Hazardous areasExamples of overhead crane inspections

Working for a transport company

When checking the condition of overhead cranes, we always take measurements on top of the traversing equipment. It is very dangerous because it is high up and shakes.
I’m looking for a safer way to measure.

Overhead-mounted cranes are used to move heavy loads laterally.

Before

A person would climb on top of the crane’s traversing device, to which the motor was attached, and check the condition of the motor with his eyes and ears while moving the device. However, this was dangerous and relied on human senses, which made it impossible to make a reliable decision.

After

That’s where the Card Vibro Air2 comes in! Just set the Air2 in place and operate it from inside the railing! Safety and data accuracy are both much better than before.

Unapproachable areasExample of automobile production line inspection

Working for a car manufacturer

I want to measure the vibration of an arm-type robot on a production line, but people are not allowed to enter the robot while it is in operation.
I want to measure vibration as easily as possible.

Arm-type robots on the production line are always in full operation.

Before

The indirect parts of an arm-type robot are occasionally damaged and the condition of the robot needs to be diagnosed regularly, but people are not allowed to enter the robot when it is in operation, so accurate vibration measurements could not be taken.

After

That’s when Card Vibro Air2 comes in!
Attach the Air2 magnetically to the indirect part of the arm robot before work, retrieve it at the end of the day, and you can measure the day’s vibrations!

Location with obstructionsExample of machine tool spindle vibration measurement

Working for a machine tool manufacturer

I want to measure the vibration of a machine tool, but it is difficult to get the cable out.
I want to measure vibration even when the door is closed.

Most machine tools usually have a door to the machining room for safety reasons.

Before

One customer wanted to measure the vibration of his equipment, but was unable to get any data by measuring the vibration from outside the safety door.

After

That’s when the Card Vibro Air2 comes in! The Air2 was fixed magnetically to the spindle inside the machine tool and the vibration could be measured. The company was able to demonstrate to the customer that the machine was operating normally, which increased the persuasiveness of the customer.

Example of machine tool vibration measurement

Bad environment placeExample of vibration measurement of a large motor Where cables are in the way

Working for a large motor manufacturer

It is difficult to get close to the machine due to the considerable noise when the large motor is running.
So, is it possible to measure vibration in an environment free from noise?

Running large motors can be quite noisy. Just approaching the machine is difficult.

Before

One customer struggled with wearing earplugs to take measurements.

After

That’s where the Card Vibro Air2 comes in!
The Air2 is installed magnetically on the motor and measurement starts from a remote control room!
You’re free from noise, you can take your time, and your stress levels are reduced!

When cables are in the wayExample of vibration measurement in an engine room

Working for a
construction equipment manufacturer

I want to measure the vibration during engine operation, but it is difficult because I have to measure it with two people: an operator to move the crane and a person to measure the vibration.
Is there a way to measure it by one person?

The permissible values for engine vibration of construction machinery are determined. Vibrations during engine operation must therefore be measured.

Before

When measuring with a wired type vibrometer, large machines such as cranes required a two-person team, with the operator sitting in the cockpit and running the engine and the operator standing in front of the engine room to measure the vibration.

After

That’s when the Card Vibro Air2 comes in!
Install the Air2 in the engine compartment, place the Android device in the cockpit and you’re ready to go.
This is a great help because you can check the changes in vibration values with your own eyes while changing the engine speed in the cockpit.

Unreachable placeExample of vibration measurement on an escalator

Working for an escalator manufacturer

The escalator steps are constantly moving and it is not possible to get close to the measurement points.
Is there any way to measure the vibration of the escalator?

Escalators are always moving.

Before

The customer wanted to measure the vibration of a moving escalator, but was unable to get close to the measurement point.

After

In such a case,「CardVibro Air2 」is here!
After fixing the Air2 to the moving part of the elevator with a magnet, we were able to operate it in the normal procedure and measure the vibration. It seems that the persuasive power has increased because it can be shown to the delivery destination that it is operating normally.
