Monitoring the condition of rolling bearings is therefore essential and vibration based monitoring is more likely to detect the early onset of a fault. 2.2 Preventive Maintenance With Preventive Maintenance (PM), machinery is overhauled on a regular basis regardless of the condition of the parts.

Historically, the steel industry has been willing to adopt condition monitoring as a means of improving mill productivity, and many successful programs are extant in mills. Whether contracted out or executed in-house, the same issues governing successful implementation of a condition monitoring program exist.

A condition monitoring system also enables the monitoring of the wind turbine while in operation, instead of shutting it down for a day to conduct inspections. With around 30 thousand wind turbines worldwide approaching their first major service age, a condition monitoring system can be the difference between unplanned and planned maintenance.

Understanding Wind Turbine Condition Monitoring Systems More and more, the wind industry is recognizing the value of condition monitoring. This shift is driven by two major factors: many wind turbine warranties are expiring—exposing owners to the true operations and maintenance costs of wind farms, and component failures are driving excessive

Currently, five of Sappi's European mills use SKF Condition Monitoring on-line as well as portable vibration monitoring systems. Charting success During the assembly of PM11, SKF condition monitoring equipment was built into the machine. Since then, machine vibration has been monitored continuously.

Condition monitoring is a cornerstone in the asset management of pulp and paper plants. Having control of the operating condition is a must to optimize plant profitability. Maintaining availability, maximizing fore-warning time and avoiding secondary damages are the main reasons for applying condition-based monitoring in pulp and paper.

Condition monitoring of roller press components allows for effective maintenance planning and repair, thereby minimising downtime as well as preventing unexpected failures and unscheduled stoppages. The Dalog online condition monitoring system for roller presses detects failures at the motor bearings, gearboxes and grinding rolls at an early stage.
