Condition monitoring
Predictive maintenance with e-connect.monitor
Condition monitoring allows you to observe the condition of your injection molding machine during operation. With regular wear measurement, the remaining service life of process-critical components can be predicted. This helps you avoid unplanned downtime. It also gives you time to plan maintenance and order spare parts in advance.
Your advantages with the condition monitoring solution by ENGEL
Condition monitoring involves checking key machine components directly on site and recording the relevant data. If wear is checked at regular intervals using condition monitoring, the wear trend can be evaluated and the remaining service life of the components reliably predicted. Following a measurement, you will receive a detailed report with all the results. This allows you to plan component replacement in good time – before unplanned downtime occurs.
Preventive maintenance intends regular replacement of wear parts. Condition monitoring, on the other hand, is part of a predictive maintenance plan. Which means, components are replaced as needed. This saves time and money. You can coordinate planned maintenance more flexibly to your production schedule. This results in significantly reduced downtime and process-critical parts that are utilized until the very end of their service life.
Condition monitoring predicts the remaining service life of components and therefore helps you to order spare parts in a timely manner. Knowing exactly what you will need beforehand allows you to make optimum use of your warehouse capacities. For machine maintenance and troubleshooting you can find the availability of spare parts, part costs and delivery times easily in the e-connect customer portal. This makes it more convenient to order the components you need for maintenance in time. In addition, you have access to the complete service history of your equipment.
It is no longer necessary to shut your injection molding machine down to perform wear measurement or inspection of process-critical components. The condition of wear parts is monitored during operation and happens automatically in the background.

Condition monitoring without interrupting production
It is no longer necessary to shut your injection molding machine down to perform wear measurement or inspection of process-critical components. The condition of wear parts is monitored during operation and happens automatically in the background.
I would be happy to talk to you about condition monitoring and predictive, condition-based, maintenance.

What our customers say about the
condition monitoring solution
 "Wilhelm Raber | Praher Plastics Austria")
In the past we spent a lot of time removing the screw. Now the measurement takes only 15 minutes and it’s not even necessary to shut the machine down.
 "Josef Fröschl | Schöfer")
With the condition monitoring tool e-connect.monitor, we can predict the remaining service life of our screws. This opens up the opportunity to plan better ahead and avoid machine downtimes.

How does e-connect.monitor work?
Connectivity and data management of condition monitoring
Due to comprehensive networking of technologies, data security is becoming increasingly important. With ENGEL, your data is safe: Our system meets the latest and highest security standards - you have complete transparency and control over the data connections as well as the transmitted data. A hardened operating system is used to operate the EDGE device which helps minimize security vulnerabilities. The system used is subjected to regular security tests and access is restricted to employees authorized by you.
 "Hannes Zach | ENGEL")
We are continuously expanding the range of applications for our condition monitoring solution. e-connect.monitor can now analyze wear of barrier screws and make reliable statements about their condition.
