With the constant changes in the technological front, the modern appliances and products are becoming more complex. To monitor them, skilled operators are required but they are becoming scarce with time.
Automated monitoring is multifaceted. The core benefit in a way is having real time information about which appliances are running or not running. With the help of predictive maintenance, a tab can be kept on all assets as to be informed about any kind of abnormalities in its functioning beforehand.
Predictive maintenance has helped tremendously in solving major issues in the following ways:
Time Saving: When the abnormality in the asset arises, it sometimes becomes difficult to track as to in which particular area is the issue. With predictive maintenance, We can come to know about the exact location as to where is the glitch, thus saving a lot of time and energy.
Easy monitoring of assets: With the help of Cloud and Digital Twin, it becomes easier to keep a tab of all the assets and their current working condition from any location. With constant timely alerts and updates, it is comfortable to keep a track of all the assets at once.
Improvement of asset life: With predictive asset insights, it provides 'right information, at right time'. The maintenance of any asset can be done in time if it is known beforehand about the abnormalities. By coming to know in a preventive stage about some unusual behavior of the asset, we can take timely actions to prolong the life of the asset. This also helps to reduce the risk of replacement of the asset.
Saving unnecessary cost: With predictive maintenance, the unwanted extra cost for maintenance or replacement comes down. Also, it brings in light the issue of the heavy electricity cost which drops down by 25–30%.
