In this installment of The Hive, the bees are putting their Employee Appreciation Day gifts to good use. However, the bees’ use of sensors isn’t the best way to enhance your connected reliability strategy or predictive maintenance program.
Fluke Accelix Vice President Kevin Clark appeared on “Reliability Radio” with host Scott MacKenzie at MaximoWorld in August 2018 where they discussed technology that provides data the maintenance technician can use to take action. In this episode, Clark discusses how Fluke’s focus has been and continues to be on the maintenance technician. He believes…
Industrial production is experiencing a rapid transformation via the technological impact of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and causing a mass “re-think” of today’s production norms. Without a doubt, leveraging the IIoT during design, commissioning, control and operations has seen early implementation and successes. “For automation, control and process management, the industry has been…
In this installment of The Hive, we feature one key aspect of using condition monitoring strategies to monitor and help maintain asset health — vibration screening with wireless sensors. Vibration monitoring with continuous remote sensors is one of the most effective ways to detect and prevent equipment failure or downtime. In other words, it helps you pick…
In this installment of The Hive, everyone’s favorite bees explore the many benefits of remote vibration monitoring, including the ability to grade asset health, gather data remotely, decrease time-based maintenance and improve uptime. Check out this infographic to learn how maintenance teams can benefit form both handheld vibration tools and wireless sensors.
While the concept of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) seems abstract and foreign to many people, it can be applied across a variety of applications and industries. The IIoT was developed based on the idea that by connecting the digital and physical worlds, information exchange can be improved and elevated within industrial and maintenance…
In this installment of The Hive, the bees celebrate being super heroes who keep the world up and running 24/7. To do this, they use predictive maintenance strategies. They know how to leverage the IIoT and connected reliability to maintain asset health; they just don’t know how to deal with the superhero suits.
In this installment of The Hive, your favorite worker bees learn how to best communicate with their assets and equipment via tools and sensors. Predictive maintenance strategies and connected reliability make this communication possible. Of course, sometimes machines say the darnedest things …
Managing industrial assets for optimal performance, safety and longevity has long been a mix of art, science and experience. Understandably, some organizations tend to err on the side of caution, thinking that too much maintenance or replacing equipment too soon, is less of a risk than too little, too late. Others may be in a…
In this installment of The Hive, we feature connected reliability. This is more than an ideology; it’s a practice and a means to achieve predictive — even proactive — maintenance. In fact, it’s what we stand for here at Fluke Accelix. How can your maintenance team benefit from #ConnectedReliability?
