2 While a few sensor manufacturers have had remote monitoring functionality built into their devices for several years, many OEMs and end users are not aware that they can tap into these simple components for valuable application-level data. Remote connectivity with automated manufacturing systems, once considered the domain of complex, high-end operations, has quickly become a routine requirement across the breadth of the manufacturing industry. And for good reason. The ability to monitor, program, and diagnose systems from virtually anywhere facilitates flexibility in the location of equipment and personnel resources, resulting in lower costs, greater efficiency, and increased versatility to adjust to internal changes and external trends. Remote monitoring also allows industrial engineers and managers at all levels to plan and make decisions in real-time based on data that comes directly from the source the machines themselves. This trend, often called the Internet of Things, is based on a convergence of multiple automation and data communication technologies that, in turn, enable OEMs to incorporate more intricate levels of intelligence into their machines, extending connectivity deeper and deeper into component tiers. In fact, remote monitoring at the PLC level has become quite common across a broad range of industrial automation machines. From the plant floor to enterprise operations The latest iteration in this ongoing advancement of remote connectivity now makes it possible for OEMs and system owners to access data from machine sensors the same devices that helped make automated machinery possible. Many of the recent generation of these sensors is equipped to operate on most of the common remote monitoring communication platforms, including IO-Link, EtherNet/IP, ProfiBUS, ProfiNET, and EtherCat. By integrating the sensors with monitoring capability into a process control system, a user can instantly access the device, in a webpage format for example, and perform setup, diagnostic, and process optimization tasks. Using this connectivity, a manufacturing system owner can gain a unique front line look into the machines efficiency, with data on not only what the sensor is doing, but also how well it s doing that task. Insight into productivity Productivity-oriented intelligence capabilities built into some of today s sensors include remote teach functions or parameter setting that allow owners to commission and adjust the device from a safe and convenient position without having to dismantle the machine. Among the types of sensors already equipped with this functionality are some manufacturers laserbased bar code scanners and image-based code readers, often found in leading-edge automation industries such as automotive manufacturing and packaging. In addition to item identification and verification, these sensors parameters can be easily adjusted for product changeovers or process SICK, Inc. All rights reserved.
3 routing. Users can also fine-tune sensor functions in step with changes in environmental attributes such as ambient lighting, noise, and dust conditions in a sawmill or wood products operations. Some of these sensors are also equipped with large-capacity memory, so they can store a vast amount of operational data for later download and analysis. This feature can help users pinpoint the source of anomalies, gauge specific functions over time to spot trends and evaluate corrective actions, and assess the various factors influencing a machine s overall performance. For example, a meat or food processing plant could tap sensor data to assess how productivity might be affected by variables as diverse as product type and time of day. Connected intelligent sensors can also give condition information of adjacent components, such as variations in fluid flow rates and process temperature, lubrication state, and other metrics that, recognized too late, often lead to costly, unexpected system shutdowns. Similarly, users can communicate directly with certain encoder variants for status information (e.g., temperature range), diagnostics (error codes), and live data without the need to access or alter a PLC s programming. As a result, owners can plan, coordinate, and implement corrective actions and preventive maintenance activities with the minimal effect on overall facility operations. Furthermore encoders that have an integrated web server can be accessed to perform firmware updates directly while they are on the machine, which saves cost and time since replacement of the encoder is not necessary. Health output monitoring What s more, intelligent sensors are also self-diagnosing. Via remote connectivity, a sensor can report on various aspects of its condition, from build-ups of dirt and grease that can interfere with performance to operational inconsistencies that may well grow worse and require component replacement. Alignment changes resulting from wear or impacts with objects can also be reported. For example, safety laser scanners that safeguard workers from process hazards can be remotely checked and adjusted so maintenance employees can address conditions such as dirty or obscured screens, infringed scanner fields, and conditions where a reset may be required, such as the need for device replacement. Signals can be tied back to a PLC via a serial port on the front of the scanner. The scanner can also be connected to a safety controller and then the data is transmitted via a gateway, for example. Some intelligent sensors offer the flexibility to alert owners of the need for maintenance at a specified condition (e.g., minimal vs. excessive dirt build-up). Often, owners can adjust the sensor s parameters to compensate for these conditions, keeping the system operational long enough to coincide with a more convenient, less costly and disruptive maintenance and downtime schedule. And with the advantage of stored settings, the sensors can easily be reset in concert with an overhaul or other major maintenance effort, or to redeploy a machine for a new task SICK, Inc.

4 Does it make sense to monitor sensors? While manufacturers may like the concept of instantly accessible machine-based data, they need to be sure the economics of the added investment to get that information makes sense. Many respondents to a recent Packaging Machine Manufacturers Institute (PMMI) survey about remote machine monitoring cited cost and limited understanding of value as obstacles to pursuing such initiatives. For that reason, a manufacturer should assess a variety of enterprise-, plant-, and machine-specific factors to determine whether sensor-based remote monitoring is desirable, let alone feasible. Among the many considerations are: Company size Number and types of processes or systems to be monitored Existing process management systems, inputs, and metrics Long-term business objectives Asset evaluation Security considerations A manufacturer s existing machine assets will also need evaluation. Intelligent sensors can be retrofitted to many, but not all types of existing industrial equipment, creating the risk of an incomplete picture of system functioning and productivity. Candidate technologies must also be carefully evaluated for their compatibility with existing technical assets, and future-proofed as much as possible to ensure long-term value. Security is likewise an issue. Nearly 70 percent of the PMMI survey s respondents consider their industry-related data moderately to highly sensitive, requiring some measure of protection from outside tampering. Though many intelligent sensors can be accessed and managed with little training, additional technical and maintenance support may be necessary to keep the system abreast with the dynamic, ever-evolving arena of system security. If those resources are not already available in-house, the cost of contracting those services becomes part of the cost/benefit equation. Fortunately, the decision to incorporate remote monitoring via intelligent sensors is not an all-ornothing proposition. The adaptability of these technologies offers the option to perform a staged integration within a company or plant at a pace that is both practical and affordable. Connectivity becomes commonplace However a company elects to proceed, there appears to be little doubt that as connectivity becomes more commonplace across the manufacturing environment, the ability to remotely draw, analyze, and manage data from sensors and similar components will take on greater importance. That information, in turn, will become especially valuable in an ever-increasingly dynamic and competitive global business environment, where tolerances for inefficiencies and extra costs are continually minimized SICK, Inc.

5 The versatility and responsiveness already afforded by the integration of these sensors and remote monitoring technologies is sure to flourish in the coming years, creating a value-added attribute desired by owners of automated manufacturing systems regardless of their size and scope of operation.
