More efficiency through Inline Measurement Technology

There are many possibilities to optimise processes in order to increase the efficiency of a production facility:

• Automating manual production steps

• Monitoring machine data for detecting their state and planning maintenance in order to reduce downtime

• Increasing the accuracy of the measurement to reduce the amount of defective goods

• Using statistical evaluation of the machine data and production data for adjusting processes

• Modernisation of the production facility

• etc.

With the performant Inline Measurement Technology by ADDI-DATA these improvements can be realised. The intelligent Ethernet solutions of the MSX-E and MSX-Box series can be embedded smoothly in existing processes.

Advantages of inline measurement technology

• Very fast (cycle, reaction time)
• 100 % control of pieces is possible
• Early error detection (live!)
• Robust against environmental conditions
• High automation level

In order to improve processes reliably in the long term, the inline measurement technology has to meet high requirements. For example, interferences affect the accuracy of the measurement

The challenges of Inline Measurement Technology

• Limited quantity of measurement points

• Integration into the production work cycle

• Limited space

• Flexibility (produced components)

• Interfaces: communication, security, implementation (resistant against interferences)

Application range

• Acquisition of production data / machine data

• SPC - Statistic Process Control

• Retrofit

What is Inline Measurement Technology?

The term Inline Measurement Technology includes the following words:

In: during the process, between the various process steps (cycle-dependant)

Line: production line and the related machines and facilities in the production.
