Reliability centered maintenance of manufacturing equipment using infrared termography
Ioan TĂNASE, Adrian Paris
Abstract:. Preventive and predictive maintenance tasks became easier than current methods, by using infrared thermography. IRT shortens testing procedures, emphasizing trouble spots in sophisticated manufacturing equipments Experimental researches conducted by the authors on the thermal behavior of machine tools and industrial robots were used to detect the main thermal sources and temperature values on the equipments. Thermal images captured at different moments, were processed with the additional soft of IR camera and the main temperature values were detected. Analyzing the processed thermograms and their time evolution, were detected the sections and the parts with higher temperatures, which needed for further monitoring and actions for preventive maintenance
Key words: maintenance, manufacturing equipment, infrared thermography, robot.
