The key to achieve industrial processes “par excellence”: Minimization of downtime of machines and systems. The way: Condition Monitoring.

Online condition monitoring systems are based on a history of data that is kept during phases of undisturbed machine and equipment operation. Trends of various machine parameters are stored / mapped continuously.

Actual process deviations are compared to the historical data in machine analysis. As a result, the machine operators are automatically warned about developing malfunctions and are enabled to do minor repairs in the ongoing production process or the maintenance staff can prepare some works for planned (scheduled) machine shutdowns. Thus unplanned downtime or total failures of machinery and equipment and heavy financial losses can be avoided by continuous condition monitoring.
