  • Publication number: 20080095405
    Abstract: A method and system providing a transfer container crane with container code recognition of a container identified by a container code to a container inventory management system is disclosed. The system and method are capable of performing these tasks without the use of non-standard container tagging.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 7191073
    Abstract: Novel tracked orders (i.e., tracked orders that are not present in “healthy” machinery) are useful for locating bearing anomalies. Accordingly, a method for locating bearing anomalies in machinery is provided that includes receiving vibration measurements acquired from the machinery, analyzing the vibration measurements to identify novel tracked orders indicative of bearing anomalies, and ascertaining the location of a bearing anomaly by relating a novel tracked order thus-identified to one or more further tracked orders. Thus, the novel tracked order does not merely indicate the occurrence of a bearing anomaly, but, in combination with the one or more further tracked orders, allows the bearing anomaly to be traced to a particular position.
    Type: Grant
