Implementation on Sugar Grinder
Sugar Mill is used for the production of powdered sugar used in products. It moves the raw material in the form of powdered sugar with the flow created by the fan and reduces its size with the blade components on it and turns it into powdered sugar. The electric motor drives the fan with a belt-pulley system and ensures the flow and processing of the sugar. Since this mill produces powdered sugar, which is one of the main product components, a possible malfunction directly affects the entire production line.

What's inside
13 pages · 4 sections · PDF
- A Sensemore Wired sensor on the fan bearing housing of a powdered sugar mill at one of Turkey's largest food producers, reporting over a field-installed LTE modem.
- The first finding was unbalance, flagged with a possible malfunction in three months; after the mill fan was balanced, overall vibration fell by more than half.
- Monitoring then caught a second, developing fault: rising axial GRMS values and outer race frequencies in the axial envelope spectrum, reported as a potential bearing failure.
- Planned maintenance confirmed both diagnoses in the metal: axial wear in the bearing, a fractured fan blade and a burnt bearing housing.
- Early diagnosis avoided thousands of dollars in downtime and maintenance costs.
