Wireless monitoring project: Vale Salobo and Dynamox

More than 2,000 spots monitored on critical machines. The Dynamox Team recently completed a project to install more than 2,000 wireless vibration and temperature monitoring sensors in approximately 400 assets at Vale’s Salobo mine, located in Pará. This represents a significant evolution in the amount of data collected by continuously monitoring the equipment, contributing to… Continue reading Wireless monitoring project: Vale Salobo and Dynamox

Dynamox’s solution identifies bearing housing defect 

The Dynamox solution was responsible for the early identification of a defect in the bearing housings of a modular vibrating screen.     Located at a client’s plant in Antônio Dias – MG, the vibrating screen is considered a critical asset for the production process and is therefore monitored by Dynamox’s wireless system.   At the end of… Continue reading Dynamox’s solution identifies bearing housing defect

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

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

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
