A method for monitoring motorized equipment components includes determining first acceleration values of at least one equipment component during an encoded presettable motion sequence of the at least one equipment component at a first time point. The method also includes determining second acceleration values of the at least one equipment component during the encoded presettable motion sequence of the at least one equipment component at a second time point. The method includes emitting an error signal when a presettable number of the second acceleration values lies outside a presettable tolerance range of the first acceleration values.
