Make your legacy injection molding machine smart – Give it Industry 4.0 capability – with Snap Signal.
In a recent material handling application, facility managers needed to find a solution that would alert them to the status of trailer capacity at loading dock doors in real-time.
Provide at-a-glance machine status indication and send machine status information to a wide range of devices.
Learn how In the Ditch™, an Idaho-based manufacturer of award-winning products for the towing industry, was able to make substantial improvements to the efficiency and accuracy of their picking processes by implementing a complete pick-to-light system from Banner Engineering.
Increase production efficiency by developing a wireless call-for-parts, service, and Andon system that allows for up to 35 work stations to call out to 12 forklifts/Hi-Los using the EZ-Light K70 Touch to wireless Direct Select operator interface.
Learn how the installation of Banner wireless vibration sensors and data from the DXM wireless gateway prevented unplanned downtime in this application.
Wireless products enable predictive maintenance in the port industry. Motors and gearboxes on cranes are prone to high vibration and temperature which can cause them to degrade. Predictive maintenance allows employees to interfere and solve problems before they completely fail and cause unplanned downtime and lost profit.
The K50U wireless ultrasonic sensor was designed specifically as a non-contact level monitoring solution. Monitoring the levels of epoxy in drums during refill alerts staff of potential overflows before they become a problem.
Wireless monitoring of rotating parts on coal conveyors throughout a large port allows operators to utilize predictive maintenance to prevent failure and save money while reducing downtime.
• Expand available data beyond local indication • Gather information necessary to react quickly • Drive efficiency improvements based on data previously unavailable
Monitoring production inputs and outputs provides machine operators and managers with critical data about their processes and equipment and can help them identify and resolve problems on the production line more quickly.
Banner’s wireless vibration and temperature sensor measures RMS velocity, in inches per second or millimeters per second, and temperature. Mounting it as close as possible to the bearings enables you to monitor the machine’s health by detecting increases in vibration and temperature. It is easy to mount using the standard bracket, the magnetic bracket or two sided thermal transfer mounting tape.
Remote monitoring enables increased visibility into the performance and efficiency of machines, processes, and people.
Predictive maintenance enables users to more accurately anticipate when machine maintenance will be needed based on real-time data from the machines themselves.
