IoT sensors can be used to measure machine uptime by monitoring current consumption. By measuring the amount of current that a machine is using, you can get an accurate measure of how often the machine is running.
To measure machine uptime by monitoring current consumption, you will need to install a current sensor on each machine. These sensors will send data to a central controller that will track the amount of current being consumed by each machine. By tracking the amount of current being consumed, you can accurately calculate the amount of time that each machine is running.
This method of measuring machine uptime is more accurate than the traditional production time method because it takes into account the actual amount of time that each machine is running. This is especially useful for machines that are not always running at full capacity.
Using the Current data, we can also predict when the machine is ideal and when it’s running at full capacity. The current measurement data can be used to predict machine health as well.
Once you have collected data from the current sensors, you will need to analyze them to determine machine health. One way to do this is to calculate the average current consumption for each machine. By doing this, you can get a measure of how often the machine is running at full capacity. If the average current consumption is significantly higher than the normal range, this could be an indication that the machine is having problems.
