This paper presents a signal-based fault detection scheme for input gripping pliers of the blow molding machine in plastic bottling plants, using accelerometers data. The focus diagnosis is on bearings that support movements their mechanical cam. Therationale algorithm lies interpreting pliers\x92 as balls traditional rolling bearing. Then, strategies inspired by bearing are employed and adapte...

Stretch blow molding serves as the primary technique employed in production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. Typically, a stretch machine consists various components, including preform infeed system, transfer heating bottle discharge etc. Of particular significance is temperature control within which significantly influences quality PET bottles, especially when confronted with envir...
