The push to transition to more sophisticated digital tools, such as computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) software and condition monitoring sensors, is inescapable. By integrating condition monitoring data with CMMS software, maintenance and reliability (M&R) professionals receive an overall view of asset health and maintenance activities in real-time—all in one place. Gather the data Most…
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…
We want to thank everyone who attended and participated in Xcelerate18, which took place Nov. 13-15 in Fort Myers, Florida. The show was a success and drew approximately 500 attendees. Here is a breakdown of the event and top Xcelerate18 moments. Pre-Conference During the pre-conference, attendees could participate in a one-day overview CRL workshop led…
When making maintenance decisions, it is important to have access to real-time and historic asset data. Remote, wireless sensor technology makes it easier to collect this important data by integrating with a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). The latest eMaint web-workshop discusses asset data integration by using Fluke Connect sensors within the eMaint CMMS. This…
The availability of more reliable connectivity and sensors — as well as the rapid growth and acceptance of the cloud — are expanding IIoT adoption.
Learn what the IIoT is, what its benefits are and how to get started with deploying an IIoT program in your facility.
Proactive maintenance makes it possible to perform maintenance only when necessary.
When older workers retire and there’s a lack of qualified candidates to replace them, what do you do?
Using a new condition monitoring system reduced the manpower requirements by 45 percent.
The Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are increasingly becoming more commonplace terms in the world of maintenance, reliability and asset management. This technology interconnects billions of devices and equipment, allowing for greater system collaboration. IIoT has the opportunity to reduce the need for intrusive maintenance and provide insights to the actual condition…
