Issues

Delayed operation of the cylinder isn't noticed by operators, which leads to increased equipment cycle time.

Solution

Optimize maintenance by monitoring the cylinder operating time

The Cylinder and Cycle Time Monitor function of the e-F@ctory Starter Package measures and visualizes the cylinder operation time, automatically detects delays in the operating time caused by various factors (e.g., sticking due to dirt), and sounds an alarm.
This facilitates timely maintenance work without the need to rely on operator intuition and experience.

Benefits

Prevents deterioration of the performance operating ratio and keeps production within the set tact time.
