Crusher Data Acquisition and Remote Operation & Maintenance System Solution

 


A large mineral processing enterprise owns dozens of crushers, which are widely applied in core processes such as ore mining and construction aggregate production. Due to long-term operation under harsh conditions of high load, strong vibration, and high dust, key components wear out quickly and are prone to hidden faults. The traditional operation and maintenance (O&M) model relies on manual inspections, resulting in delayed fault detection and slow maintenance responses. To address this pain point, WideIOT utilizes an industrial intelligent gateway + remote O&M system to achieve precise data acquisition and intelligent remote O&M for crushers.

By leveraging the gateway's multi-protocol compatibility and stable data transmission capabilities, combined with a cloud-based management platform, comprehensive acquisition of crusher operational data, remote equipment control, intelligent fault预警 (warning), and closed-loop work order management are realized. This approach打通 (facilitates) the entire process of "data acquisition - remote O&M - decision support," reducing O&M costs and enhancing equipment operational stability and production continuity.

Implemented Functions

  1. Multi-Dimensional Data Acquisition
    The gateway supports multiple industrial protocols to collect key operational parameters of crushers (such as crushing force, motor current, rotational speed) and equipment status (such as online status, wear of consumable parts, lubricant temperature), transmitting them in real-time to cloud or local servers.


  2. Edge Computing and Warning
    With a built-in edge computing module, data is processed locally to identify anomalies and warn of potential faults in real-time, reducing the burden on the cloud and improving response speed.


  3. Remote Programming and Debugging
    Engineers can remotely program and debug the crusher PLC via secure channels, reducing the frequency of business trips and lowering costs.

  4. Real-Time Fault Alarming and Dispatching
    When a fault occurs, the system automatically pushes information (via WeChat, SMS, email) to O&M personnel, specifying fault details and automatically generating maintenance work orders.

  5. O&M Work Order Management
    Supports the entire workflow of work order creation, editing, dispatching, review, and acceptance, automatically recording the handling process to form an O&M knowledge base.

  6. Unified Equipment Management and Visualization
    Enables unified equipment management, providing equipment information queries (such as serial number, location, operating hours) and a visualization dashboard to display equipment status and trends of key parameters.

What is an Industrial Gateway?

  In the era of Industry 4.0, where smart factories and interconnected systems dominate,   industrial gateways   have emerged as critical components for enabling seamless communication, data exchange, and automation across diverse industrial environments. But what exactly is an industrial gateway, and why is it indispensable in modern manufacturing and process control? This article explores its definition, functions, types, and real-world applications. Definition of an Industrial Gateway An   industrial gateway   is a specialized hardware or software device designed to bridge communication gaps between incompatible industrial networks, protocols, or devices. It acts as a translator and router, ensuring that data from legacy machinery, sensors, controllers, or cloud platforms can be understood and utilized by other systems. Unlike standard networking gateways, industrial gateways are built to withstand harsh environments (e.g., extreme temperatures, v...

IoT Solution for DCS Data Acquisition of Stackers and Reclaimers

图片
  In thermal power plants, stackers and reclaimers play a crucial role in storing and conveying raw materials. They execute various automated instructions through PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) and DCS (Distributed Control Systems), such as allowing stacking, allowing reclaiming, peripheral reclaiming operation, emergency shutdown of stackers and reclaimers, stacking operation, stacking faults, reclaiming faults, reclaiming circuit, and more. These instructions provide reliable assistance for enhancing production efficiency and management levels. To achieve DCS data acquisition and enable remote monitoring and precise management of stacking and reclaiming operations, WideIOT offers an IoT solution based on industrial smart gateways. By connecting to the central control room’s DCS, the gateway can adapt to protocols and perform data acquisition. The collected data is then transmitted to a remote monitoring cloud platform, enabling functions such as visual display, remote moni...

IoT Solution for Digital Transformation in Discrete Manufacturing Industry

图片
  For enterprises aiming to achieve smart manufacturing and digital transformation, the most challenging and core aspect lies in digitizing the production process.  This is particularly true in the discrete manufacturing sector, where products are often assembled from multiple components through a series of discontinuous processes. The production process involves numerous variables and uncertainties, all of which need to be captured and monitored. Taking the automotive manufacturing industry as an example, the production process includes stamping, welding, painting, and final assembly.  The equipment involved ranges from stamping machines, welding robots, painting robots, drying ovens, and assembly robots to ancillary PLCs, sensors, and instrumentation. Data such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, voltage, and current are crucial determinants of a vehicle's quality. In response, WideIOT provides data acquisition gateways that connect to PLCs, instrumenta...
