Banner Engineering Vibration Solutions for AWS IoT
Identify equipment problems early before a failure can occur by monitoring the health of motors, fans, pumps, and other rotating equipment. Banner’s wireless vibration monitoring solutions make it easy and cost effective to monitor a variety of vibration characteristics and set warning and alarm thresholds, as well as collect vibration data over time for trending and analysis.
By pairing Banner wireless vibration sensors with the DXM Wireless Controller running a machine learning algorithm, customers can quickly identify baseline vibration levels and generate alerts when thresholds are exceeded due to misaligned components, or early bearing failure. This direct insight into equipment performance provides greater opportunities for predictive maintenance, increasing uptime, and offers an ideal entry point for your Industry 4.0 initiatives.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
- Banner vibration sensors measure several vibration characteristics and wirelessly sends the data to the DXM controller
- The DXM controller collects the data and can be programmed to automatically establish baselines and set warning and alarm thresholds
- The DXM controller collects data and transmits to the Cloud via local ethernet or cellular connection
- Use Banner CDS for pre-configured dashboard and alerting functionality, or plug your data into AWS IoT Core to start your AWS IoT journey
