Features and benefits

Only the intelligent networking of the individual components creates the right basis for predictive maintenance concepts. The central element of this system is the i.Cee software. This software, in conjunction with sensors on the energy chain, transforms our products into smart products. 

This upgrade enables you to determine the maximum service life of your igus product, and the i.Cee system specifies the perfect time for servicing.
  • Continuous pull/push force monitoring with i.Sense EC.P sensors
  • Energy chain monitoring for breakage (i.Sense EC.B)
  • Evaluation of the sensor data in the module
  • Lightning-fast information to the PLC  when there are unusual events
  • Service life calculation based on actual usage (determined with wear sensors)
  • Maintenance management
  • SMS - Alerting
