"A high price can be avoided."
To avoid unplanned breakdowns and plant shutdown, smart
plastics from igus ® are used on indoor gantry cranes for the
automated handling of engine blocks at an Austrian automotive
supplier. EC.B modules monitor the status of the e-chain ® .
In the event of a chain breakage, the machine is stopped
automatically to prevent subsequent damage. Additional
EC.W modules signal advanced wear of the e-chain ® . The
measurement of wear data means that a chain's remaining
service life can be predicted and replacement can be planned
at an early stage.

"How do you put sliced bread intelligently into
a bag?"
The GBK 440 packaging machine operates with high stroke
rates in a compact installation space. This is why the developers
used e-chains ® and highly fl exible chainfl ex ® cables for reliable
cable guidance. The GBK 440 ensures the safe packaging
and sealing of product bags for sliced bread. The processing
speed is individually adjustable. Even incredibly fast 80 cycles
per minute are possible, which means considerably more
than one packaged unit per second. GHD Georg Hartmann
Maschinenbau was looking for a reliable energy supply system
for its automatic packaging machines, including preventive
monitoring to avoid machine failures.
