Application examples with smart plastics

Which smart plastics technology is used?

• Condition monitoring: EC.P for determining the push/pull forces, EC.B for determining chain breaks, CF.P for measuring the tensile force on cables, EC.M sensor for the movement data and EC.W sensor for measuring the abrasion on the energy chain.
• Predictive maintenance:  i.Cee. local
   
  Why is it used?
  For maximum system protection, overview, maintenance management, product service life and safety.

Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.M sensor for motion data and EC.W sensor for the measurement of abrasion along the energy chain
Why is it used?
The two sensors transfer the measured values via the i.com module (now i.Cee module) directly to Güdel's condition monitoring system, which evaluates the data and makes maintenance predictable.

Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.P pull force monitoring system for the energy chain
Why is it used? 
The sedimentation tank surface scrapers in wastewater treatment plants operate very slowly, but do so 24/7 and it is possible that damage to the system will not be detected until hours later. In order to shut down the plant in an emergency, the EC.P module is used in many wastewater treatment plants with an energy chain, shutting down the plant in an emergency so that the damage can be rectified and total damage is avoided.

Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.B sensor for breakage monitoring + EC.W for measurement of the abrasion along the energy chain.
Why is it used? 
For the customer, it is important that subsequent damage to the equipment be prevented in the event of chain breakage. The EC.B module detects a breakage in the energy chain and switches the equipment off or at least indicates a fault. By means of the EC.W sensor, the abrasion along the e-chains is measured, as a result of which maintenance is predictable
