Smart Factories – Industri 4.0

Industry 4.0

Industry 4.0 is a concept that originated in Germany (where it is known as http://www.felcro.co.id and is often used to describe data-driven, AI-powered, networked http://www.amotronic.com  as the harbingers of the fourth industrial revolution. This predicted transition of manufacturing processes and technologies is based on these core principles:

  • The pervasive networking of people, machines and “things” in physical and virtual realms http://www.wurswitch.com
  • Leveraging data through tools and systems that expose the data’s value to drive production efficiency and flexibility
  • Increasing product quality and improving speed-to-market through pre-production virtual testing . http://www.felcro.co.id
  • AI-assisted and data-driven planning, production, manufacturing, and maintenance http://www.amotronic.com

Our experience in machinery safety

From adhesives to washing powder, cosmetics to smart-phones, contact lenses to tobacco, the world’s leading brand manufacturers and their suppliers of consumer packaging use high levels of automation and machinery to produce and package their products. Increasingly, the trend is for CPG manufacturers to publish occupational safety performance data demonstrating their commitment to safe and sustainable business. Many brands are manufactured safely in partnership with Pilz. https://www.pilz.com

Machinery Safety

Whether you are making paper or converting it to tissue for family care products you use machinery with many hazards. The threading of paper, the high rotation speed and the vast size of the machines create risks that are challenging to achieve machine safety. In your competitive global business you must achieve machine safety with a high level of availability and productivity. We help you succeed. http://www.pilz.com

With our machine safety lifecycle we help manufacturers of tissue and paper to achieve machine safety goals.

  • For the dangerous intervention with machines, for example after a paper break or a re-threading, special safeguarding systems are required: controlling crawl speeds, fixed guardings, “hold to run” or pre start Alarms? we will design the right solution for you, based on our risk assessment and safety concept.
  • By the interpretation and application of relevant C-norms for your industry, like for example EN 1010 and EN 1034, we guarantee that your machines will meet the statutory requirements and work efficiently.

Machine tools

Our solutions can be used on converting, separating or assembling machine tools. In the process we employ technologies that are established and certified worldwide. To provide an automation solution for your machine tool we offer a comprehensive portfolio ranging from safe sensor technology to control systems, operation and visualisation, through to drive technology. A comprehensive services portfolio such as risk analysis or verification of safety solutions complete the range.

As a technology leader in safe automation, we are constantly redefining safety and productivity for our customers. Individual, cost-optimised solutions for your machine tools are the result. You can rely on our complete package for the safety functions on your machine tool.

Performance, rapid tool change or traverse speed with high accuracy are all significant factors in the precision and productivity of a machine tool. The safety of man and machine plays a significant role, but must not obstruct the production process. What’s needed, therefore, is a tailored safety concept with appropriate sensor, control and drive technology.

Human-robot collaboration

The closer human and machine work together, the more efficient work practices become. However, safe interaction between human and robot increasingly demands new technologies and solutions. Also, the demands on safety increase, the closer human and machine get to each other.

To verify the required safety level, the entire safety function must be considered – from the sensor to the logic and beyond to the actuator. Safe human-robot collaboration (HRC) can only be guaranteed when all these factors interact in a coordinated manner.

Each robot application must be considered individually in terms of safety. Pilz provides support with a range of services tailored to the individual life phases of a robot system: From application analysis to risk assessment in accordance with EN ISO 12100, through to CE marking.

Our safety solutions meet the specifications of DIN EN ISO 10218-2 and ISO/TS 15066. And to complete the range of services, we have a range of training courses on robot safety.

Modular safety gate system

Obtain information at the virtual exhibition: Safely monitoring safety gates

With our modular safety system, you can protect your employees from hazardous machine movements thanks to individual safety gate solutions. In addition to the protection of your employees from the machine, the machine should be protected from unauthorised access. You want to know how this works? This is simple: Use the modular safety system with the access permission system PITreader. This way you regulate the safe access and also the access permission of your machine, and you protect it from unauthorised access. Together with the configurable safe small controller PNOZmulti 2 you obtain a safe and economical complete solution.

The pushbutton unit PITgatebox is ideal for combining with the two safety gate sensors PSENslock and PSENmlock . As a result you have additional control and pushbutton elements: from E-STOP pushbuttons and illuminated pushbuttons through to key switches and key-operated pushbuttons. The PITgatebox is available in a number of different versions and, with its robust, die cast zinc housing, is particularly resistant to shock, vibration and collision. Its slimline housing enables a space-saving installation on standard aluminium profile systems.

Automation system for Industry 4.0

The controllers from the automation system PSS 4000 can be used in accordance with the multi-master principle. You can link several controllers with equal authorisation simply via the real-time Ethernet SafetyNet p. SafetyNET p exchanges data and states between the controllers and synchronises them. So every controller knows what the other is doing.

You can program and configure all network subscribers centrally via the software platform PAS4000. The PASvisu visualisation software enables you to always keep an eye on the project. That makes handling your project really simple, however large it is! Now you can always respond swiftly and flexibly to individual customer requirements!
