Machine Condition Monitoring System Based on Edge Computing Technology

The core of the publication is the design of a system for evaluating the condition of production equipment and machines by monitoring selected parameters of the production process with an additional sensor subsystem. The main positive of the design is the processing of data from the sensor layer using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Expert Systems (ES) with the use of Edge Computing (EC). Sensor information is processed directly at the sensor level on the monitored equipment, and the results of the individual subsystems are stored in the form of triggers in a database for use in the predictive maintenance process. The whole solution includes the design of suitable sensors and the design of the implementation of the sensor layer, the description of data processing algorithms, the design on the communication infrastructure for the whole system, and tests in the form of experimental operation on the device in laboratory conditions. The solution includes visualization of the production system status for the operator using an interactive online map.
