Design of a Remote Maintenance System for ABB Drives

摘要

ABB Drives is a highly technical product which has been widely used in metallurgical, mining, windmill farm, building automation, drilling rig and oilfield. This also presents many characteristics such as large number of servicing points plus a wide geographic spread. Since most of them are located at less accessible areas of the world, the importance of rapid diagnosis and maintenance technology is obvious which ensure the security and reliability of the drive system becomes very important. Remote maintenance system is a service that supported by computer technology, communication technology, network and multimedia technology to provide a safe, efficient and convenient way to maintain the product remotely. This paper focuses on how to build a maintenance system for ABB Drives that integrating remote monitoring, control and diagnose all together.
