Device for determining the actual state and/or the remaining service life of a construction, materials-handling and/or conveyor machine
The invention relates to a device for determining the actual state and/or the remaining service life of a construction, materials-handling and/or conveyor machine, having a plurality of sensors provided on the construction, materials-handling and/or conveyor machine for recording various state information, a recording unit connected to the sensors for gathering the recorded state information, a central unit able to be connected to the recording unit for evaluating the gathered state information and determining the actual state and/or the remaining service life from the gathered state information, and a display device for displaying the determined actual state and/or the determined remaining service life, wherein the sensors comprise various sensor types for recording at least two different categories of information from the group comprising component oscillations, lubricant properties, component and/or lubricant temperature and drive loading and the central unit is designed to ascertain the actual state and/or the remaining service life on the basis of the at least two different categories of information.
Dispensing system to apply grease to a lens holder and method thereof
A dispensing system to apply grease to a lens holder is provided. The dispensing system includes a lens holder cavity adapted to accommodate a lens holder and a loading area. The loading area includes a damping grease cartridge to accommodate the grease. The dispensing system includes a nozzle apply a predetermined volume of the grease to the inner diameter of the threads. The dispensing system includes a first servo motor to control the height of the lens holder and a second servo motor to ensure a uniform dispense of the predetermined volume grease. The dispensing system is controlled by a programmable logic controller that includes a human machine interface panel adapted to control process parameters. The programmable logic controller and the human machine interface panel are adapted to modify dispensing time, rotation speed, rotation angle to regulate dispensing of the grease.

LUBRICATION HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEM
A computer-implemented method when executed by data processing hardware causes the data processing hardware to perform operations. The operations include collecting, via a health monitoring application, lubrication data at a crank phase of an engine of a vehicle, determining, at the crank phase, a pressure rise difference in oil pressure between a measured pressure and an estimated pressure, determining, via the health monitoring application, whether the measured pressure deviates from the estimated pressure at the crank phase, and generating, based on the measured pressure deviating from the estimated pressure at the crank phase, an alert.
