SOGEMA is accelerating its development with Sogebox, an Industry 4.0 solution for predictive maintenance
SOGEMA Services has developed Sogebox to help its customers optimize the monitoring and maintenance processes for their electrohydraulic equipment. This predictive maintenance solution is fitted exclusively with Parker components.
''Sogebox enables our customers to monitor their equipment in real time and to have alarm thresholds that allow for immediate action to be taken. This solution enjoys the benefits of the wide range of Parker components and its significant expertise when it comes to IoT.''
Luc Talon, Manager at SOGEMA Services
SOGEMA Services
As an expert in hydraulics, SOGEMA Services (a subsidiary of Orexad Brammer) specializes in the maintenance, repair, and supply of electrohydraulic parts. The company supplies its customers with hydraulic components, and provides a wide range of services, from troubleshooting and repairs (pumps, motors, cylinders, etc.) to oil analyses as well as the maintenance of installations, such as hydraulic presses. Yet given the high level of criticality of certain pieces of equipment, customers of SOGEMA Services needed a solution to monitor the health condition of their strategic equipment.
Monitor the health of equipment and attract new customers
As part of a "win-win" partnership, the SOGEMA Services research department and Parker's IoT department worked together closely to develop a predictive maintenance solution called Sogebox.
The solution also exclusively incorporates Parker components, such as IQAN (a controller with several CAN buses), ICount particle counters, as well as temperature, pressure, and humidity sensors.
This Industry 4.0 solution enables users to:
- optimize predictive maintenance on the hydraulic circuits
- reduce machinery breakdowns and thereby limit production downtimes
- improve their preventive maintenance procedures
“By warning us as soon as pollution starts in its hydraulic power unit, Sogebox has allowed us to avoid losses of €17,200 in new oil, which would also have been accompanied by clean-up operations in the circuits, removal of the components for remediation, and reinstallation of these components.”
A customer using Sogebox in the steel industry
With more than 40 years of experience in hydraulics, SOGEMA Services, based in the Hauts-de-France, carries out, installs and optimises all types of hydraulic projects in the industrial and mobile sectors.
