Siemens Incorporates Veros Technology in New Condition Monitoring Offer

Condition monitoring service for motors ---Real time information on operating performance ---Fixed rate, annual service contract; no capital investment needed

Siemens Industry Services announces a new advanced monitoring service, utilizing Veros Systems technology, designed for the industrial market. Working with Veros, Siemens extends its condition monitoring services using high frequency measurements of currents and voltages to continually assess the operating performance and machine health of motors and their mechanical and electrical components.


As part of the data-driven service, customers see real-time information of their motors output efficiency, torque, loading, power factor, speed, and power quality. In addition, customers receive predictive warnings of impending asset health issues such as bearing failures, rotor bar cracks, soft footing and bolt looseness, coupling issues, impeller cracks and seal leaks.

With the service, Siemens provides all necessary software, hardware and installation services under a fixed rate, annual service contract. No capital, installation or project management efforts are required from the customer. Given the unique plug & play nature of this Siemens service, no additional sensors are required on the rotating equipment itself.

"The new offering builds upon Siemens strengths in industrial data technology and its comprehensive equipment knowledge to deliver customer value in the form of improved availability, efficiency and performance," explains Simon Davidoff, General Manager of Siemens Plant Data Services in the US. "Our cooperation with Veros allows us to provide to our customers a reliability-centered service at cutting-edge and considerable operational benefit."

Plant Data Services provides a framework for using our customers production and machine data to identify opportunities for productivity and reliability improvement as well as increasing transparency of their industrial processes.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production

In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
