Precision down to the millimetre ...

Precise positioning for long travels is no longer a dream of the future with the new travel measuring system. This is because it measures with an accuracy of 1mm. And thanks to the simple installation and user-friendly handling, costs can be saved in several areas.


 
superwise teaser
The new travel measuring system offers extremely high measuring accuracy and therefore offers a significant advantage in automation technology. The integration of wear monitoring offers additional safety and maintenance benefits by monitoring the condition of the energy chain and thus preventing premature failures. The combination of high accuracy, lightness and the option to dispense with alignment makes installation and handling easier and more cost-efficient.
The system can be installed quickly, as there is no need for time-consuming alignment. A further financial advantage is the delivery as a complete unit including mounting bracket, which means that it is not necessary to replace entire chains. It can also be used as an add-on to the autoglide 5.
Overall, the positioning system represents an opportunity to integrate more efficiency and reliability into modern production technology.

Avoid downtime, extend service life

i.Cee in a train washing station i.Cee gives CFL a system service life estimate, taking into account condition monitoring data such as temperature, travel speed, and distance travelled and provides maintenance and inspection instructions.

Customer applications worldwide

i.Sense EC.P examples in the overview In international automotive production, the global crane industry, or regional wastewater plants: i.Sense EC.P systems are successfully used wherever maintenance costs are saved and machine downtime prevented:

To the application overview

You determine the manner of data transfer and access

Data transfer within your local corporate network (i.Cee:local) or on a secure cloud (i.Cee:cloud)

i.Cee:local

i.Cee:local Your data do not leave your company network at any time, since the i.Cee software communicates only within networks of your choice. Options range from an energy chain within a single machine to a machine park and your own output interface.  

i.Cee:cloud

i.Cee:cloud In this internet-based solution, the data take an intermediate stop at the i.Cee.net, a so-called data concentrator. The i.Cee.net is at your location, allowing you to stop or adjust data exchange with the cloud at any time.

Smart machine data acquisition ...

... for predictive maintenance concepts

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 uses various mobile channels to immediately report any unforeseen change. All information is aggregated in a modern dashboard, online or offline in the local network, depending on the customer's requirements.
