Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to wireless iot approach for health monitoring of vertical wrapping machines in paper manufacturing.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The purpose of this creative system is to keep an eye on the condition of vertical wrapping machines used in the paper production sector. It offers current information on the health and performance of the equipment. With a number of sensors installed, it continuously gathers information on pressure, temperature, vibration, and humidity, allowing for the early identification of possible problems or departures from ideal working conditions. The technology transfers this data to a centralized online dashboard that operators can access over wireless connectivity, allowing for remote monitoring and prompt intervention. This solution increases the longevity and dependability of vertical wrapping machines in paper manufacturing plants by providing actionable insights that reduce downtime, optimize maintenance procedures, and improve operational efficiency.
The invention attempts to address the problem of efficiently keeping an eye on the condition of vertical wrapping machines in paper production plants. Traditional methods of monitoring usually entail manual inspections or recurring checks, which are laborious, ineffective, and prone to errors. Unexpected machine breakdowns or failures can also cause expensive downtime and production delays.
US11492154B2: A self-propelled wrapping machine movable around a load, for wrapping the load with a film of plastic material, includes a self-propelled carriage with a guide, a column fixed to the carriage and slidably supporting an unwinding unit of the film, a sensor to detect surfaces and/or external edges of the load in their total extension and along a detection direction and process related signals. The wrapping machine also includes a control unit to receive the signals from the sensor, calculate a peripheral outline of plan maximum overall dimension of the load based on the surfaces and/or external edges detected by the sensor, and process a wrapping path of the wrapping machine around the load based on the peripheral outline so as to avoid collisions with the load. The control unit controls the guide to guide the wrapping machine along the wrapping path.
RESEARCH GAP: Wireless IoT Approach for Health Monitoring of Vertical Wrapping Machines is the novelty of the system.
US11731793B2: A method, apparatus and program product perform automatic load profiling to optimize a wrapping operation performed with a stretch wrapping machine. Automatic load profiling may be performed, for example, to determine a density parameter for a load that is indicative of load stability such that one or more control parameters may be configured for a wrapping operation based upon the density parameter. Automatic load profiling may also be performed, for example, to detect a load with a nonstandard top layer, e.g., a load with a top or slip sheet, a load with an easily deformable top layer, a load with a ragged top surface topography and/or a load with an inboard portion, such that a top layer containment operation may be activated during wrapping to optimize containment for the load.
