Siemens (Munich, Germany) offers Flender Gearlog digital measurement technology for gears that captures values relating to rotational speed, torque, temperature, and vibration using special sensors that record important physical variables. The aim is to compare operational load spectra with the fatigue strength of individual gear unit components over time to match up the gear unit and the working machine for the long term. The system adds up these readings in parallel with machine capacity utilization. The measurement results are logged, saved, and digitally depicted in compressed form. Operators are able to visualize the results at any time or read them out in the form of a dataset. The measurements enable conclusions to be drawn about the applied load and loading capacity of gears, and can be used to identify possible sources of damage, capacity reserves, and overloading in the measured gear.
