Condition monitoring &
predictive maintenance at BURKHARDT+WEBER
Condition monitoring in the manufacture of machine tools
More transparency on all levels thanks to the compacer IoT Gateway
Cost reduction
Thanks to the ability to better plan maintenance operations and optimised and scheduled operating times on the basis of power measurements
Real-time evaluation of the machine status
Better planning thanks to the avoidance of unplanned maintenance downtimes and the reduction of downtimes to a minimum
Process optimisation within the supply chain
Automated order proposals, e.g., in the case of defective components, which also reduces errors in the reordering of operating resources
The project at a glance
In the long term, the compacer IoT solution is to be integrated into all of BURKHARDT+WEBER’s machining centres. By installing compacer IoT Gateways based on edbic, data from the machine control system are collected.
In the future, BURKHARD+WEBER machines will be able to provide a multitude of data, which will show the condition of the machine and its performance on a dashboard based on real-time analysis.
The IoT Hub prepares those data in order to enable various evaluations and to give the responsible person, e.g., a machine operator, a clear overall view at all times. By connecting the machines to our compacer solution, condition monitoring is provided as a first step, which then acts as a stepstone to achieve predictive maintenance.
In this way, BURKHARDT+WEBER creates optimal conditions for its customers to implement upcoming digitalisation projects in production processes.
