SKF has launched SKF Microlog Inspector, the next generation SKF MARLIN inspection system, providing the ability to manage workflow and data collection effectively, within and between different plant disciplines through one easy-to-use, handheld device. The system is compatible with most Windows Mobile portable devices, enabling existing handhelds to be used, if required, when performing process and quality inspections essential for operational efficiency across a range of manufacturing industries.
The SKF Microlog Inspector is an independent application, which can be installed on many Windows Mobile portable computers, collecting data on plant operation for analysis on predictive and preventative maintenance, safety, inspections, condition monitoring and contractors. Additionally, this new inspection system can be applied in work scheduling, environmental, occupational health and safety administration inspections, and other regulatory and safety requirements, documenting inspection data for compliance reporting and audits.
The application links to the SKF @ptitude Inspector software package where data can be further analysed, reported and shared across the entire plantwide SKF @ptitude Asset Management System. The SKF Microlog Inspector can collect data relating to velocity, acceleration, temperature and FFT via a wireless sensor; the wireless machine condition detector. Routine collection of vibration data during inspection rounds makes critical machine data available immediately and the intuitive user-interface provides prompts for corrective actions when alarm levels are triggered.
