WEG Motor Scan - How it Works

How it Works

The WEG Motor Scan® can be easily configured via a smart device (App available for Android and iOS).

Installation is fast, simple and the entire process is guided directly in the app during sensor configuration. The WEG Motor Scan® is fixed by screw on the motor fin and there is no electrical connection between the motor and the sensor.

Once configured, the sensor sends data to the cloud via Bluetooth® or Gateway and enables analysis of the results in WEG Motion Fleet Management.

The data can be collected via Bluetooth® on the smartphone, by the app, or automatically via the Gateway, programmed specifically for the sensors. The engine information is sent and stored in the cloud and can be further analyzed in WEG Motion Fleet Management.

With the WEG Motor Specialist module, a solution that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to diagnose, monitor and indicate predictive maintenance in electric motors, the diagnostics are made autonomously, allowing the user a quick maintenance action. From now on, avoid downtime, plan maintenance, optimize energy consumption and increase your operational efficiency with WEG Motor Specialist. Your engine powered by intelligence.

WEG Motion Fleet Management

Developed to bring practicality and agility in the operation, maintenance and management of industrial plants, WEG Motor Fleet Management is the ideal solution for monitoring your assets. Based on cloud computing, the performance of the drives can be monitored at any time and from anywhere in the world.

With WEG Motor Fleet Management you can monitor motors, inverters, gearboxes and gearmotors that are applied in any type of industry or installation. Through periodic data collection, valuable insights are generated to increase the performance and availability of the equipment fleet on the factory floor. Thus, it is possible to establish and schedule predictive maintenance plans, significantly reducing the number of unplanned production stops.

WEG Motor Scan Gateway

The WEG Gateway Motor Scan sends information in real time to the cloud through WiFi, ethernet or 3G / 4G cable, allowing immediate monitoring of remote motor performance.

Much more technology and connectivity for an even more efficient Industry 4.0.
