Smart Monitoring

Caption

A new method of continuously monitoring the status of machinery is currently being developed by a research team led by Professor Andreas Schütze (left) of Saarland University. The mobile tablet-based system supplies information on the operational state of industrial machinery and plant equipment and can inform operators if a part needs to be replaced or if a repair can be postponed. The researchers will be showcasing the method using a hydraulic test bench at HANNOVER MESSE. (Right: graduate engineer Nikolai Helwig, who co-developed the hydraulic test bench).
