Pumps are the heart of the water supply and wastewater industries; keeping them running efficiently places considerable demands on maintenance resources. SKF’s presence at this year’s Pump Centre Conference & Exhibition (11th May, Telford International Centre) will focus on condition monitoring for pumps – and how machine health data can be exploited to achieve more closely tailored and economical maintenance planning and scheduling.
ifm electronic is looking forward to welcoming visitors to Scotland Works with a display concentrating on condition monitoring, the centrepiece of which will be the VNB211, a tool for protecting important machinery.
Bearing frequencies are often hidden within a range of machine signals and harmonics, making it difficult to detect bearing faults at an early stage. Chris Hansford, managing director at Hansford Sensors, explains how a sophisticated signal processing technique can overcome this
PRUFTECHNIK are specialists in Rotating machine maintenance and monitoring systems. For 40+ years we have been market leaders in the development of laser measurement and condition monitoring systems used extensively throughout UK industry.
Tetra Pak’s new condition monitoring service is helping a range of food and beverage manufacturers predict machine failures before they occur. This cuts machine downtime and costs related to maintenance or unexpected failures.
