timTRON - Intelligent sensor technology
"Industry 4.0" has already found its way into many branches of industry and is penetrating ever further into process chains. The networking of systems and processes via digital networks is the industrial future. And for good reason: the intelligent interlinking of production with the communication possibilities of PLCs and the World Wide Web offers numerous advantages. This is urgently needed in view of individual customer requirements, ever faster delivery times and growing demands in terms of sustainability. Modern technologies should therefore ensure greater efficiency and flexibility. The goal: the "smart factory" with machines that communicate with each other and learn independently. Using these processes, companies benefit from significantly higher process reliability, minimised downtimes and considerable cost savings thanks to better planning. In the field of pump technology, Timmer provides a great deal of added value to enable our customers to achieve this. Our pumps are therefore equipped with the intelligent sensor as standard and therefore “Ready for Future”. With the intelligent sensor technology of the timTRON series, Timmer opens up many new possibilities for you in terms of efficiency, digitalisation, statistics, preventive maintenance and process optimisation with the help of your PLC.
