Sustainability Insights IV: IoT for a more sustainable production
Energy consumption is crucial to the carbon footprint of components. Christian Liedtke and Hendrik Nieweg show how connecting machines and robots helps to create more energy-efficient production.
As in all industrial production, KUKA's robotic assembly also consumes energy, for example when processing robot components. But how can the production of such base bodies be made more energy-efficient and thus more sustainable?Christian Liedtke and Hendrik Nieweg from KUKA Digital have also asked themselves this question. Their idea: To save energy and produce more sustainably, the first step is to make data transparent. This is the only way to identify where there is potential for savings.
In our series Sustainability Insights, our IoT experts explain how connecting machines and robots in the cloud can help to create a more energy-efficient production:
