Axial fans

Industrial fans such as axial fans can wear out in various ways. Bearings, which absorb radial and axial forces and can fail due to overheating, lubricant wear, or bearing play, are particularly affected. Impellers and blades are also subject to heavy stress from dust, particles, or corrosion, which can lead to material fatigue or blade breakage. The shaft can be damaged by scoring, warping, or fatigue cracks, while couplings and belt drives show wear due to friction, expansion, or slippage. Seals lose their protective effect over time, and motors are at risk from overheating, insulation damage, or vibrations. Overall, bearings, blades, and the drive unit are among the most heavily loaded components.

Our AI-supported analysis of sensor data provides precise indications of bearing damage caused by vibrations, overheating, or lubricant wear. Imbalances and changes that indicate erosion, corrosion, or material fatigue of the blades are also detected. Scratches, warping, or fatigue cracks on shafts, as well as wear on couplings, belt drives, seals, or motors, can also be reliably identified. This allows impending failures to be avoided at an early stage, maintenance to be planned in a targeted manner, and spare parts to be efficiently scheduled: with the positive side effect of optimizing inventory levels and sustainably increasing plant availability.
