Problems solved by technology

As such, the extra time spent detecting faults during maintenance may be ineffective compared to the cost of hoist downtime
The difficulty in detecting faults can also be that they are impossible to detect by human eyes or by the normal maintenance equipment carried by the maintenance personnel inspecting the lifts

Embodiment Construction

[0037] The following examples are exemplary. Although the specification may refer to "an", "an" or "some" embodiments in several places, this does not necessarily mean that each such reference refers to the same embodiment, or that the feature applies to only a single embodiment . Individual features of different embodiments may also be combined to provide other embodiments.

[0038] An aspect of the present invention is to provide an automatically optimized equipment specific predictive maintenance scheme aimed at having reduced life cycle costs and increased reliability and safety. A predictive maintenance scheme may be a self-learning scheme, where optimal learning is based on information provided by multiple (eg, entire fleets) of equipment such that the provided information is used to optimize maintenance of individual equipment. This makes it possible to more accurately predict the life cycle of equipment at the point of sale or already at the beginning of the life cyc...

Abstract

The invention relates to a predictive maintenance of hoisting equipment (102), particularly cranes. A maintenance centre (106) automatically collects diagnostic data relating to least one component of the remote hoisting equipment and optionally sensor data relating the operational environment of the remote hoisting equipment (102). The maintenance centre (106) has an access to configuration data of the remote hoisting equipment and the reliability data on the at least one component of the remote hoisting equipment (102). The maintenance centre (106) is then able to generate a maintenance plan optimizing the cost of maintenance and reliability of the hoisting equipment over a life cycle of the hoisting equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to predictive maintenance of lifting ("hoisting") equipment, in particular cranes ("cranes"). Background technique [0002] The following description of background art may include insights, discoveries, understandings or disclosures provided by the present invention, or connections to the disclosures, that were not known to the relevant art prior to the present invention but are provided by the present invention. Some such contributions of the invention may be pointed out in particular below, whereas other such contributions of the invention will be apparent from their context. [0003] Today, lifting devices or cranes are widely used in the mechanical, chemical, manufacturing, process, construction and metallurgical industries as well as in shipyards or ports and terminals throughout the world. Overhead cranes, also known as bridge cranes, are types of cranes in which the hook-line mechanism runs along a horizontal beam ...
