NIKKEN I/O
NIKKEN are leading the way by utilising the latest, cloud-based technology to access big data during the lifetime of our products.
Providing you with full Industry 4.0 compliance, we’ve created a new passive, continuous, condition monitoring system (NIKKEN I/O) that runs day in, day out to ensure that you are kept up-to-date on the running of your NIKKEN products. Being able to sense and predict failure is a major asset to both the end-user – in maintaining uptime of machines, and to NIKKEN itself – to research and develop our products for the future.
HOW I/O WORKS
- Sensors inside the rotary table send real-time data wirelessly while in production.
- A receiver on the workshop floor receives this data, performs the required processing, and enters it into a database.
- NIKKEN I/O uses a standalone web-based dashboard, providing rich, customisable data visuals with an at a glance flagging system, so you can see the beginning of an issue before it becomes a fault.
- Running over wi-fi, NIKKEN I/O can be connected to any local network, or even as a global cloud-based solution.
