The paper machine dryer cylinder is a very important asset in the production process, and it is monitored by Dynamox’s wireless sensors, together with the DynaDetect automated detection system. On April 5, there was an increase in the vibration level and DynaDetect identified a failure in the outer race of the bearing. After the scheduled… Continue reading Dynamox identifies failure in paper machine dryer cylinder

Complete guide to Predictive Maintenance in Industry 4.0
Predictive maintenance, as defined by the Brazilian standard ABNT NBR 5462, refers to a strategy that enables asset monitoring through systematic application of analysis techniques. It aims to minimize preventive interventions and reduce corrective actions by using centralized supervision or sampling methods. In essence, predictive maintenance is a data-driven approach that focuses on anticipating failures… Continue reading Complete guide to Predictive Maintenance in Industry 4.0

Dynamox solution identifies a defect in a cell agitator motor in advance
Dynamox, through its solution, works strategically with maintenance teams. Its aim is to ensure safety, improve efficiency in maintenance processes, and prevent unplanned shutdowns from damaging the production system. Nexa, Dynamox’s partner, has recently proved the positive impact of the solution. Arley Campelo, Nexa’s predictive maintenance specialist, shared a successful case using the solution, check… Continue reading Dynamox solution identifies a defect in a cell agitator motor in advance
Wireless monitoring of conveyor belt scrapers
Scrapers are essential assets for conveyor belts and, as their name suggests, are responsible for cleaning belts by scraping off dirt. They are usually classified as primary, when they are located at the end of the belt, secondary and tertiary, depending on their location. Proper maintenance is directly linked to the good performance of other… Continue reading Wireless monitoring of conveyor belt scrapers

Visual management in maintenance: visualize actions involving your assets
Visual management is one of the great allies of maintenance teams in keeping track of asset monitoring activities and enabling the status of these tasks to be monitored by everyone.
Dynamox’s sensors prevent bearing defect
Dynamox’s technology is a great ally for maintenance teams, and it was through this technology that a defect in a cooling tower bearing was identified by analyzing the asset’s behavior using sensors and the Web Platform. This made it possible to carry out maintenance actions more than 90 days in advance, in a planned and… Continue reading Dynamox’s sensors prevent bearing defect
Sensors identify electric motor bearing defect in advance
A bearing defect was identified in the main motor of rolling mill 03 – motor 3H, which is a critical asset for the production process and is monitored by Dynamox’s wireless system. The vibration levels of a sensor installed on the motor, more specifically on the drive side, showed evolution and reached the most critical… Continue reading Sensors identify electric motor bearing defect in advance
