ACT Smart Clean Systems are taking the industrial parts washing industry into the future with our “fly by wire” systems that lower your maintenance downtime while increasing your upside and profits!
ALL-NEW ACT SMART CLEAN SYSTEMS
Parts Washers Driven by Data
IIoT with CPS (cyber-physical systems) and cloud-based processes allow us to gather and interpret data in ways that weren’t possible before, and the impact of those technologies is being felt in every aspect of manufacturing, from production to maintenance to marketing, and even then on to the final products we create.
See To Believe
We Have All The Features
Global Connectivity
ACT now has the ability to connect to any ACT Smart Clean system globally that is connected to the internet!
Downtime Reduction
No need to shut down the machine to make changes to sensor parameters. ACT Smart Link allows remote parameterization without incurring unnecessary downtime. Parameters are easily changed via the PLC.
Remote Monitoring
ACT’s Smart Clean machines utilize state-of-the-art sensors that deliver real-time data back to the main controller or your SCADA for functions and performance that can be used to maximize production while vastly reducing downtime.
Simplified Maintenance
ACT’s Smart machinery components don’t require re-programming; if a replacement is required, simply unscrew the ethernet cable, drop in the new component, re-connect, and presto! Back to production!
Modern Digital vs. Old School Analog
ACT Smart Link transmits a true digital process signal for more reliable and accurate signals than aging analog outputs. The system identifies a component to maintain for you. The need for analog sensors is history and we even eliminated costly analog cards.
Portals
ACT’s machinery can be set up to push notifications such as faults, alarms, etc. directly to you via e-mail/text so you’ll know when a machine is being operated outside of process parameters. By keeping the machinery within the required goal posts production is more consistent, with higher quality for your customers. It’s a win-win upgrade.
INDUSTRY 3.0 vs INDUSTRY 4.0
Old Industry 3.0 systems tried to “automate” however the limitations inherent in non-communicative components and sensors means that the humans on the floor must be onboard to monitor and diagnose. Very limited “automation” in fact. ACT’s adoption and transformation of Industry 4.0 to the cleaning and processing machine industry changes the game with vast quantities of data available to lessen the human interface.
