Brewing Beyond Borders

How a Mexican Brewery Future-Proofs Its Production with KVM Systems from G&D

One of Mexico’s largest breweries set itself an ambitious goal: to increase its production capacity from 3.5 to 5 million hectoliters of beer per year.
To achieve this growth, the company needed to modernize its production processes and prepare its IT infrastructure for 24/7 operation – with a clear focus on reliability, ergonomics, and scalability.

The Challenge: Growth Without Downtime

As demand continued to rise, the existing system landscape was reaching its technical limits. Different control systems, distributed computers, and noisy control rooms hampered efficient operations. 

The brewery needed a solution that would:

  • Securely integrate central servers
  • Seamlessly connect control rooms
  • Ensure fail-safe 24/7 operations

The Solution: KVM Technology by G&D

Together with a local integrator, G&D developed a customized KVM concept based on theControlCenter-Compact.

Das SThe system connects multiple operator stations, servers, and engineering workplaces via CAT and fiber-optic cabling, ensuring maximum flexibility across long distances.

Technical Highlights

  • Redundant Matrix Architecture:Two ControlCenter-Compact systems prevent single points of failure and ensure uninterrupted operation around the clock. 
  • Dual-Head Support:Transmits two video signals via a single connection – reducing cabling effort and port requirements.
  • Improved Working Environment: Computers were moved to a central server room – resulting in less heat, less noise, and more workspace.
  • Hybrid Operation: Combining CAT6, multimode, and singlemode fiber guarantees performance and future scalability.

The Result: Reliable. Quiet. Future-Ready.

The new KVM infrastructure enables stable 24/7 operation while increasing efficiency and improving workplace comfort.

Achieved Improvements:

  • Higher operational reliability through redundancy
  • Simplified maintenance and centralized administration
  • Improved ergonomics and reduced noise levels
  • Future-proof infrastructure for continued growth
