The SCOPE sensor is both inexpensive and designed for low power consumption. While I cannot provide details due to proprietary information, we achieve long battery life without sacrificing sensitivity through the use of special modes and careful consideration of calculation methods. Specifically, we have achieved a battery life of around three years (with individual variations) through measurements taken every five minutes. In contrast, many other wireless vibration sensors typically measure once a day, making high-frequency measurements like those of SCOPE impractical from a battery life perspective. As a result of high-frequency measurements, we can accurately measure vibrations even in machines like automatic activation devices, where the timing of operation is unpredictable. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

The SCOPE sensor costs 4,000 yen per unit and uses an inexpensive Raspberry Pi as the edge device. However, being inexpensive alone does not enable a small start. It is important to easily purchase and increase the number of sensors. The SCOPE sensor has a magnet embedded in its case, and measurement begins simply by attaching it to a (steel) bearing part. Once a master device is added, it becomes possible to view graphs and send alert emails. *For more details, you can view the related links on the blog.

It is a monitoring system using wireless sensing that can be built at an overwhelmingly low cost. It can utilize a variety of sensors centered around vibration. As a result of achieving low power consumption while maintaining sufficient sensitivity to detect abnormal signs, it has achieved a battery life of about three years with measurements taken every five minutes (using a CR2032 button battery). It is possible to start small with a low-cost investment and gradually increase the number of sensors to improve the reliability of the entire line.

"SCOPE" is an equipment monitoring system that captures abnormal signs of machinery and provides condition-based maintenance (CBM, predictive maintenance) at an overwhelmingly low cost. This product allows for the introduction of a large number of vibration sensors at a low cost, resulting in the reduction of failures and the prevention of excessive maintenance. The concept is to deploy a network of (vibration) sensors across production lines and facilities to enhance the overall reliability of the line. 【Features】 ■ Reduces failures by detecting abnormal vibrations ■ Significant reduction in labor costs through systematization ■ Low-cost implementation *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce a case where the introduction of 'SCOPE', which we handle at our company, at a pharmaceutical company led to reductions in maintenance costs and labor costs. During the air conditioning inspection conducted by a specialized company in the second half of 2023, urgent maintenance was proposed for seven units. However, after the introduction of SCOPE, it was determined that six out of the seven units did not require maintenance. Additionally, during the air conditioning inspection in the first half of 2024, due to the prior sharing of information about SCOPE, only one unit was proposed for urgent maintenance, and that unit was also one that did not have a sensor installed. [Case Summary] ■ Implementing Company: Pharmaceutical Company ■ Challenge: Urgent maintenance was proposed for seven units during the air conditioning inspection by a specialized company in the second half of 2023. ■ Results - In the air conditioning inspection in the first half of 2024, only one unit was proposed for urgent maintenance due to prior information sharing. - That one unit was also a device without a sensor installed. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where the implementation of 'SCOPE', which we handle, at a pharmaceutical company led to the avoidance of failures. Abnormalities were detected in seven devices, and three of them, which had damage to the bearing balls, were maintained. The remaining four devices showed a gradual increase in vibration and are currently planned for maintenance. Our product allows for a small start, making it easy to gradually add sensors as needed. Please feel free to contact us if you have any requests. 【Case Summary】 ■ Implementing Company: Pharmaceutical Company ■ Detection Details: Light damage to bearing balls (delamination due to metal fatigue) ■ Situation: Three devices were maintained, and the remaining four are planned for maintenance due to a gradual increase in vibration. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
