Development of an Adjustable Measuring System for Electrical Consumptions in Production

Abstract:

The establishment of green products and a sustainable production increasingly affects corporate competitiveness, as an efficient production does not only affect the energy costs, but also improves the company image. As the importance of renewable energy sources increases, mainly providing unsteady energy levels, load management of manufacturing and assembly lines fades into spotlight. For this purpose, proper measuring equipment is required, being able to log and evaluate varying energy loads.This paper entails an approach being able to automatically measure and process electric load profiles. Hereby, all important hardware components with the belonging requirements as well as the software constitution are described.
