Improved performance thanks to condition monitoring | |||
| Condition-based Monitoring (CbM) and Predictive Maintenance (PM) are two maintenance strategies which aim at optimizing equipment efficiency and reducing service timing and costs. | |||
| In a condition monitoring driven factory, the operating data of the individual machines are detected by smart sensors, sent to a central IOT platform and processed through sophisticated algorithms so as to quickly identify potential issues. Whenever a change in the health of the machine is foreseen, the condition monitoring software sends a notification so that technicians can remotely assess the situation and the actual need for a intervention on site. |  | ||
SMITEC | |||
 | Smitec contributes to this business intelligence model in more ways than one. The central IOT platform developed by Smitec SMYIOT monitors the operating efficiency of the machines based on specific KPIs, such as the OEE and the efficiency of the machine. It also allows to perform condition monitoring functions on the main events of the machine's life cycle, such as the approaching of the warranty expiration date or the setting of operating hours thresholds. | ||
| Specific warning notifications are generated in the event of machine warranty close to expiry date, or in case of variation from standard working or environmental conditions. An automated message system has also been implemented to e-mail notifications when interventions of scheduled maintenance are close to due date. | |||
 | |||
| Predictive maintenance algorithms are being developed and close to release to keep the production plants controlled by Motornet System in perfect working order. Smitec team of engineers is also working on a set of HW solutions with the prospect of applying them to systems equipped with third parties' automation solutions. |  | ||
