Systemsfor vibration monitoring –the optimum solutionfor every requirement

Early detection of potential faults andtheir causes on the basis of individualvibration characteristics and otherinfluencing factors.

Monitoring of overall vibration accordingto ISO 10816.Detect resulting damage at an earlystage, avoiding consequential damageand increasing life spans.

Avoid damage to machine components,tools or workpieces via permanent moni-toring and very short response times.The integration into the PLC makes itpossible to adjust the vibration monitoringto the process of the machine or theplant.

The ifm group of companies:our own development and productionwith high quality standard.The detection and integrated evaluationof vibration signals serves as a basis forthe seamless integration of onlinecondition monitoring into manufacturer-independent automation and controlsystems.

For industrialapplications

Vibration monitoring –detect damageat an early stage and avoidconsequential costs

Standardized:Compliant to ISO 10816.

Reliable:

Protection against machinedamage.

Flexible:Easy integration in the application.

Reliable:Increase of uptime.

Looseness, unbalance

Misalignment

Monitor vibration velocity

The vibration sensor VK monitorsonline the overall vibration conditionof machines and plants according toISO 10816. The sensor measures the rmsvibration velocity on a non-rotatingcomponent surface and triggers analarm if the machine vibrations are toostrong.

Detect unbalance and shocks in time.

Machine vibrations can quickly exceeda permissible level due to unbalance,misalignment or bearing damage. Theresult: unexpected failures and shorterlifetime. With the VN sensor vibrationsand shocks are continuously detected,indicated and documented.

5

Monitor up to 4 measurement points.

With the sensor type VSA / VSP machinevibrations can also be measured atinaccessible places. Up to 4 measuringpoints can be monitored and docu-mented with the diagnostic electronicstype VSE. The Ethernet and fieldbusinterfaces simplify networking andremote diagnostics.

Why vibration monitoring?

Every machine generates vibrations during

operation. These vibrations can quickly

exceed a permissible level due to e.g.

unbalance, misalignment or resonances.

An increase in the oscillation amplitude

has a negative effect on the machine

condition. The result: unexpected failures

and shorter lifetime.

Solution with efector octavis:

The overall vibration velocity is used in

industry standards to evaluate the status

of the complete machine. ISO 10816 cate-

gorizes machines and recommends limit

values for the strain caused by vibrations.

efector octavis monitors if the permissible

degree of machine vibrations is exceeded.

If damage is detected at an early stage,

the affected components can be replaced

and consequential damage can be avoided.

Why condition monitoring?

Condition monitoring enables early

detection of arising machine damage.

So, maintenance can be planned and the

residual life of important components

can be used accordingly.

Vibrations that influence quality can be

detected automatically in order to avoid

reject parts.

Counters can be used to determine produc-

tion variables (operating hours, production

hours, good/bad parts, reject rate,...) and

factors influencing the components’ life-

time (shock, time of exposure to increased

amplitudes, temperature, power, rotational

speed,...).

Solution with efector octavis.

efector octavis is a vibration monitoring

solution which not only detects vibration

data, but also carries out signal analysis

and machine diagnosis directly on the

machine.

The machine condition is determined

locally and transferred to the controller /

process control level via alarms or as con-

dition values. In addition, the unit features

an onboard memory to store the trend

history of all diagnostic characteristics.

Dynamic:Monitoring of dynamic forces,e.g. in milling processes.

Fast:Response times of 1 ms.

Reliable:Machine, tools and workpiecesare protected against expensiveconsequential damage.

Preventive:Early condition monitoring avoidsunplanned failures.

Integrated:Direct connection to the machinecontrol via a fieldbus interface.

Avoid consequential damageto machine tools.

Changes in the cutting forces such ascaused by blunt drilling machines orswarf jam are detected on the basis ofthe changed vibration characteristics.Each tool can be assigned individualtolerance limits e.g. a warning andswitch-off threshold. Damage to theworkpiece is reliably prevented.

Alarm

Warning

Why machine protection and

process monitoring?

Faulty settings and process parameters or

wrong tools can lead to crash situations

between components and tool spindle, to

high strain of the spindle (increased wear)

or to bad quality. This results in high

consequential costs, a shortened lifetime

and rejects.

Solution with efector octavis:

The permanent measurement and evalua-

tion of different vibration characteristics

enables ideal monitoring and diagnostics

of the tool spindle.

Based on the dynamic increase in power,

crash situations are detected in time and

displayed. The switching output can react

to the crash within a millisecond in order

to minimize or even avoid consequential

damage.

The integration of the vibration monitoring

into the machine control via the fieldbus

interface enables an ideal adjustment of

the evaluation (adjustment of the alarm

thresholds, suppression of characteristic

values that cannot be evaluated during

processing, e.g. spindle bearing) to the

current operating status of the machine.
