In the field of multi-axis robots, industrial integrators are faced with the unique challenge of selecting and managing cables to be run on the outside of a moving six-axis platform. The complex movements made by six-axis robots require special consideration when deciding on how to manage their cable systems. “There are many unsuitable ways to accomplish this, from corrugated tubing used in static wiring, to on the fly fixes such as duct tape andbungee cords,” Don Nester, Product Manager for Chainflex® Continuous flex cables at igus® explained.

This white paper takes a fresh look at the vision for Industry 4.0 and suggests ways in which to take advantage of the broad view of the concept. Implementations of Industry 4.0 have mostly focused on using new technologies for economic benefits. Sustainability and social aspects have received less attention, despite their importance and potential for economic benefit as well, as we will show.

Identifying problems before they cause equipment failure and costly, unplanned downtime is the purpose of proactive and predictive maintenance programs. And one of the most reliable ways of catching problems before they become failures is to detect when a piece of equipment is beginning to operate outside of its normal parameters – especially if it is beginning to run too hot or too cold. Variations from normal heating are often the first signs of impending equipment failure, so frequent thermal inspections of critical equipment such as motors, belts, and drives not only helps extend the life of these assets, but keep your entire operation up and running normally
