Abstract

The Southern Nylon Spinning plant, at South African Nylon
Spinners in Bellville - Cape Town - South Africa, is one
of the oldest on the site and a need arose to upgrade the
existing method used in speed monitoring in this particular
plant. This system was unable to produce alarms on speed
limits being exceeded (i.e. on under-speed or over-speed).
There was no alarm logging or historical trending. Manual
records on speed were either incomplete or non-existent.
Thus the purpose of this study was to investigate the
existing speed monitoring system and implement a suitable
computerised method of speed monitoring.
