Introduction

A leading manufacturer and supplier of gears, catering to all the leading manufacturers of commercial vehicles in India used a horizontal machining centre (HMC) which operated in three shifts, offered flexibility in operations and also fulfilled high volume machining needs

Challenge

The Company was facing frequent spindle failure and considerable machine downtime affecting production targets and maintenance costs. The Company was unable to trace the root cause of the recurrent spindle failure for over 2 years.

Solution

The Company chose to install MVS REALTIME 4.0Non the Spindle to diagnose the root cause of the anomaly on the edge device in real-time.

Predictive Maintenance

Our IDE sent increased vibrations data, which was shown on dashboard. This trend was monitored regularly with actual maintenance activities. The trend provided early warning about maintenance needs and predicted possible impacts if not attended in time.

Action

The IDE predicted the root cause of the recurring spindle failure to be spindle motor unbalance. It helped the company take corrective action by rebalancing the spindle assembly and thus eliminated the root cause of the breakdown.
