DMG MORI presents “Machine Tool 4.0” at IMTEX 2017

DMG MORI and Schaeffler Technologies presented the innovation project “Machine Tool 4.0” as a milestone on the road to future-orientated production, process and maintenance optimisation at the IMTEX 2017.

Although not visible from the outside, the two DMC 80 FD duoBLOCK® machines of the innovation project “machine tool 4.0” are nevertheless packed full with intelligent sensors as the basis of condition-oriented service and maintenance. To achieve this more than 60 sensors have been installed on elementary components of the FD machine.

Calculable availability of means of production ranks as a decisive factor in the realisation of cyber-physical production networks. This has led to the optimisation of service and maintenance processes progressively moving away from the back burner and into the limelight. That is why DMG MORI has collaborated with Schaeffler Technologie to start the innovation project “Machine Tool 4.0” taking the mill/turn centre DMC 80 FD duoBLOCK® as a specific example.

To achieve their aims more than 60 sensors have been installed on elementary components of the FD machine. Together with other (obligatory) status information all data are now captured in realtime and analysed using specially developed algorithms. As a result the evaluation of the data provides qualified insights into the probable occurrence of different process and production faults.

This in turn enables users to take targeted measures in advance for the first time, where currently unplanned machine downtimes quickly render capacity planning a waste of time. The extent to which the above-mentioned theory is actually implemented in day-to-day machining routine can be experienced live by visitors to the DMG MORI stand at the EMO in Milan.

Energy and running costs have also been reduced significantly in addition to the increase in availability and simultaneous reduction of service costs. This new “knowledge” also constitutes the basis for the sustainable optimisation of processes, products and machines.
