Avoiding major breakdowns with the help of monitoring
Learn how the screen monitoring system has proven its value at Boliden Kevitsa
Running the screen in an optimal way enables less consumption of media, spare parts, oil, energy etc.
Keeps maintenance breaks to a minimum and avoids unplanned maintenance
Shorter, well-planned maintenance breaks and less unplanned maintenance enables more uptime
More uptime and the expert knowledge provided helps to optimize screening performance, resulting in more throughput
Intelligent monitoring is all about optimizing performance and preventing issues that cause downtime. Metrics Monitoring enables operators, controllers and service professionals to see real-time analysis of vibrating screen performance and bearing condition. If there is a problem, the system alerts, offering a chance to perform the necessary maintenance before a minor issue becomes a major expense.
Metrics Monitoring is designed for intuitive operation. Easy to read screen dashboard with OEM insights makes it possible to detect issues well in time. The integrated system delivers complete diagnostics, alarms, and history at a glance. Modular sensors are wireless self-powered and easy to use. All components are engineered to be reliable, even in the toughest mining environments.
Knowledge about improper motion caused by events such as broken springs, insufficient structural support and/or incorrect run speed, etc. offers a chance to plan the maintenance break, keeping the downtime as short as possible and avoiding unnecessary safety risks.
By collecting data in real time, you will get access to fault-finding recommendations and be able to analyze quickly. This makes it easy to try different settings in order to optimize the process according to your current conditions and targets. It will also have a positive effect on sustainability as running the screen in an optimal way enables increased uptime, less consumption of media, spare parts, oil, energy, etc.
