Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4036678A1] Preventative maintenance of conveying systems 2 is desirable but labor intensive with the existing methods that are only applicable to small systems 2. Disclosed is a method for anomaly detection during operation of a conveying system 2 formed of at least one carrier 4s, comprising a sensor unit 26, running on a conveyer track 6. The sensor unit registers measurements of the conveying system 2 while the carrier 4s runs on the conveyer track 6. The position of the carrier 4s is continuously determined. The conveyer track 6 is divided into sections. The measured data are allocated to a specific section based on the position determination and are then subjected to an analysis for each section separately. Deviations in the analyzed data are detected as an anomaly and signaled by a message indicating the position.
