The need for maintenance DX and the current status of sensing systems
The introduction of robots and DX are accelerating due to labor shortages and rising labor costs due to the serious problem of a declining birthrate. DX initiatives are extremely important for the manufacturing industry, which accounts for 20% of Japan's GDP. In order to efficiently monitor the condition of equipment, a sensing system is essential as a tool to understand the condition of the equipment.
Plants that produce raw materials often operate in extremely harsh environments, requiring highly durable sensing equipment, which is a weak point for systems that communicate wirelessly. The iAMOS sensing system is a product that combines a design that responds to changes in rain, wind, and environmental temperature, as well as a system that is small, lightweight, and intuitively operable.
We have been able to develop products that are durable and easy to handle because we have worked hard to refine them at actual plants, receiving cooperation and advice from our customers, from the prototype testing stage. There are things that happen on site that cannot be understood by computers or theoretical values. Even during actual on-site testing, we received complaints from workers regarding operability, and we completed the product by repeating trial and error based on that feedback.
Sensing technology has been around for a long time, but we will explain its appeal as a system that combines current IoT technology and provide examples.
