Recognition systems and vibration measurement instruments, which can be integrated into an Industry 4.0 plant environment, are being offered by REO. Using the status reports in which the recognition system provides, the plant's quality department can quickly and easily correct production mistakes.

As specified in the IEC 1131 standards, the system comes with a program written as an instruction list, making it suitable for both pharmaceutical and food manufacturing plants.

The Reovib BK032, REO's vibration measurement instrument, also speeds up the manufacturing process. By using the instrument with an accelerometer, vibration levels can be easily monitored and transferred onto a database. With the instrument, an acceptance window can be set, defining adjustable maximum and minimum limits. If either of these values is exceeded, a corresponding relay will operate.

So that spurious readings are ignored during the unstable start-up phase, a time-delay can also be set. Thus, the Reovib BK032 not only collects data but also reacts to it.
