A non-intrusive method for monitoring conditions in manufacturing systems is proposed. The method requires only a single current sensor for the monitoring of multiple machine individually, which is done by means of disaggregating measured waveforms. For accurate disaggregation even in complicated systems with multiple identical machines, it employs a new model-combining factorial hidden Markov model (FHMM) with behavioral models derived from queuing theory. Experimental results with an actual system show that the proposed method achieves more accurate disaggregation than conventional methods and obtains such valuable information on productivity as the reasons for and timing of manufacturing process stoppages.
