smart plastics MWS: customised real-time monitoring has never been easier
The smart plastics mini wear sensor (MWS) is used to record the percentage of abrasion on moving system parts in order to avoid possible operational failures at an early stage.
IoT expert Richard Habering explains the use and benefits of the new low-cost sensors.

i.Sense from smart plastics in practice
When do I need a smart status sensor like i.Sense BRG?
Live condition monitoring in any position/bearing
i.Sense BRG for everyone
Not just for farmers, but for every machine operator, a defective bearing can spoil the working day and the mood. Machine failures and downtimes are among the biggest cost drivers in the industry. It is therefore important for maintenance staff to prevent unplanned downtime in good time.
Smart bearing products from igus are therefore particularly suitable for very sensitive or hard-to-reach areas of a machine, as the condition of the bearing can be checked at any time. With the help of the sensor, every wear-resistant part of a machine can be monitored remotely – from which many other motion plastics also benefit.
Integration into your own network environment
As part of the i.Sense condition monitoring system from smart plastics, all data from the new i.Sense BRG mini sensor can also be analysed in the i.Cee control cabinet module. This can then be used to digitally control the entire alarm and escalation management of the system.
The i.Cee module also offers numerous integration options in predictive maintenance concepts. From preventive service management, which schedules regular maintenance depending on usage, to location-independent fault management, which immediately reports any unforeseen changes via various mobile channels. All information is aggregated in a modern dashboard, online or offline in the local network, depending on the customer's requirements.
