, the intelligent monitoring system, uses specialized sensor application technology to monitor the status of the whole machine and automation system in real time. Its Internet of Things (IoT) characteristics and artificial intelligence calculations comprehensively monitor the wearing components of the whole system and are said to improve machine reliability, productivity and equipment lifetime. The solution can be connected with an ERP or IT system to supply real-time data for predictive maintenance, to avoid unexpected downtime, to perform 24/7 intelligent automated production and to increase production capacity, the company says.

Axile automation systems range from small-size pallet systems to extra-large solutions for its range of five-axis machining centers. The pallet solutions allow hours of lights-out production and deliver an exchange of raw and finished workpieces between the machine and a separate holding area. Axile can accommodate the right storage level with an optimized floor space occupancy to fit manufacturing operations of all sizes.

Axiles says that smart machines and automation systems can  provide machinists the peace of mind to embrace 24/7 automation. The company notes that the systems can also last longer, produce higher-quality parts and components, lower the overall cost of ownership and process workpieces faster.
