Transparent machine
Digital machine information without additional sensors
Without the need for additional sensors, the technology function transparent machine built into the servo amplifier delivers valuable information regarding the machine’s status. The recording of different status elements such as axis stress, movability and energy balance enables a needs-based planning of maintenance work. With this function, the mechanical engineers receive an easy-to-use tool to gather machine data without any additional programming effort. This ensures long-term performance of the operated system.
Advantages for machine manufacturers
No additional effort: the software function transparent machine comes with all JAT servo amplifiers
No additional programming needed to gather machine data
Less fieldbus traffic, saving computing power
Instantly accessible data regarding the machine status via mouse click
Monitoring
Axis stress: Permanent reading of machine performance data for maintenance intervals (e.g. travel time (depending on direction), track (depending on direction), number of direction changes, ...)
Movability: Running characteristic for detection of mechanical changes (beispielsweise Stromwert-Aufnahme und Vergleich mit Referenzwert)
Energy balance: Balance for calculation of climate control, heat capacity of the servo drive
