USE CASE — PAPER, BOARD & PACKAGING
Smurfit Westrock: making the critical assets of a board line reliable
Gearboxes, conveyors, fans: vibration and thermal monitoring targets the most heavily used components of a converting line.
Monitored equipment & environment
Gearboxes, conveyors, fans, motors and transfer zones on board manufacturing and converting lines.
What the client set out to solve
Securing flow continuity on lines where a mechanical failure can halt several successive operations.
How the solution answers the need
Vibration and thermal monitoring of the most heavily used mechanical components, prioritised inspections, and validation of the return to a nominal state after a repair.
The business impact
Better production continuity, more targeted interventions on critical components, and monitoring that is replicable across packaging lines.
What comes next?
The deployment is designed to be extensible to several production zones, with a simple, non-intrusive and industrialisable approach.
