Process monitoring

Process monitoring in production is essential to ensure the highest quality and precision.

TOX^® Process Monitoring offers you comprehensive options for measuring, analysing and storing your production processes. With our process monitoring system, you can reliably store data and seamlessly track component information. This is particularly important for the manufacture of high-quality products in large quantities. Rely on our process monitoring in production to optimally fulfil your quality requirements and efficiently monitor your production facilities.

Put your trust in TOX^® for reliable monitoring and reproducible precision!

Process monitoring is a crucial component of modern production processes. It makes it possible to precisely monitor and control all steps in production. By using advanced process monitoring software, companies can collect, analyse and optimise data in real time.

Common process monitoring methods include statistical process control, thermographic analysis and inline inspection. These methods help to increase the quality and efficiency of production.

Process monitoring is used in almost all branches of industry, including automotive production, electronics manufacturing and the food industry. Process monitoring in production not only enables you to ensure product quality, but also to reduce production costs and minimise downtime.

Use the advantages of process monitoring to optimise your processes and increase your competitiveness. Process monitoring is the key to successful and efficient production.

The TOX^® Software provides you with real-time insights into the system data. The robust, milled aluminium housing of the TOX^® UDI Panel conceals a powerful PC that ensures maximum reliability and efficiency. Use our process monitoring to optimise the monitoring and control of your production.

The functionality of our process monitoring software goes far beyond that of a conventional human-machine interface (HMI) touch screen panel. With our Universal Data Interface (UDI), your processes are optimally prepared for the digital transformation and Industry 4.0. Utilise the latest monitoring technologies to make your processes more efficient and transparent. Our solution enables a seamless connection and offers you comprehensive insights into your production processes. With TOX^® Process Monitoring, you get a monitoring system that is not tied to specific machines and can therefore be flexibly applied to different processes or systems.

With the new TOX^® Software, various systems from the TOX^® Portfolio can be flexibly combined with each other. This enables a networked system that integrates, for example, process monitoring (PMO), servo presses or joining modules (such as ElectricDrive Core) and other technologies such as SPR. This combination creates a standardised data export function across all applications.

A key advantage of the solution is the extended monitoring option for systems. By integrating process monitoring (PMO) and additional sensors, further processes in the system can be recorded and monitored. The collected data is then merged on a common interface, enabling seamless transmission all the way to the cloud. The result is consistent, comprehensive control and data utilisation across the entire system.

When developing the UDI panel, great importance was attached to a powerful and robust design:

• Touch panel and PC in one: simple installation and cabling

• Hardened Linux^® operating system for maximum IT security: TOX^® OperatingSystem

• Exchange of quality data: Compatible with a wide range of protocols such as MQTT and OPC UA (e.g. XML or JSON)

• Option for archiving and traceability: 250 GB SSD hard drive

• IP66 protection class: protection against dust and water

• Fanless and without other slots: Well protected against dirt and environmental influences

TOX^® pressing monitors offer precise process monitoring, in which exact functional relationships between force and displacement are verified. This technology is not only indispensable in fully automated production lines, but is also used at simple manual workstations, especially for quality control in incoming goods. Put your trust in our solution for reliable and efficient process monitoring.

Discover the powerful CEP 400T process monitoring, specially developed for clinching. This innovative solution enables you to seamlessly monitor and document your quality parameters.

Our modern force sensors measure the press force during the joining process. At the same time, the displacement measuring system monitors the cylinder movement to ensure that the control dimension "X" is maintained. As soon as the displacement measuring system signals that the control dimension "X" has been reached, the measured press forces are compared with the target press forces. The TOX^® Joint is OK if the measured pressing force is within the specified range.

The resulting residual base thickness "X" correlates with the shear tensile strength and head tensile strength, provided that the joining parameters and the service life of the TOX^®-Tools are observed.
