Abstract

General Background PT. PG. Candi Baru operates as a sugar processing enterprise where continuous machinery performance directly dictates production success. Specific Background The cane cutter machine operates under heavy loads and long durations, frequently encountering excessive vibration and increased thermal temperature that accelerate component degradation. Knowledge Gap Relying solely on reactive corrective maintenance leads to high downtime, yet integrating structured condition monitoring systems remains critical for reliability. Aims This study aims to analyze the effect of periodic monitoring of vibration and thermal temperature on the condition and reliability of the cane cutter machine. Results Regular tracking enables early fault detection, reduces sudden failure risks, and improves operational efficiency and service life. Novelty The systematic synthesis of dual vibration and thermal telemetry data optimizes preventive maintenance strategies for high-load sugar milling drives. Implications These insights establish robust operational baselines to extend component lifespan and minimize unplanned downtime.

Key Findings Highlights

  1. Regular vibration and thermal monitoring enables early detection of potential machinery failures.
  2. Elevated vibration levels consistently correlate with localized thermal increases on critical rotating components.
  3. Structured periodic inspections significantly improve operational efficiency and prevent unexpected downtime.

Keywords Cane cutter, Vibration, Thermal temperature, Periodic inspection, Preventive maintenance
