tools as active and intelligent process components – so one imagines at Leitz industry before 4.0. “In the course of its life cycle produces a lot of tools each individual data,” said Andreas Kisselbach, Head of Research and Development at Leitz. “In the industry 4.0 tools exchange data via the Internet with their networks of.” Network partners of the tool are, for example, the machine and the tool service. The communication process within the network will automates run without active intervention of the user would be required.
At Ligna stalls of Leitz first prototypes of networked tools were seen. They contain tiny data chips with individual tool ciphers that lead into a cloud. There are data as master data and application data, corrective and limits, tool life and service cycles Saved and constantly updated. On diesewiederum machines, service technicians and users can access.
The network tools are advancements of chip tools in 1993 brought Leitz on the market. Their chips are used as storage media for geometry data and correction values, which transmit the Leitz-Service Employees by each tool in this service.
