ForTune II – Sensor gateway for edge AI applications

Predictive and proactive maintenance aims to ensure that machines and systems are maintained in line with requirements in order to avoid unplanned downtime and quality losses in production.

In the Fortune II research project, Fraunhofer IZM has developed a self-sufficient, adaptive solution for AI-supported condition monitoring for Industry 4.0.

ForTune is ideal for companies that want to efficiently monitor and optimize their machines and processes. The technology can be used in various industries to analyze operating conditions, improve maintenance, and increase overall plant efficiency.

• Civil engineering and construction: monitoring of excavators, cranes, special machines, and conveyor systems, for example
• Metalworking industry: condition monitoring of milling, drilling, and grinding machines, for example

• Early detection of changes: multiparameter measurements enable proactive monitoring and identification of deviations in system behavior.
• Real-time data processing: the sensor gateway can connect a large number of sensors for condition monitoring applications and processes the data in real time.
• Powerful analyses: with the help of a powerful coprocessor, complex analyses and extensive AI algorithms can be implemented efficiently.
• Integration of analog interfaces: a special microcontroller ensures the connection to analog interfaces, which are often missing in conventional systems.
• Broadband communication: modern network interfaces are available for data transmission, enabling seamless integration into various systems.
