INSPHERE has announced the launch of IONA, a new flagship product that will create a step change in the productivity of industrial automation and generate process data to unlock the potential of a wide array of digital manufacturing technologies. IONA is a network of sensors and software that can simultaneously capture alignment data from industrial robots and other points of interest, be that the workpiece, fixture or cell datums. Using IONA, engineers can monitor the performance of automated systems and ensure they are performing consistently in accordance with the simulated or programmed intent. The data generated with IONA can be used to make corrections either as a one-off system calibration or as part of regular dynamic adjustments compensating for natural process variation. The outputs of IONA are: Improved system accuracy, allowing more processes to be automated and improving process quality; Correction to robot programs, enabling faster commissioning and validating a digital twin; Reduced automation downtime, enabled by predictive maintenance using IONA SPC trend data. https://insphereltd.com Mike Richardson Author Mike Richardson Tags Insphere Automation Industry 4.0 machine tool verification systems Share This Article Tweet Share Share Share Subscribe to our FREE Newsletter Related Articles Foresight Williams Technology EIS Fund invests £1.5m into Insphere Confident cuts INSPHERE to unveil machine tool verification system at AMRC Most recent Articles Boeing wins another 737 MAX order for 15 aircraft Muirhead now an approved service centre for Astronics test systems US Navy reveals more on plans for sixth generation fighter jet Share This Article Tweet Share Share Share Subscribe to our FREE Newsletter
