Abstract: To provide a status information also to one or more industrial devices for which no process data is available, a machine learning model is trained by using process data of a subset of industrial devices, corresponding product data, and statuses obtained by performing remote monitoring analysis to the process data. When user input including first information, which at least indicate at least one industrial device type is received, product data of one or more industrial automation devices, which are of the same indicated industrial device type is retrieved and inputted to the trained model, which outputs one or more estimated statuses.

Abstract: An electric power train includes an electric drive, an electric motor driven by the electric drive, and a meshing pair of a drive gear and a driven gear. The drive gear is coupled to the electric motor and the driven gear is coupled to a mechanical load. The backlash of the meshing pair of the drive gear and the driven gear is measured and estimated based on a time until a contact of teeth of the rotating drive gear and the driven gear during a startup of the electric motor. Wear of the meshing pair of the drive gear and the driven gear based on a change in the measured backlash over time during the operation of the electric power train.
