Reliable acquisition and evaluation of operating data

Reliable acquisition and evaluation of operating data

Use data to optimize your machines and production processes.

Back to Products

In order to maintain your competitive edge in the market, processes must be as efficient as possible and improved on a continuous basis. Decisions regarding the optimization of machines and production processes are made based on machine and system data. The collection and evaluation of values such as flow rates, currents or temperatures enables predictive maintenance to be carried out, thereby improving machine performance and reducing machine downtimes.

Our components for operating data acquisition offer everything you need for the precise conversion, measurement, monitoring, display, and logging of consumption values. Furthermore, this data can also be pre-evaluated using a PLCnext Control device and easily transferred to the cloud.

Convert and measure currents

Use PACT current transformers to convert high alternating currents up to 4000 A to low currents of 1 or 5 A. Thanks to the MCR current transducers, you can measure DC, AC, and distorted currents.

Current and voltage measurement

Monitor machines and motors

The CONTACTRON motor and machine manager merges precise energy measurement with the display and monitoring of important parameters of motors, machines, or other three-phase loads. Freely configure its switching and signaling thresholds.

Record and monitor energy data

The network-capable EMpro energy measuring devices detect and monitor the electrical characteristics of your machines. Configure and integrate the devices very quickly and intuitively via the web-based user-guided installation wizard, and benefit from additional intelligent functions.

Acquire machine data and transfer it to the cloud

In addition to performing conventional control tasks, the PLCnext Control devices also acquire operating data and transfer the preprocessed data to Proficloud. Along with IEC 61131-3, the PLC can also be programmed in high-level languages or can use apps from the PLCnext Store.

Worldwide access to data

Proficloud provides you with an overview of your machine and system data from anywhere in the world. For example, you can create a custom dashboard as the basis for evaluating and analyzing your operating data. This enables you to continuously improve processes based on the Proficloud solution.
