BURKHARDT+WEBER, an international manufacturer of machine tools, relies on condition monitoring with compacer

BURKHARDT+WEBER has made a name for itself in the world of large machining centers. With an international focus, the Reutlingen-based company delivers to all parts of the world - wherever the highest quality is required.

For 130 years, everything has revolved around the development of efficient and innovative production solutions for the demanding machining of steel, cast iron and titanium parts. The machining centers are further developed in interdisciplinary teams and all core components and in-house developments are manufactured internally. In the long term, the compacer IoT solution is to be integrated into BURKHARDT+WEBER machining centers. By installing the compacer IoT gateway, based on the edbic platform, data is collected from the machine control system.

In future, BURKHARD+WEBER machines will be able to provide a wide range of data that can be analyzed in real time to show the status of the machine and its performance on a dashboard.

An IoT hub prepares this data in such a way that various evaluations are possible and the operator has an overview at all times. By connecting the machines to the compacer solution, condition monitoring is possible, but the first milestone for predictive maintenance has also been laid.

BURKHARDT+WEBER is thus creating the best possible conditions for its customers to implement upcoming digitalization projects in production processes.
