LHWebPlatform – the basis for your digitization projects

Liebherr offers a modular platform consisting of data profiles, interfaces and the various LHWebPlatform apps. These elements can be used to develop customized solutions which are tailored perfectly to the requirements of the customer. The spectrum of applications ranges from simple monitoring tasks to far-reaching industry 4.0 scenarios – such as process logging, manufacturing analysis and production optimization. A wide variety of transmission paths and protocols – from fieldbus (Profibus, Profinet) to OPC-UA or also umati – enable the connection of the machines, for example to your superordinate systems.

LHEnergyInfo

Efficient monitoring of consumption with LHEnergyInfo

Discover the future of energy consumption monitoring with our LHEnergyInfo app. This innovative application gives you a constant overview of your current power and energy consumption data – whether it’s electricity, compressed air or cooling lubricant. Track your consumption over time and analyze the energy requirements for each workpiece. You can also view the energy costs and CO2 equivalents per workpiece at the same time.

Our app helps you monitor energy consumption in real time and analyze precisely where energy can be saved. That not only reduces your costs, but also makes a significant contribution to sustainability. Experience a whole new level of transparency and optimize your processes like never before.

LHSignalInfo

The LHSignalInfo application offers many possibilities:

Draw conclusions about the quality and efficiency of your machine and your production based on the evaluation of these signals
Analyze the recorded signals and export them, for example to Excel, taking into account all measuring points and their exact time stamp
Define your own rules, for example, what the colors of the signal light mean
Choose from a variety of interfaces and protocols such as OPC UA, MT Connect, MQTT or umati

System information and live demo

LHWebPlatform is a web application that runs with its database on customer (local) server hardware. Accordingly, the data is safeguarded against external access.
Machine data is never sent to Liebherr or the internet. One-click-setup makes it possible to set up the system without specialized expertise. The server only needs to be accessible from the connected machines.
The app is continuously developed and enhanced. To enable the app functionality, a license key must be provided.

Connect your manufacturing landscape: LHOpenConnect

With the product and service action LHOpenConnect, we make it possible to connect your machine tool to your production peripherals – and with maximum system openness.

The focus here is on the exchange of manufacturing data between a host computer, machine tools and Gear inspection machines. Furthermore, stations for manufacturing control and manufacturing management can be integrated. Changes that arise, for example, as a result of variations in dimensions, temperature changes or tool wear, can thus be corrected as quickly as possible.

In addition, suspect parts can be systematically detected and rejected, or remachined.

The overall aim is to transfer order, production and measurement data with the highest possible degree of automation in order to eliminate errors while maximizing production speed and manufacturing quality.

LHToolIdent: unified definition of gear tool data

Liebherr controls support different standard tool data formats (e.g. DIN4000, GDE).

Using LHToolIdent all geometrical and wear data of tools can be stored on RFID chips. This way tools with up-to-date data become exchangeable between gear machines, tool setters and the backend systems of the end-user factory and the tool manufacturer.

For optimal convenience and compatibility, Liebherr has defined a standard data structure to be stored on the tool covering all supported gear technologies – be it hobbing, grinding, shaping, or skiving. This data structure is open source, and it may be freely integrated into other systems.

LHProcessMonitoring: Efficient inline process monitoring for manufacturing

The LHProcessMonitoring software for inline process monitoring visualizes the manufacturing process. By analyzing the training data obtained, the software determines limit values that are used to continuously monitor the manufacturing process. This allows errors that could lead to noise anomalies to be identified and rectified at an early stage.

The software is optionally available as part of the LHGearTec operating and programming interface. This integration illustrates the consistent expansion of our comprehensive digitalization product portfolio.

LHProcessMonitoring optimizes the entire process with fault-free components and cost savings

Thanks to continuous recording and transparent evaluation, the LHProcessMonitoring software enables the operator to effectively optimize and stabilize the manufacturing process. Limit violations are automatically recognized, preventing defective components from entering the rest of the value chain.

LHProcessMonitoring guarantees the consistent quality of each individual gear and can replace a downstream full inspection that uses a single flank gear testing system or master gear. This saves considerable investment and set-up costs with a comparatively small initial investment.
