New smart gearbox enables Industry 4.0 predictive maintenance(15/09/2023)
Available from Mclennan, Wittenstein’s new cynapse smart gearbox combines built-in sensors with analysis and visualisation software to monitor significant gearbox threshold data that is communicated via IO-Link to PLCs, as well as higher-level IPCs/gateways and Ccoud systems for comprehensive IIoT integration. Data including acceleration, vibration, operating time, and temperature, etc. can be evaluated as part of Industry 4.0 predictive maintenance.
