Title
MultiNet: An intelligent sensor cable
Abstract
In all areas of industrial production and construction, companies have to implement processes with increasing complexity to satisfy their customer's needs in respect of product quality and continuity. To fulfil these requirements, a continuous process monitoring and documentation is required to assure the process quality but without increasing production cost significantly. In our project we develop an intelligent sensor cable which can be easily integrated into industrial processes using industrial communication standards like ProfiBus. To support an easy installation process of our sensor cable, it needs to be self contained; in our case the sensors and the processing unit, required for pre-processing and sensor management, are integrated in the cable. To increase usability, the cable can also be tailored by the customer to the required length. The key application of our sensor cable is the documentation of the concrete curing processes using the integrated temperature sensors for safety critical constructions.
