This paper deals with the maintenance technique for industrial machinery using the artificial neural network so-called self-organizing map (SOM). The aim of this work is to develop intelligent maintenance system for machinery based on an alternative way, namely, thermal images instead of vibration signals. SOM is selected due to its simplicity and is categorized as an unsupervised algorithm. Following the SOM training, machine fault diagnostics is performed by using the pattern recognition technique of machine conditions. The data used in this work are thermal images and vibration signals, which were acquired from machine fault simulator (MFS). It is a reliable tool and is able to simulate several conditions of faulty machine such as unbalance, misalignment, looseness, and rolling element bearing faults (outer race, inner race, ball, and cage defects). Data acquisition were conducted simultaneously by infrared thermography camera and vibration sensors installed in the MFS. The experimental data are presented as thermal image and vibration signal in the time domain. Feature extraction was carried out to obtain salient features sensitive to machine conditions from thermal images and vibration signals. These features are then used to train the SOM for intelligent machine diagnostics process. The results show that SOM can perform intelligent fault diagnostics with plausible accuracies.

This chapter proposes a Self-Organizing Map (SOM) method for fault diagnosis and prognosis of manufacturing systems, machines, components, and processes. The aim of this work is to optimize the condition monitoring of the health of the system. With this method, manufacturing faults can be classified, and the degradations can be predicted very effectively and clearly. A good maintenance scheduling can then be created, and the number of corrective maintenance actions can be reduced. The results of the experiment show that the SOM method can be used to classify the fault and predict the degradation of machines, components, and processes effectively, clearly, and easily.
