Tech up

  • Real-time status information for system parts subject to abrasion
  • Direct connection via potential-free contacts to the plant control system (PLC)
  • Comprehensive connectivity for integration into predictive maintenance concept with i.Cee

Cost down

  • Simple installation by gluing or screwing into the material to be monitored
  • Avoid unplanned downtimes thanks to condition-based alert messages

Proof

  • Ongoing test series in the industry's largest test laboratory for high-performance polymers

Sustainability

  • Minimised material costs for integrated sensor
  • Usage-dependent product replacement reduces unnecessary material costs

IoT expert Richard Habering explains the use and benefits of the new low-cost sensors.
