The goal for maintenance managers is simple: Oversee the successful installation, repair and upkeep of the facility’s assets for smooth operations and on track budgets. This goal is certainly obtainable in an ideal setting where inventory is always in stock, technicians are continuously efficient and assets are always running.
There’s no doubt the Internet of Things (IoT) is moving quickly to the front lines of industrial maintenance reliability and asset management. Communication between machines and human technicians, enabled by wireless technology and connected devices, is fueling a shift from preventative to predictive maintenance. But while the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) groundwork has been laid, and it’s projected to be a $151 billion market by 2020, the revolution is still young.
There is tremendous hype around the burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT), but the IoT is not a singular entity as the value proposition, timeline and technological needs vary widely across its three major domains – industrial, consumer and healthcare. The hype across all three of these IoT domains is palatable, with talk of industry 4.0, smart homes and digital healthcare increasing on a daily basis. This makes finding the right IoT markets and the best bets an enormous challenge.

Modern Predictive Maintenance (PdM) has come a long way in recent years, with ease of use and installation both having increased significantly, while cost has similarly decreased. Conventional PdM was an expensive and time consuming technology and, because of this, it was reserved for only the most critical facilities. The problem with this is that less costly equipment, though seemingly peripheral, can be just as essential to continuing operations, and it is instead relegated to a preventive maintenance (PM) schedule.
This article provides 10 distinct actions you can take to become more proactive. As you will see, the asset management system (AMS) plays a major role. Typically, users struggle to leverage the AMS in support of asset reliability, but the reason for this simply may be because you need a more encompassing set of instructions. So, here they are.
Additive for protecting lubricated metal surfaces against chemical attack by water or other contaminants. There are several types of corrosion inhibitors. Polar compounds wet the metal surface

In today’s operations of industrial facilities and infrastructure assets, operations and maintenance professionals need effective strategies to benefit from an unprecedented volume of “big data”. It is streaming in from the “Internet of Things”, (sensors and meters on equipment, structures and assets), from UAVs able to perform continuous surveys and inspections, and from market sources. The challenge lies in transforming all that data into meaningful information and operational visibility, which can inform decision support and improve asset performance.
The primary goal of any maintenance strategy is to perform the right maintenance at the right times - for your plant or facility. But how do you make these decisions today? Is there any guessing
— Plant maintenance inspectors will appreciate all the benefits of Spectroline® WATER-GLO® fluorescent leak detection dyes. These super-bright dyes reveal all leaks in static and circulating water systems, boilers, storage tanks and other high-volume containers. They also locate leaks in piping, valves, condensers, sprinkler system pumps, seams, welds and fittings
