Remote monitoring for equipment manufacturers
Maximize efficiency with remote monitoring for equipment manufacturers: Advanced IoT solutions for real -time control and maintenance.
Challenge
Identify and anticipate operational problems of equipment located in manufacturer clients to reduce stop time and maintenance costs.
Solution
Equipment manufacturer acquired a White Label model the Bridgemeter Remote Monitoring solution and offers the factory to its customers to anticipate problems and reduce displacement costs in current manstar contracts.
The customer is a multinational manufacturer of equipment for the industry and provides technical assistance and maintenance service to its customers. Its biggest difficulty was to identify a problem on a machine remotely in order to identify adequate maintenance failures and procedures. In addition, all the predictive maintenance process was performed on site, connected to the machine through a maintenance team computer.
This model, besides being inefficient, generated a very high cost of delssing and team to the manufacturer that depended on physical visits for a simple machine operation inspection.
The project was developed based on the Bridgemeter IoT Monitoring solution at Above-Net . Through the platform, the customer can monitor in real time the operation of all equipment under maintenance contract around the world.
Within various scalability and safety requirements, communication with equipment controllers (CLPS - Siemens with S7Comm communication) was required, which Bridgemeter is compatible and approved for communication.
Another important requirement was the flexibility of communication in many countries, regardless of the manufacturer's local customer network avoiding communication and resistance limitations in the installation by IT teams. Above-Net 's Modbus Gateway Modbus .
All equipment parameters are transmitted through a cellular gateway offered in the solution, processed and stored in real time. Bridgemeter's functional layer acts instantly firing alarms and notifications automatically based on the intelligent rules defined by the platform user.
In addition, the Bridgemeter app indicates to the local maintenance team about the existing trend or problem, as well as the task checklist to be performed to solve it.
With in-depth experience in developing remote industrial communication solutions, Above-Net has offered a Turn-Key IoT solution that covers the integration, communication, information, functions and business layers in just one product saving customer's time and resources and providing from way of imdiathans the true process of digitizing the process.
