Mitsubishi Electric - AI-supported maintenance of servo drives
Thanks to artificial intelligence, companies can make targeted maintenance decisions for their servo drives from Mitsubishi Electric. The company has been collecting operating data on its products and their peripherals since the development of its first digital servo drives in 1987. These many years of experience have now been incorporated into the development of the Melservo MR-J5 series. These servos use the company's own Maisart deep learning AI to plan maintenance work optimally. Integrated sensors in the devices not only provide a real-time overview of the condition of internal components. Mechanical components connected to the drives, such as ball screws, belts and gears, are also monitored. These capabilities are supplemented by the CC-Link IE TSN network technology with gigabit bandwidth and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) functionalities. This allows large amounts of data for time-critical control tasks as well as less volatile AI analysis information to be transmitted promptly and without delays.
