Intelligent system monitoring with the Fanuc FIELD system and smart plastic
The international robot manufacturer Fanuc offers its open industrial IoT platform "FIELD system" to analyse data from machines and systems centrally. The system can connect production machines from all manufacturers via a local network topology, enabling comprehensive data analysis of the entire process chain. Apps from Fanuc as well as third-party providers such as igus® are used in this infrastructure. With this "smart plastic - i.Cee" app, maintenance technicians can monitor the condition of their igus® components, for example energy chain and cable, in the FIELD system and plan maintenance with foresight.

How does predictive maintenance work?
Only the intelligent networking of the individual components creates a solid basis for predictive maintenance concepts. At igus®, everything about predictive maintenance is summarised under the term i.Cee ("I see ahead").
The central element is the i.Cee software. This software, in conjunction with sensors on the energy chain, the plain bearing bush or a linear slide, turns the products available from stock into smart products. It makes it possible to determine the maximum service life of your igus® product and the i.Cee system also indicates the perfect service time. Algorithms adjust the service life and the service time according to usage. With the software we provide, a few sensors and the new communication module i.Cee:plus II, standard products can be turned into a smart energy supply or intelligent plain bearings in no time at all.
One control system for all robots
- Preconfigured projects for all igus® single axes, SCARA, and AGV
- Test the software in advance free of charge
- Intuitive control and programming environment with free 3D user interface
- Remote access of the user interface to the computer via TCP/IP possible
- Options: Grippers can also be graphically integrated into the software
