Industries : Chemical, all industries with inverter-controlled rotating machinery
Equipment : Equipment containing an inverter and a rotating machine controlled by the inverter
Problems : Production stoppage due to sudden abnormalities

  • Rotating machines are controlled by inver ters but if they break down, product quality cannot be maintained and production may stop.
  • Even when using a sensor to monitor the vibration of a rotating machine, it is not possible to uniformly determine the monitoring threshold because the speed is changed using an inverter.

Wide Area Monitoring System solves remote monitoring issues

Facilities that exist in a wide area can be integrated and managed through remote monitoring.
The cloud can be used to reduce time and costs, and to efficiently build monitoring systems.

 

Value through Problem Solving

  • It is difficult to monitor rotating machinery that uses inverter control for signs of abnormalities using vibration monitoring alone. Even so, it is possible to detect "something different" and perform maintenance before any abnormalities appear in the equipment. 
  • Sudden production stoppages can be avoided with advance maintenance.

 

Value through Problem Solving

 

Proposed System Configuration

The output frequency of the inverter and the vibration value of the wireless vibration sensor installed in the rotating machine controlled by the inverter are integrated into the monitoring system. The normal state of the output frequency and vibration values, which change due to inverter control, are learned using the state change detection service. This allows only warnings and alerts to be extracted when equipment malfunctions occur. Since it is possible to detect abnormalities in rotating machinery and inverters before they affect production, it helps to prevent a decline in product quality and production stoppages.
