Features and benefits

Only the intelligent networking of the individual components creates the right basis for predictive maintenance concepts. The central element of this system is the i.Cee software. This software, in conjunction with sensors on the energy chain, transforms our products into smart products.

This upgrade enables you to determine the maximum service life of your igus product, and the i.Cee system specifies the perfect time for servicing.

Permanent monitoring of push/pull forces by i.Sense EC.P sensors
Monitoring of the energy chain for breakage (i.Sense EC.B)
Evaluation of the sensor data in the module
Fast notification of PLC in the event of unusual events
Service life calculation based on actual use (determined by wear sensors)
Maintenance management
SMS alert

Industry 4.0: realised in practice

Customer applications with smart plastics

Linear robot
Integrating smart plastics sensors into the energy supply system ensures that up-to-date condition data are supplied to the customer's condition monitoring at all times.

Aluminium oxide production
"If chain movement is excessively impeded by dust and dirt, push/pull force monitoring switches the system off before any damage can occur."
