DEK has enhanced the machine maintenance and monitoring features of Interactiv Internet-based support, to allow remedial actions to be planned during scheduled maintenance visits.
 
Machine owners can also call-up the service history of each machine in the enterprise by remotely accessing the Merlin database, and can identify and check availability of spare parts and upgrades while standing at the machine.
 
The new predictive maintenance capability is enabled by ISCAN (Intelligent Scalable Control Area Network) , which enhances control and monitoring of machine subsystems and is featured on the latest Instinctiv and Micron-class machines. The CAN fieldbus allows monitoring of subsystem parameters, such as operating voltages and temperatures, which is stored in on-board memory. Using Interactiv to analyze this data remotely allows a range of subsystem conditions to be anticipated before failure. Maintenance or replacement can then be planned to coincide with a regular maintenance visit.
