Machine condition monitoring
Machine condition monitoring systems are modular components included as an option in ARTIS process monitoring systems, which, on the basis of information from the control system and/or measurements from additionally installed sensors, monitor the condition of machine components such as bearings and guides, e.g. in motor spindles, ball screws or saddle guides.

In many cases the effective ARTIS machine condition monitoring systems can detect imminent damage in good time.

Benefits of machine condition monitoring
• Avoids damages of machine components
• Decreases costs for repairs
• Decreases down time of machine tool
  due to repair by changing worn out components:
  - not too early (too many changes)
  - not too late (damage of components)
    (long repair time and bad quality of produced work pieces)
    (scrap or time for rework)
  - but just in time
