Shock Pulse Goes Spectrum

The present study is aimed at establishing the vibration standards for precision machine tools. The machine tools are first segregated and then their vibration data are analyzed for determining the normal vibration level and damage factors (DF). After refining and fixing the vibration standards obtained, they can be used to assess the machinery health.

Enter dynamic AI-powered mapping technology: an AI-powered application that integrates Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, real-time monitoring, and artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize maintenance practices.

When performing condition monitoring tasks, don’t just rely on expensive condition monitoring tools. You would be surprised at the unusual and simple tools that can be used. 

Condition based maintenance offers a large array of benefits if done correctly. It is not enough however to know we are doing a good job. We have to be clear about our goals and we have to be clear about how we are going to measure if we are meeting our goals or not. There are all sorts of fancy software platforms with dashboards that can help us define and measure KPIs, and track and visualize them, but we have to actually use them! 

Motor Condition Monitor has many successful applications in different areas of industry. In this section, three applications of MCM in foundry industry will be presented.

The IR camera is a great tool used in our everyday predictive maintenance endeavors, but it can play tricks on our eyes if we do not investigate beyond what we are observing. Things truly are not always as they seem, here's an example:

Infrared thermography is the science of seeing heat. Thermal imagers have the ability to produce a visual representation of thermal patterns as heating systems’ components are identified and recorded. Maintenance strategies are then planned and carried out before system breakdowns occur.
