Abstract: Unexpected failure of production equipment may lead to fatal accidents and economic losses of the enterprise. It is important to find out the cause and reason as soon as possible and take appropriate maintenance measures. Condition monitoring is often applied to predict equipment failures based on certain parameters. Moreover, when the parts of the rotating machinery fail, the vibration signals collected by the sensors are often mixed with a large amount of noise, which will cause difficulties for the accuracy and generalization of traditional fault diagnosis models. How to extract more effective feature information from complex vibration signals is of indescribable importance for optimizing fault diagnosis models. In order to improve the accuracy of fault diagnosis in manufacturing system, a deep neural network model was proposed, which was validated on a blower. First, the vibration signal was collected using the sensors mounted on the blower. Then, wavelet packet decomposition and fast fourier transform were applied for feature extraction. Deep learning model was built using keras to diagnose the blower. The stacked Autoencoder is adopted in the DNN for dimension reduction. The extracted features are fed into the Multilayer Perceptron for fault diagnosis. Experimental results show that the proposed deep neural network model is able to predict the degradation of the mechanical equipment with high accuracy.
