Prevent unplanned system shutdowns easily with just three clicks

i.Sense condition monitoring systems The customer can retrofit all the ready-to-install systems on the energy supply system on his own.

Ready-to-install systems for push/pull force monitoring (EC.P) and break detection (EC.B) now in the online shop

Following the smart plastics complete sets, the i.Sense EC.P systems for push/pull force monitoring and i.Sense EC.B for breakage detection can now also be configured in their entirety including pricing and ordered from the i.Sense online shop.​

The individual system configuration for each application can be easily selected based on several selection criteria (chain series, length, control cabinet position, excess cable length). The​ bill of materials, price and delivery time are then generated. Further information such as EPLAN macros as well as operating and mounting instructions can also be viewed directly in the shop.

"Maximum reliability"

Condition monitoring system in the gantry "Thanks to the digital machine data acquisition and networking of machines and products, we can continuously record component condition and receive a predictive notification as soon as repair or replacement is required."

Daniel Bangerter, Head of Customer Care for Güdel Deutschland GmbH

Customer applications worldwide

Overview of condition monitoring examples In international automotive production, the global crane industry, or regional wastewater plants: i.Sense condition monitoring systems are successfully used wherever maintenance costs are saved and machine downtime is prevented:

To the application overview

When do I need a smart condition monitoring system like i.Sense from smart plastics?

Condition monitoring instead of production downtime

When regular maintenance work requires complete production shutdown ...
Condition monitoring system for very small deviations

When motion anomalies cannot be detected by humans in time ... 
Condition monitoring for continuous monitoring

If plants or machines need to be monitored frequently or continuously ...
Condition monitoring for hard-to-reach areas

If energy supply system travels are difficult to access or view ... 
Condition monitoring for security areas

If maintenance work poses a health or safety risk ...
Condition monitoring for reducing costs

If maintenance costs are to be reduced and service life extended ...

Ready-to-install i.Sense condition monitoring systems form the basis for predictive maintenance

Since the i.Sense Wonderbox is part of the smart plastics i.Sense condition monitoring system, all of its data can also be evaluated in the i.Cee control cabinet module. These data can then be used to digitally control the system's alarm and escalation management. 

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.
