Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to iot-enabled hydraulic oil monitoring with critical alerts for swing arm tow-behind stump grinder machine in forest.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
With the help of this ground-breaking development, a sophisticated hydraulic oil monitoring system for swing arm tow-behind stump grinder machines used in forestry restoration will now be available. It makes it easier to continuously monitor and analyze key hydraulic system parameters by integrating a variety of sensors, cloud computing, and an easy user interface. The system collects data on temperature, hydraulic oil velocity, and swing arm position. It then uses the Internet of Things (IoT) to send the collected data to a specialized cloud server for in-depth analysis.
The forestry industry faces significant challenges in managing Swing Arm Tow-Behind Stump Grinder Machines, mainly because there isn't a reliable system in place to monitor the hydraulic oil, which is a key component of the machine. Current methods often rely on reactive maintenance, which leads to increased equipment downtime, inefficiencies in operations, and possible long-term damage.
