Smartware Group 07/18/2016 It's true that Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is typically designed for maintenance operations. With the advancement of cloud-based CMMS/EAM, however, well-designed platforms have become an essential system for other departments within, and outside of, the organization. A Spend Matters interview with Michael Croasdale, senior project manager at Source One Management Services, relays that MRO service providers should be lock-step in line with client companies, to the degree that they're sharing "specific data to benchmark pricing, [ensuring] service levels exceed industry standard and [helping] to institute industry best practices." One way to maintain this alignment, of course, is through supplier access to the client's CMMS. Internally, ...

A lot has been said and written about predictive analytics. Most of the attention focuses on applying forecasting techniques to the domains of marketing and security. More recently, however, the rise of machine generated data (e.g., M2M, Industrial Internet of Things, Industries 4.0, etc.) has opened a new playground for data scientists. Read more here

Euromaintenance 2016 will take place in Athens at the end of May. It is the ideal moment to reflect on maintenance in a European context. Euromaintenance is known as the summit for all involved in maintenance across Europe, it’s the place to be. The conference, with the support of the EFNMS, is the only commercially independent conference covering the topics we deal with in the maintenance world.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella sees his company's role in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) as the platform from which companies will build their own software solutions. Otis Elevator Company president Philippe Delpech is in the business of moving platforms to achieve business success. In announcing his company's partnership with Microsoft at a press conference April 24 at Hannover Messe, Delpech said his company will use that digital platform to improve its operation and better use its workers. "Otis invested the elevator; without it, New York and Chicago might never existed. There would be no building above three stories," said Delpech. "One of the reasons we have led the industry for 163 years is that we have been innovative as a company. We also have been a service innovation. We h...

Anyone who doesn't entirely trust a crystal ball when it comes to future maintenance outlay for their production facilities should definitely head to HANNOVER MESSE 2016. Here, they can take a look at the IoT technology stack Thinglyfied from SSV Software Systems, which is being showcased for the first time with an added predictive maintenance feature.

Turbines at power plants are demanding applications for actuators and servo valves because motion control is the key to machine performance and safety.

European industry is ageing and putting pressure on maintenance performance. The same goes with state-owned bridges, railways and energy networks. What does this mean for the modern-day maintenance manager? The need for an extended Value Driven Maintenance (VDM) model, which focuses on the entire and extended asset lifecycle.

Fujitsu Laboratories today announced that it has developed a technology that generates synthesized 3D panoramic screens to fully understand conditions throughout a worksite for on-site maintenance, inspection and other work. Using time series images taken from a worker-side camera, when combined with augmented reality (AR) technology, remotely supporting operators can use that image to provide precise, omnidirectional instructions to field workers. In recent years, a shortage of skilled workers in Japan has put a spotlight on technology that enables skilled workers to provide remote work support to less-experienced field workers.

Siemens is launching a gateway based on the Intel Quark chip family onto the market which links cloud, in-company IT and production. The Simatic IOT2000 is designed for industrial IT solutions that acquire, process and transfer data directly in the production environment. For example, it can be used to connect the production to a cloud-based analysis of machine and production data. This gateway can also be retrofitted in existing plants, where it then harmonizes communication between different data sources, analyzes the data, and passes it on for evaluation in, for example, a cloud. The cloud could be MindSphere, the Siemens Cloud for Industry, or any other cloud preferred by the user. The Simatic IOT2000 complements the MindConnect Nano cloud gateway from Siemens. This is already on the m...

In today's evolving manufacturing environment, machines and components are digitally integrated and able to "talk" to one another. This enables factory operators to continuously capture data on machine states, combine it with information from other systems (such as ERP or CRM software), analyze it and predict the optimal point in time at which to initiate maintenance. The integration of predictive maintenance (PdM) and the data generated through the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is expected to pinpoint impending outages before they occur, speed up overhaul processes and avoid production outages. A recent study by the World Economic Forum and the consulting firm Accenture lends substance to the high hopes currently riding on PdM. According to the study, PdM can reduce the cost of pl...

As we shift to a service-based economy, many businesses are beefing up their product support departments in order to stay competitive. How the newest trends and technology will impact the field service industry in 2016. In 2015, field-based businesses saw the expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the boom of Big Data. The growth of new business practices and technologies over the past year have made it easier for service organizations to streamline the scheduling and service process and deliver greater equipment uptime. Now, as we enter 2016, we'll see a continuation of those trends as businesses scramble to take advantage of the best mobile and back office software, become early adopters of IoT, and make sense of the recent access to valuable data. As we enter an era more reliant ...

Condition Monitoring (CM) has been used for many years as an integral part of a Predictive Maintenance (PM) strategy. The measurement of vibration, for example, is one of the most widely used CM techniques for detecting and diagnosing faults in the roller bearings used in many types of plant, bearings, which, if they fail unexpectedly, can result in high repair and replacement costs. - Jan 2016

Published:  09 February, 2016 Maintenance budget constraints are having a significant impact on machinery uptime, according to one of the UK’s leading drives and controls manufacturers. The warning, from Bosch Rexroth, has been issued to manufacturers who restrict the resouce available to maintenance departments, despite the complexity of equipment continuing to advance. A recent survey conducted by the drives and controls specialist, in conjunction with The Institution of Engineering and Technology (The IET), revealed that the maintenance budgets of more than 50% of manufacturers had stagnated or reduced over the past five years. This is despite the fact that more than two thirds of manufacturers stated that the breadth of equipment they maintain has increased, as well as three qua...
