Continuous condition monitoring with emergency shutdown

With smart plastics you have full control over your systems. smart plastics combine the high-performance plastics from igus with the latest sensor technology. The condition monitoring system i.Sense for status monitoring always consists of several components. Various sensors are available for machine data acquisition, depending on the application. This means that both mechanical factors such as tensile / shear forces and electrical factors such as the line quality can be recorded. With the connected i.Sense module in the control cabinet, all sensor data is evaluated, triggering follow-up actions. This enables direct input into the machine control as well as location-independent visualization in an online dashboard. This lays the foundations for condition-based maintenance in smart factories.
