Abstract
A system for continuously monitoring an apron feeder in real-time, the apron feeder having a plurality of units. The system includes a plurality of sensor modules of different types, wherein each sensor module includes at least one sensor configured to measure an individual condition of a unit of the apron feeder, to generate sensor data representing the measured individual condition, and to transmit the generated sensor data. A base station is configured to collect the sensor data from the plurality of sensor modules, and to transmit outbound data, which is based on the collected sensor data. A processing unit receives the outbound data from the base station, analyses the outbound data for determining whether or not any of the unit of the apron feeder needs to be replaced or readjusted based on its individual condition, and generates a result of the determination for continuously indicating an overall state of the apron feeder.
