i.Sense from smart plastics in practice
When do I need a smart condition monitoring system like the i.Sense TR.B?
If maintenance work poses a health or safety risk
If maintenance costs are to be reduced and service life extended
When regular maintenance work requires complete production shutdown
When motion anomalies cannot be detected by humans in time
If plants or machines need to be monitored frequently or continuously
Difficult to access or vie
i.Sense in daily use on linear chains
- The i.Sense EC.B (EC = e-chain, B = breakage detection) sensor is installed on the moving end of the e-chain (in the video with the smaller sensor box for short travels)
- Special mounting brackets allow the EC.B. sensor to be installed on the moving end of the e-chain
- A rope is stretched through the e-chain, which picks up any change in length and reports it to the new EC.B rope hoist sensor.
- This detects chain breaks, shuts down the system and prevents further damage
10 tips for energy supply on the robot
This guide shows you step by step how to select, install, and commission an energy supply system for Axis 3-6 of an industrial robot.
The first few points are about positioning the cable and hose pack and selecting the right energy chain.
Then you choose the appropriate retraction system. Helpful tips on assembly and a final checklist complete the ten-point package and provide step-by-step instructions for both amateurs and professionals.
Integration into your network environment
As part of the i.Sense condition monitoring system from smart plastics, all i.Sense EC.B data can also be evaluated in the i.Cee switch cabinet module. The complete alarm and escalation management of the plant can then be controlled digitally.
The i.Cee module can be integrated into predictive maintenance concepts in a number of ways, from preventive service management, which schedules regular maintenance depending on use, to location-independent fault management, which immediately reports any unforeseen change via various mobile channels. All information is collated in a modern dashboard, online or offline in the local network, depending on the customer's requirements.
