NexCOBOT’s Robot Predictive Diagnostic Maintenance Package: The Industry Game Changer

Download White Paper: NexCOBOT’s Robot Predictive Diagnostic Maintenance Package The Industry Game Changer

With the rise of Industry 4.0, robots have become increasingly prevalent and indispensable in manufacturing. However, malfunctions or failur es could still bring unexpected consequences on businesses, sometimes catastrophic. Up to the challenge, NexCOBOT is proud to launch the Robot PDM P ackage, a readyto-use solution for robot diagnostics. The cost-effective offering features machine learning and quick model building as well as complete har dware and software integration, making configuring and fine-tuning robots a breeze, so you always stay ahead and keep downtime to a bar e minimum.

Universal Solution for Training and Optimizing Industrial Robotics

Based on field applications and feedback from robotics end users and vendors, the Robot PDM Package was designed for wherever fast response and quick AI-based robot predictive diagnostics are priorities. It works with various robot types, such as Delta, SCARA, and Articulated Robots. As a total solution, any applicable devices are included: a gateway, sensors, and, a control software suite for monitoring, adjusting, and optimizing robot performance. Thanks to the intuitive GUI and clear application usage of our software suite, dedicated diagnostic engineers is no longer a prerequisite for monitoring robot optimization. Project delivery now can be more budget and time efficient than ever.

Fast Deployment, Rapid Action

Unlike traditional and cumbersome solutions that take weeks to complete installation or even months be ready for mass production, the compact Robot PDM Package from NexCOBOT could be set up in mere minutes and gets working immediately. The built-in adaptive AI engine takes only three minutes to complete the first robot predictive diagnostic through a close track of formulating motion patterns of paired robot system. The auxiliary magnetic sensors are effective standalone and could be attached to any surface near the robots, without having to be tightly mounted on the robots. This neat but powerful package offers an add-on solution that elegantly slips in and out of any industrial setting on demand.

Predictive Diagnostics Improve Operation and Eliminate Downtime

Sensitive to even the most minor changes in behaviors, including patterns, energy, or activity, Robot PDM Package’s sensor arrays detect vibrations to gauge robot output and overall machine health. Alerts and alarms inform you of any sudden decline in robot performance or other suspicious events, while our AI learns your environment to suggest an optimal workflow that you then use to fine tune robot units to achieve better operation

 

Should any robot show even the slightest deviation from desired parameters, a system notification will be sent so that timely maintenance could be done to prevent major failure. Consequently, one of the most common sources of downtime could thus be avoided

High Speed Detection Perfect for Burst Operation Robots

Not all machines operate in a consistent, predictable manner. Quick-action robots perform intricate and sudden moves are seen across industries. An equally fast and adaptable system are thus necessary to help monitor those constantly changing motions on the production floor. The lag-free sensors and diagnostics guarantees the Robot PDM Package stays ahead of the robots at all times. Advanced robot predictive diagnostics algorithms further enable tracing a complete workflow and employ diagnostic data to pinpoint the exact time any change took place, creating a clear context for robot conditions and performance.
