An unplanned production downtime often causes high costs and can result in a lot of effort. In addition, the devices to be monitored, such as pumps, aggregates or motors, are usually scattered throughout the entire production. This makes regular manual measurements of, for example, vibrations or temperatures on the equipment an arduous task. Not to mention the documentation of the results, which is also time-consuming and error-prone. But what is the best way to efficiently prevent possible future failures?

If Balluff GmbH, one of the leading suppliers of high-quality sensor, identification and image processing solutions, has its way, its Portable Monitoring System promises the perfect solution. With the system, which will also be presented at HANNOVER MESSE 2022, the Swabian company offers a cloud-based complete package for monitoring the condition of plant and machinery - consisting of a condition monitoring sensor, mobile gateway and intuitive visualization software. Balluff delivers the components pre-configured ex works, guaranteeing quick and easy commissioning - even without prior knowledge of cloud, IT or software development.
