Screening machines are automated devices that separate materials into different particle size fractions. Their stable and efficient operation has a direct impact on product quality and production efficiency. However, in actual production environments, factors such as equipment aging, improper operation, and environmental conditions can cause screening machine failures—leading to production stoppages and significant disruptions that seriously affect both efficiency and product quality. This places high demands on equipment manufacturers to provide timely and effective maintenance services.

To address these challenges, WideIOT offers a data acquisition and fault management solution for screening machines based on PLC data collection. By using industrial smart gateways to collect data from the screening machine PLC and enable wireless communication, the solution provides real-time monitoring, fault early warning, and intelligent maintenance—helping reduce equipment failure rates and improve both productivity and product quality. In addition, remote PLC maintenance capabilities help manufacturers lower operational costs and strengthen their market competitiveness.

System Functions

Data Acquisition and Processing
Through industrial smart gateways connected to the PLC, the system collects real-time data on screening machine operating status, operational parameters, and other key information, and transmits it to cloud platforms or host systems via 5G/4G/Wi-Fi/Ethernet. Using edge computing, the collected data is then filtered, categorized, and statistically processed—providing a solid basis for fault diagnosis and early warning.

Fault Diagnosis and Early Warning
By continuously monitoring and analyzing screening machine operational data, the system can identify potential fault risks at an early stage. Customizable alarm rules and notification methods (WeChat, SMS, email, etc.) are supported. In addition, by building fault diagnosis models and warning mechanisms, the system enables rapid fault location and diagnosis—providing targeted maintenance recommendations to the enterprise.

Maintenance Management and Optimization
Through a streamlined workflow that integrates fault alerts and maintenance work orders, the system enables efficient equipment usage and servicing. Users can track work order progress, assigned personnel, activity logs, and more at any time. By continuously analyzing and optimizing maintenance data, the system helps refine both products and services—improving system stability and accuracy while delivering greater value to the enterprise.
