使用下列技巧提高未来自动化解决方案模块化设计的效率和灵活性。
选择通过低能耗、低维护成本可明显节约成本的技术。考虑气动和电动选项,以识别对特定自动化任务最具成本效益的解决方案。
制定方案时,应能够根据实际需求选择采用成套模块化结构的解决方案,或者选择接口少的简单版本。这样可以避免不必要的复杂性,从而节省成本。只需为真正需要的功能付款, 同时保持系统自由度,使其适应各种变化的要求。
利用标准化组件和接口,从规模效应中获益。标准化零部件更便于采购和维护,简化库存管理。
Choose concepts that are quick and easy to maintain, such as the ability to replace individual modules without shutting down the entire system. A clear, intuitive design with component categories that are easy to understand simplifies work for your service staff. All this minimises downtime and maintenance costs.
Look out for solutions that are designed for high energy efficiency. In pneumatic systems, for example, particularly short tubing lines between the valve terminal and pneumatic drive lead to significant energy savings.
Make sure that your concept is open for the subsequent integration of future technologies such as artificial intelligence. With AI, you can use predictive maintenance to identify faults at an early stage and avoid costly repairs.
