's full — not when the calendar says so

    Stationary press and compactor containers already know when they're full. Navixy listens — OEM 75%/90% and power-loss signals, or a retrofitted laser sensor — fires the right alarm with IoT Logic, and never loses a container to a customer site.

    Everything a stationary container can tell you, on one screen

    A press container is a machine, not just a bin — capacity, power, position and health are all signals. Navixy ingests them device-agnostically and turns them into service calls, alarms and reports.

    Two ways in: OEM signals, or a laser retrofit

    Modern compactors expose their own capacity and power-loss signals — Navixy consumes them directly. Older or signal-less containers get an external laser fill sensor added on. Both land in the same platform, the same alarms, the same reports.

    OEM capacity thresholds become IoT Logic alarms — dispatch a service run when the press is actually full, not on a fixed rhythm.

    Power loss caught instantly

    A compactor without power doesn't compact. Power-loss alerts flag a dead unit before overflowing bags pile up around it.

    Located between customer sites

    Press containers move between customer sites. GPS and geofences keep every unit located on the map alongside its fill and power status.

    IoT Query builds custom reports and dashboards — fill history, service runs, container utilization — straight from the same live data.

    Operators run press-container monitoring on Navixy in two different ways. Some consume Navixy as a data-collection layer feeding their own API — Navixy normalizes the container signals, their system does the rest. Others use Navixy's alarm system directly: thresholds and power-loss alerts go straight to the dispatchers who run the service call. Same platform, different boundary — you choose where it sits.

    • OEM press-container signals (75%/90% fill, power-loss) consumed directly — no middleware
    • Navixy alarms direct to dispatch — thresholds and power-loss go straight to the service team
    • Retrofit laser sensors on signal-less containers — same alarms and reports as OEM-connected units
    • IoT Logic device commands: outputs, relays, comm-profile switching from the platform
    The economics

    What a monitored press container saves

    A stationary container's costs hide in trips and downtime: hauls to a half-full press, a dead compactor nobody noticed, a container quietly parked at the wrong site. Monitoring turns each of those into a signal you act on the same day.

    FAQ

    Straight answers on press-container monitoring

    Remote press-container monitoring works by reading the container's own capacity and power signals — or a retrofitted fill sensor — and turning them into alarms and reports. Modern compactors expose OEM signals such as 75%/90% full and power loss; Navixy ingests them directly. IoT Logic applies the thresholds and fires the alarm — to your dispatchers, or into your own system via API — and IoT Query keeps the fill and service history.
