The "DriveRadar®" category includes MOVIKIT® software modules that compare the calculated data with the actual values of the application, and detects and evaluates deviations or modifications. This enables continuous monitoring and diagnosis of the application to detect and correct anomalies at an early stage.
The software module MOVIKIT® ModelBasedMonitoring is a diagnosis and analysis tool based on mathematical calculation models from a huge range of applications. The calculated data is compared with the application's actual values, and statistical evaluations are performed. Deviations that breach a configured threshold can trigger warnings or alarms. The recorded data may also be exported as a CSV or JSON file and processed for further diagnostics
In contrast to conventional condition monitoring, no reference curves need to be rec-orded to use the software module. This makes the software module suited to chang-ing curve profiles (e.g. for changes in format). In combination with conventional con-dition monitoring, pre-existing reference curves can be transformed into new curve profiles. Reference curves do not have to be taught in again because no wear is taught in and is considered as the normal condition.
Calculated data can be exported and then imported into the SEW Workbench for pro-ject planning purposes. Project planning is therefore even possible for complex curve profiles, which can be mapped by the SEW-Workbench.

The software module MOVIKIT® PowerAndEnergySolution PredictiveChargeControl provides the option of changing the state of charge of the energy storage unit based on the potential height energy of hoists in storage/retrieval systems.
The software module provides the option of changing the state of charge of the energy storage unit based on the potential height energy of hoists in storage/retrieval systems. The positions of the individual lifting axes are offset against each other to reduce or increase the required state of charge of the energy storage unit, based on the expected amount of recuperated energy. A general reserve is kept available for further drives and travel movements. This function is intended to help adapt the state of charge of the energy storage unit specifically to the lifting and travel movements, to save energy, and to reduce the required storage capacity as well as the associated purchase costs of the storage system.
The following figure shows an upward travel movement of the vertical drive followed by a downward travel movement. The state of charge of the energy storage unit is reduced because the lowering movement feeds back a large amount of energy into the energy storage unit.

The software module MOVIKIT® WebVisualization enables web-based visualization based on open standards, e.g. HTML5.
A local web server on the MOVI-C® CONTROLLER provides distributed visualization on several end devices. Access is via a web browser. Due to HTML5, the latest smartphones, tablet computers, and the WOP11D-.. operator panels can also be used as display units.

The "Bundle" category combines several MOVIKIT<sup>®</sup> software modules that are used to configure particular target applications or machine types. Preselected software modules for these machine-specific functions significantly reduce the amount of configuration work required, while package discounts result in far lower costs compared to individual licenses. Bundles therefore save you both time and money!
The core functions included in the machine-specific bundles are synchronization of drives (MultiMotion Camming), the PackML-compliant programming template (AutomationFramework), and machine visualization (Web Visualization).
And to get you to the finished machine faster, we provide you with a perfectly matched StarterSet as a basic package of software and hardware, which you can expand individually, depending on your machine requirements.
