Smart maintenance solutions for energy chain systems and bearing technology from igus

Prevent downtimes ... extend product operating times ... save maintenance costs ... with smart plastics

With the i.Sense continuous condition monitoring system, you can keep an eye on your systems at all times. i.Cee enables you to connect your production plant to the Internet of Things (IoT) or your local network and gives you the option of carrying out predictive maintenance.

With smart plastics - energy chain systems, chainflex cables, linear guides and plain bearings equipped with smart sensor technology - we want to make complex automation solutions as compatible with Industry 4.0 as possible.

What you want to know about smart maintenance:

狀態監測 (i.Sense)

Condition monitoring is the easiest and quickest way to turn many igus parts into self-monitoring smart plastics products. By attaching sensors, operators can measure forces during operation. If they exceed predefined limits (e.g. sudden peaks caused by a blockage or chain break), the system issues an alarm or at least a notification. This information provides the basis for next steps, maintenance or shutdown. If required, values outside defined limits can trigger a system shutdown immediately to avoid expensive damage. At igus, we use the term "i.Sense" to refer to condition monitoring.

預測性保養 (i.Cee)

Predictive maintenance uses sensors, software and the elements of condition monitoring to create a system that allows dynamic service life calculation and determines the best times for the maintenance of igus products. This makes predictive maintenance the next step in achieving a comprehensive concept for smart energy supply and bearing technology. This system offers a wide range of designs and a high degree of customisation. The goal is always to maximise system and user safety as well as product service life. At igus, we call our predictive maintenance system i.Cee (derived from "I see ahead").
