Condition Monitoring

Converging technologies, machine learning and IoT offers endless Industry 4.0 opportunities for manufacturers to innovate and drive operational efficiencies.

The condition monitoring of production critical manufacturing equipment is fundamental to drive performance.

• Gain new insights and optimise equipment performance.
• Prevent outages and minimise production losses from unplanned shutdowns.
• Allocate resource and schedule preventative maintenance more effectively.

We deploy condition monitoring technology utilising non-intrusive load monitoring, edge analytics, and machine learning, to provide accurate power consumption and cutting-edge insight into the performance of industrial equipment.

In a manufacturing context, this technology can be utilised to improve operation, preventative maintenance, repair and overhaul performance with greater predictive accuracy at the production unit, system, component and part-level.

Many manufacturers already develop products that include aspects of condition monitoring by integrating data collected by sensors already in situ and utilised by day to day operation. However, not all equipment offers this facility, particularly an install base of older units.

Our solution can be retrofitted with minimum disruption to any equipment to provide detailed operational insight. The real-time data can be shared to the cloud and monitored via a user-friendly web or native app, or integrated into a designated platform.

We are able to rapidly develop a simulation, or digital twin, of a system to understand the detail of normal operating parameters and identify when a change or fault develops. With years of experience implementing a wide range of sensors and sensor analysis, our team is able to offer data science for any type of data.
