How condition based monitoring can improve system health and overhead while making engineers’ lives easier.
With the development of new monitoring technologies and systems, engineers have access to increasing amounts of data and system information. However, we have now reached a point where engineers are overloaded with information, harming productivity. Here Robert Badcock, CEO at?signal conditioning and wireless telemetry specialist?Mantracourt, explains how condition based monitoring (CBM) technology can detect machine and system abnormalities without overloading your bus with unnecessary data.
Data is crucial for many businesses with regards to maintenance and operations, however there is such thing as too much data. When an asset requires a high cycle rate, it leads to an increase in measurements and data, which needs to be managed and analysed. If an asset is in a normal state, then this data is not useful and can lead to an overload of unnecessary information, slowing productivity and increasing costs.
