Accurate sawing requires attention to proper alignment and maintenance. Alignment is critical to modern sawmills using thin kerf saws. In fact, the improvements in machine design were critical to the development of thin kerf sawing systems. About two-thirds of sawing problems are caused by misalignment, not saw preparation. Good alignment reduces down-time and machinery wear and should be part ...

Abstract All industries are fast transforming into smart as part of the sustainable developments in fourth industrial revolution. Predictive maintenance is one most important aspects such industries, to avoid unanticipated machine breakdowns and catastrophic failures. Machine vibration analysis a common tool for predicting state machinery. Vibration involves analysing data collected from machin...

Today’s competitive environment requires that industries succeed in sustaining full production capabilities, while minimizing capital investment. From a maintenance perspective, this means maximizing equipment reliability (i.e., achieving maximum uptime), while extending the plants life. This proactive approach needs a Total Planned Quality Maintenance (TPQM) program, the systemizing of all (i....

The steel rolling process is critical for safety and maintenance because of loading thermal operating conditions. Machinery condition monitoring (MCM) increases the system’s safety, preventing risk fire, failure, rupture. Equipping mill bearings with sensors allows system in service controls heating components. Fiber optic detect condition, vibration, irregular heating. In several systems, acce...
