We will introduce a case where the improvement of machine availability and process reliability in paper machinery has successfully reduced overall operating costs!
We will introduce a successful case of productivity improvement and cost optimization through predictive maintenance in "Industry 4.0." At the Mitsubishi HiTec Paper Europe GmbH factory in Bielefeld, Germany, vibration monitoring devices installed on paper processing machines have enabled a shift from time-based to condition-based monitoring, avoiding unnecessary machine shutdowns. All 26 installed vibration monitoring devices, SmartCheck, were integrated with the customer's control system through the Mitsubishi Electric L-series PLC, which operates as a bidirectional gateway. This sequencer has enabled the realization of a new system. [Solution] - Monitoring of fans, motors, and bearings by SmartCheck - Integration with the customer's control system via Mitsubishi Electric PLC, providing all process parameters to the vibration monitoring devices - Visualization through Mitsubishi Electric SCADA *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Shefura Japan Co., Ltd. was established in 2006 through the merger of Inabe Bearing Co., Ltd. (founded in 1987) and FAG Japan Co., Ltd. (founded in 1982). The company operates with three domestic bases, focusing on the automotive and industrial machinery sectors. In the automotive division, we contribute to the automotive industry not only by developing and supplying components for the entire drive system, including engines, chassis, and transmissions, but also as a partner that creates new solutions. In the industrial machinery division, we provide bearings, predictive maintenance solutions, and robotic solutions across a wide range of industrial sectors, including machine tools, heavy industry, wind turbines, and the steel industry. For information on products in the predictive maintenance (condition monitoring and vibration diagnosis) field and automatic lubrication systems (automatic oil supply, automatic grease supply, grease, and lubricating oil) within the industrial machinery division, please refer to the product page on this site.
