Technology for Mining Industry Conveyor control solution In the mining industry there are lots of raw material conveyors to transport the raw material from underground facilities to the processing plant. The mineral bearing rock has to be moved over a long distance via robust conveyor systems. These conveyors can be longer than 2 km and have to be very flexible due to changing’s in the locations of the mining fields. ifm electronic developed a conveyor control system which allows connection of all the stations of a conveyor system e.g. rope switches, emergency stop switches, belt alignment switches,...

Technology for Mining Industry For this purpose, the repeater separates the primary and secondary side electrically to achieve increased safety in case of a short circuit. An unlimited amount of repeaters may be operated in star configuration but no more than two in sequence. Together with the repeater, a further AS-interface power supply unit must be used to provide power to the additional AS-Interface circuit. Slaves are available in many designs, binary or analogue, for use in the field, either in a switch cabinet or in the terminal box. For the dust / gas areas, solutions with ATEX approval...

Technology for Mining Industry • Low-cost permanent vibration monitoring • Reliable measuring principle by acoustic emission detection • Condition-based maintenance increases machine uptime • Easy parameter setting and set-up • Direct local reading of the bearing condition, progr. switching outputs Introduction The rolling element bearing is a standard element for the construction of machinery and equipment. The correct function of this force-transmitting and moving component is critical for uptime of machinery and equipment. Due to the high dynamic and static loads during operation as well as...

Innovative technology With the ifm efector octavis brings the first vibration sensor with integrated rolling element bearing diagnosis based on frequency analysis on the market. Due to the implementation of a proprietary diagnostic algorithm several different rolling element bearings can be monitored separately and their condition can be displayed via a ”green-yellow-red” logic. Monitoring and diagnosis are performed in real time. Thus vibration measurement technology is integrated into automation technology so that expensive expert know-how for a reliable bearing diagnosis is not required. Therefore...
