Rod mill condition monitoring

Rod mills

Rod mills often run the first grinding stage. Rod impacts and changing load create a distinct vibration background: rising harmonics and ultrasound at the trunnions are early signs of bearing wear and drive issues.

Recommended stack: continuous motor monitoring with Artesis e-MCM, rounds with SDT340, and route vibration via SCOUT.
