Abstract

Industry 4.0 relies on the adoption of digital technologies to gather data in real time and to analyse it, providing useful information to the manufacturing system. In this paper, what solutions modern production plants that are aspiring towards compliance with philosophy of the Industry 4.0 have to adopt, monitor and analyse the vibration data of the manufacturing systems using existing process and tool monitoring solutions. In addition, detailed explanation of vibration level reading in order to increase the protection of the production sources (machines, devices etc.) against human errors and malfunctions in terms of Total Quality Management (TQM) and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) with the concept’s levels TPM1(operator level) and TPM2(periodic conditional reviews etc.) will be giving with a Montronix system’s integration on a CNC milling machine. Besides, optimization and monitoring function of production process will be demonstrated with related graphs and tables with values of different scenarios.

Highlights

  • The concept of Industry 4.0 has been accompanying us since the early decades of the XXI. century

  • The idea included in Industry 4.0 allows, among other things, the implementation of the so-called predictive maintenance, or strategy for maintenance of machines and devices based on information and prediction

  • Temperature, pressure, vibration, torque power, flow rate, weight, deformation in real time – make measurements that make it possible to create a digital image of the production process

Summary

Introduction

The concept of Industry 4.0 has been accompanying us since the early decades of the XXI. century. When taking into consideration of CNC machines’ operation, it is possible to determine how many final parts will be machined from a given batch of material, how many cutting tools will be used to create a certain amount of parts, how many iterations later the machine tool should be replaced etc. These aspects effect the manufacturing process in an optimal or negative ways. Using actual observations such as vibration, provides an opportunity to take quick action when warning conditions are detected [4]
