Dynamox’s sensors identify failures in a conveyor belt pulley side frame

Dynamox’s technology once again proved effective in detecting failures in advance. This time, in identifying a problem in the pulley side frame, a complex component to analyze, in Vale‘s conveyor belts. Understand the process that led to problem identification and maintenance:  The following images show the Spectral Envelope graphs, including the circular waveform, before and… Continue reading Dynamox’s sensors identify failures in a conveyor belt pulley side frame

Dynamox identifies failure in paper machine dryer cylinder

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

Predictive maintenance, according to the Brazilian law NBR5462, is “maintenance that ensures the monitoring of assets, based on the systematic application of analysis techniques. Using centralized supervision or sampling methods, it aims to minimize preventive maintenance to a minimum and reduce corrective maintenance”. It is a strategy applied mainly to predict and avoid failures in… Continue reading Complete guide to Predictive Maintenance

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
