4PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE(PDM) SOFTWARE METHODS THAT REDUCE MACHINE DOWNTIME

Maintenancemanagers say PDM is 4x moreeffective at reducing downtime than reactive maintenance.

Predictive maintenance methods, such as streaming real-time data into a CMMS, reduce the chances of machine downtime over other methods.

To reduce downtime with predictive maintenance, use these common methods:

1 INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY

To detect excessive heat in components like bearings or circuitry

2 VIBRATION ANALYSIS

To detect misalignments in rotating components

3 ULTRASOUND MONITORING

To detect inaudible leaks or friction

4 LUBRICATION TESTING

To detect metal particles in oil,indicating grinding
