                                                                          equipped with connectivity and
                                                                          sensors to make complex automation
                                                                          solutions suitable for "Industry 4.0"

















                       smart plastics enable

                       Industry 4.0 energy supply

                       In the future, automation solutions across diff erent industries will all have digitalisation. If you want to
                       entirely network the machines in your manufacturing plant with the internet of things (IoT) in order to be
                       Industry 4.0-compatible and optimise such items as maintenance, you will need time and money. A
                       digitalisation strategy that begins by connecting and networking individual assemblies and components is
                       faster and costs much less. Plant operators benefi t immediately from the connectivity of smart components:
                       status monitoring for automated plant can be implemented in real time without additional personnel, and
                       maintenance can be organised predictively. smart plastics off er two options: the simple and rather analogue
                       condition monitoring i.Sense (sense = perception), for integration with maximum safety. For the complete
                       networking of the machines with the internet (IoT), the predictive maintenance i.Cee (Cee, derived from
                       "see") is just right.
                       i.Sense - condition monitoring
                       ●  Simplest, fastest way for a self-monitoring smart plastics product, by attachment of sensors
                       ●  Alarm or message when a previously defi ned limit value is exceeded
                       ●  Values outside defi ned limits can directly trigger a system shut-down

                       i.Cee - predictive maintenance
                       ●  Sensors and software help to create a system for dynamic service life calculation and optimal maintenance
                         times
                       ●  Wide variety of designs, off ering a high degree of individuality
                       ●  Maximum system and user safety and product service life

                       Typical industries and applications
                       ● Harbour installations ● Cranes ● Automotive production ● Bulk Handling ● Logistics ● Semi conductor
