Application examples with smart plastics
Packaging machines
Cable monitoring for bread packaging machinery
Which smart plastics technology is used?
CF.Q = Cable monitoring
Why is it used?
At 80 cycles per minute, several million cycles are reached within just a few months. Of course, the machine should operate for many years without failing. CF.Q does not lengthen the service life of the cables but can calculate their exact service life and thus makes maintenance 100% predictable.

Automotive industry
Gantries and linear robots
Smart maintenance planning for linear robots
Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.M sensor for motion data and EC.W sensor for measuring abrasion on the energy chain
Why is it used?
The two sensors transmit the measured values via the i.com module (now i.Cee module) directly to the Güdel condition monitoring system, which evaluates the data, making maintenance plannable.
Cranes
Sewage and wastewater treatment plants
24/7 emergency monitoring in the sewage treatment plant
Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.P pull force monitoring system for the energy chain
Why is it used?
The sedimentation tank surface scrapers in wastewater treatment plants operate very slowly, but do so 24/7 and it is possible that damage to the system will not be detected until hours later. In order to shut down the plant in an emergency, the EC.P module is used in many wastewater treatment plants with an energy chain, shutting down the plant in an emergency so that the damage can be rectified and total damage is avoided.
Intralogistics
Avoid downtime in the warehouse
Storage without interruption of logistics is essential for fast supply chains. Customers do not want to wait unnecessarily for their goods, and for manufacturers, on-time delivery is a decisive competitive advantage. The processes run largely automatically, especially in larger-scale material handling. Not only smart plastics, but also our energy chains, cables, plain and linear bearings can help here.
Composting and incineration plants
Bulk handling
Which smart plastics technology is used?
i.Sense EC.P for continuous monitoring of prevailing push/pull forces
Why is it used?
In order to provide additional planning security for such dimensions, the entire cable guide is supplemented with smart plastics – intelligent sensors in combination with energy chains. Damage to the cable guide can thus be countered well before it occurs.
Predictive maintenance in train washing station
Which smart plastics technology is used?
EC.M motion sensor, EC.W abrasion sensor, EC.B breakage sensor, i.Cee:plus for the evaluation of sensor data, i.Cee:net for the transfer of data to the i.Cee dashboard
Why is it used?
The purpose of condition monitoring of the built-in components is to ensure that, if damage occurs, the machine is shut down, whereby the predictive maintenance system provides an optimum maintenance plan for the built-in components.
