ABSTRACT

A system for predictive modeling of wear or damage to a driven gear of an open
gear set is provided. A method of developing a predictive model of wear or
damage to a driven gear of an open gear set is also provided. The system and
method allow for autonomous, non-interfering dynamic collection of data that
are used to assist in developing maintenance schedules for large open gear
sets. More specifically, it is directed to utilizing data from monitored
pinion gears of girth gear sets under full load operating conditions to
predict health of a girth gear in the girth gear set.
