Large rotating machinery is widely used in industrial production process. With the computer network technology, system testing technology, signal analysis and fault diagnosis technology, large motor based on high speed wire rod production line as the object, the online monitoring method of large motor is present. Based on it, the signal processing approach of large motor under complex circumstance is proposed, and the software of on-line monitoring system for large motor is developed. Through monitoring the key parameters of the distributed signals of temperature, pressure, current and so on, the developed system can accurately analyze and locate critical faults of equipments, reduce faults rate, extend the service life and increase productivity of the motor equipment.
