Recognise the condition of the chain at a glance
With the new status indicator, you can read off the condition of your chain using simple technology without cables. The colour indicator changes from green to yellow to red. This allows you to quickly and efficiently recognise at a glance whether there is a need for action.
Tech up
- Colour indicator (red/yellow/green) for status information on gliding e-chain systems®
- Installation in the centre of the travel / power supply
Cost down
- Low cost - no electronics - physical measuring principle
- Simple retrofit planning
Proof
- Ongoing test series in the industry's largest test laboratory for dynamic cable applications
Sustainability
- Prevents environmentally harmful service calls
- Extends service life
Before and after: The difference at a glance
New
In the new status, the bright green colour indicates that everything is OK and there is no need for action.
Here you can clearly see that the status indicator protrudes beyond the crossbars in the new state.
In progress
After many cycles, the first coloured layers were rubbed off. The abrasion marks are clearly visible.
The advanced process exposed the red layer. It can now be seen at a glance that there is a need for action.
In fast motion ...
... we show how the condition of the indicator changes over time. After intensive use, the red layer becomes visible. It indicates that there is a need for action. For example, maintenance at the optimum time or a necessary replacement.

The superwise service - simply explained
superwise basic
... Security through experience ...
With the superwise basic service, we give you access to the superwise portal.
There you can view the recommended replacement time for your energy chain. We base this statement on the information and data you provide by using statistically determined values.
In addition, we offer you the service of informing you of inspection dates in good time.
We use details such as the number of cycles per day, speed, acceleration, fill weight and ambient conditions to calculate the expected service life. With these specifications, you can create time-controlled maintenance plans.
The basic version provides you with:
- An overview of the smart plastics components in use (shown on the dashboard)
- Maintenance management via the dashboard
- Saving of the respective installation date
- Information on the recommended replacement time based on statistical values
- Next-service reminder
- Sensors for condition monitoring as an option (to avoid total damage in the event of a crash)
You are also welcome to make a maintenance contract with us.
superwise silver
... precisely know the status of your energy chain ...
With the superwise silver service, you can supplement your energy chain with our i.Sense modules and the ComBox. These systems determine an exact movement profile of your energy chain and send it to the superwise portal.
This makes a precise statement on the recommended replacement time for your energy chain and corresponding maintenance recommendations.
With the help of the i.Sense sensors, the number of cycles, speed, acceleration and any anomalies that occur are recorded and transmitted to the superwise portal, where a graphical display is created.
The silver version provides you with:
- All advantages of the basic version
- Adaptive replacement recommendation based on the actual movement profile
- Customised maintenance schedules based on use
- Identification of anomalies and defined follow-up measures
- Proactive contact from igus® if action is required
- The i.Sense module detects situations in which defined values are exceeded and issues an alarm or notification
superwise gold
... Highest precision thanks to top-quality sensors ...
The superwise gold service uses high-quality sensors to provide you with precise and comprehensive information about your components.
Thanks to sensitive sensors and sophisticated i.Cee modules, highly detailed data can be collected.
On this basis, it is possible to make precise predictions about the individual condition and the expected recommended replacement time**.**
The gold version provides you with:
- All advantages of the silver version
- Dynamic replacement recommendations, sensor-based with the help of wear sensors
- High-resolution sensor data on the dashboard
- Remote access via IoT for data transfer. No integration into existing network structures
- Automatic security updates
superwise platinum
... Leave the worrying to us ...
The superwise platinum service makes your life easier.
You get all advantages of the superwise gold service plus complete peace of mind with regard to your data.
The platinum version provides you with:
- All advantages of the gold version
- Data security through customised integration into your own network structure
Predictive maintenance successfully realised
i.Cee in practice
**Sewage and wastewater treatment plants |**Port and container cranes | Conveying and bulk handling
You alone decide on the route & access of the data
Data transfer within your local company network (i.Cee:local) or via the secure cloud (i.Cee:cloud)
Smart machine data acquisition ...
... for predictive maintenance concepts
The i.Cee module can be integrated into predictive-maintenance concepts in a number of ways - from preventive service management, which schedules regular maintenance depending on use, to location-independent fault management, which uses various mobile channels to immediately report any unforeseen change. All information is aggregated in a modern dashboard, online or offline in the local network, depending on the customer's requirements.
White paper on optimising overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)
Differentiates condition monitoring from predictive maintenance
This white paper explains
- Condition monitoring (i.Sense) at igus
- Predictive maintenance (i.Cee) at igus
- The technology behind both systems
- What both systems offer for energy supply in the industry
More time for your own ideas ...
... thanks to less downtime with igus i.Cee
In automotive production, production lines never stop. Collaborating robot arms for assembly and welding are in continuous use, as are all the components that supply them with energy and data. It is in environments like this that predictive maintenance make the most sense. Whether for a new Industry 4.0 project or efficiency-driven retrofitting, our smart plastics solutions are available as universal modular systems and can be individually adapted to any system
