All of the "Smart Watch x Machine Machine" service developed by Citizen Machiney | New Switch by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun

Citizen Machiney (President of Miyoda -cho, Nagano Prefecture, Keiichi Nakajima) has developed an IoT (Internet of Things) of machine tools using smartwatches.The operation status of the machine can be visualized even remotely, and a constant instructions can be given to the machine.The service is the first to be a machine tool manufacturer.By utilizing the technology of Citizun Group, which has a clock business and a machine tool business, it will promote the efficiency of processing sites based on real -time machinery information, and aim for future practical use.

It has been developed as a new menu of Alcart Live 2, a service that collects various information from automatic lathes and visualizes the state and production status.Through exhibition exhibitions and proposals to customers, we will conduct consideration for specific utilization methods and practical use.

We plan to support smart watches that can be connected to the IoT base "Liiver" of Citizen watches.Equipped with functions such as monitoring of the main axis, manage production, cutting oil, and notification of main axis overheat.You can know the reason why the machine stopped and the predictive information before the machine stopped even in a remote place, and it is possible to improve the efficiency and prepare for measures in advance.

In processing sites that use automatic lathes, there are many cases where workers use multiple units by one person.In some cases, we are leaving the site at meetings.In that case, the need to know the condition of the machine in real time, even remotely, because it is necessary to not notice the lighting of a warning light that informs the machine abnormality, or that the worker needs to move to the machine to confirm the cause of the abnormalities.Is growing.
