Book Design of an Intelligent Embedded System for Condition Monitoring of an Industrial Robot

Download or read book Design of an Intelligent Embedded System for Condition Monitoring of an Industrial Robot written by Alaa Abdulhady Jaber and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis introduces a successfully designed and commissioned intelligent health monitoring system, specifically for use on any industrial robot, which is able to predict the onset of faults in the joints of the geared transmissions. However the developed embedded wireless condition monitoring system leads itself very well for applications on any power transmission equipment in which the loads and speeds are not constant, and access is restricted. As such this provides significant scope for future development. Three significant achievements are presented in this thesis. First, the development of a condition monitoring algorithm based on vibration analysis of an industrial robot for fault detection and diagnosis. The combined use of a statistical control chart with time-domain signal analysis for detecting a fault via an arm-mounted wireless processor system represents the first stage of fault detection. Second, the design and development of a sophisticated embedded microprocessor base station for online implementation of the intelligent condition monitoring algorithm, and third, the implementation of a discrete wavelet transform, using an artificial neural network, with statistical feature extraction for robot fault diagnosis in which the vibration signals are first decomposed into eight levels of wavelet coefficients.

Book Profitable Condition Monitoring

Download or read book Profitable Condition Monitoring written by BKN Rao and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To engineer and manufacture is human. Manufactured goods are subjected to severe international competitive forces. Consumers' perceptions towards total quality, reliable performance, health and safety, environmental issues, energy conservation and cost of ownership are changing day by day. Manufacturers have no alternative but to satisfy the consumer's increasing demands with maximum efficiency and profitability with minimum delay. Failure to meet such a challenge is clearly undesirable and will, no doubt, result in the closure of manufacturing activities, which is still regarded by many as the backbone of our national economy. Manufacturing for profitability should be the number one concern of all serious minded and responsible people. To help the industries to meet these challenges and to manage efficiently well into 1990s and beyond, the Technical Advisory Committee in their wisdom decided the appropriate theme, Profitable Condition Monitoring, for this year's International Conference, to coincide with the great European market to be opened in 1993. The benefits from condition monitoring are well documented. Condition monitoring is now an affordable technology which is waiting to be fully exploited by all sectors of industry, both big and small. Many companies have realised the following benefits from condition monitoring: • optimisation of profits • maximisation of production • cost-effective maintenance • minimisation of product liability • maximisation of total quality. As the contents of this proceedings reveal, there have been a number of significant advances in condition monitoring of which companies ought to be taking full advantage.

Book Engineering Condition Monitoring

Download or read book Engineering Condition Monitoring written by Ron Barron and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1996 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintenance can account for an extremely large proportion of the operating costs of machinery. Additionally, the downtime caused by machine breakdowns can severely affect the productivity of factories or the safety of products. Thus, it is becoming increasingly important for companies to consider the monitoring of their equipment 'in situ' in order to reduce the number of breakdowns experienced and to avoid the unnecessary cost and delay caused by repairs. Engineering Condition Monitoring provides an overview of all aspects of this important technique paying special attention to the vibration analysis of rotating machines. The text will be suitable for industrial practitioners and managers along with postgraduate students involved in mechanical and manufacturing engineering. The authors have used their vast collective experience both in industry and as academic teachers to produce a broad, descriptive text, concentrating on practical aspects, that will be invaluable to anyone involved in the operation or sub-contracting of condition monitoring methods.
