smart plastics
Condition monitoring systems are designed to eliminate unplanned downtime of machines and industrial plants by means of permanent condition monitoring. With the aid of 3D visualisations, these i.Sense systems can be integrated early in the design process.
Today we want to look at the operational application of smart plastics’ intelligent push/pull force monitoring. More specifically, ask the question, What to do if i.Sense EC.P has triggered once? What measures are then to be carried out to quickly reactivate the system again?
The topic of our last online seminar for 2021 was "Reliably monitoring cables in energy supply system applications, extending service life, and avoiding production downtimes".
A small investment with a big effect: the latest generation of i.Sense CF.D monitoring sensors check the electrical condition of chainflex cables in e-chain systems – without contact and without interfering with the existing harnessing. As a result, the real-time monitoring of this concept study does not require any sacrificial wires and in combination with the new i.Cee: plus II evaluation module, enables even more efficient predictive maintenance for protection against cost-intensive system failures.
“Condition monitoring”, “predictive maintenance”, “Internet of Things” … It can all make your head spin. A ready-to-install smart plastics complete set including simple step-by-step instructions allows you to get started relatively quickly in networked production. Recently, it has become very easy to configure them in the igus online shop and order them directly online.
