ABB launched ABB Ability Condition Monitoring for belts. It uses sensors installed on a conveyor system and tracks data to provide real-time information about machine health.
The solution can track speed, misalignment, damage, thickness and wear, slippage, and temperature of conveyor belts in real time, and therefore anticipate maintenance, avoid unplanned downtime, and improve belt reliability and lifetime, ABB reported.
ABB Ability Condition Monitoring can work as a stand-alone solution or integrated into a control system.
