Using A2B Technology for Fault Detection on Automated Equipment – Cardinal Peak
Summary
Automation is creating new opportunities and challenges, disrupting industries and transforming labor markets as many organizations seek to offload the dangerous or mundane, monotonous tasks that machines already perform better and more efficiently than human employees. Consequently, organizations across industries are seeking innovative solutions that remove humans from the loop while accurately detecting and diagnosing faults in automated systems so that people can focus on the more sophisticated and creative challenges the business faces. If a sensor cannot effectively capture all aspects of the equipment’s performance, detecting problems early or understanding the root cause of an issue becomes increasingly challenging, which can lead to certain faults going unnoticed. This approach ensures the equipment runs efficiently and safely and helps strike a balance between sensor availability and human expertise, providing a more effective fault detection solution. Example A2B Sensor Configuration for Fault Detection on Automated Farm Equipment The main controller communicates with the DSP, which processes the signals from the microphones and sends the data to the A2B transceiver.
