Yesterday, in a post, How to Prevent Bearing Failures, we described how PeakVue analytics technology can provide early warning for bearing problems. In this 6-minute YouTube video, PeakVue Signal Processing Demo, Emerson's Robert Skeirik describes how these advanced...
Rotary bearings for industrial machinery reduce to friction between the moving parts. As with other mechanical parts, they wear over time. In a Plant Services article, 6 steps to preventing bearing failure, Emerson's Brian Overton shares ways to extend bearing life...
The reality for manufacturers and producers is that their plant assets continually degrade over time. Valves wear over time, electrical assets may experience intermittent faults, and rotating equipment imbalances may lead quickly to forced outages. In this 3-minute...
At the 2018 Ovation Users' Group Conference, Emerson's Jason King and John Reidelbach provided an update on Ovation Machinery Health Monitor and a case study of its application. Jason opened describing some of the challenges of traditional machinery protection...
At the 2018 Ovation Users' Group Conference, Emerson's Sam Onuska and Greg Lieb presented improvements in advanced overspeed protection and online, real time testing of overspeed systems. Greg opened describing where overspeed protection systems can be applied...
Emerson's Alex Flick presented Optimizing Power Generation Maintenance Strategies Using Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) Analysis at the 2018 Ovation Users' Group Conference. Alex opened by sharing a story of a North American generating station. The plant was...
Many of us are experiencing digital transformations in our homes in small steps. Devices like Emerson's Sensi wi-fi thermostat that can be controlled via a smart phone app, digital voice assistants like Amazon's Alexa, Google Home and Apply Siri, and smart locks to...
Capital project team members are under constant pressure to meet project deadlines and get the manufacturing or production process up and running. But how do they ensure that the capital assets installed will run reliably over time? In an Efficient Plant article, Data...
Manufacturing processes create a huge stream of data during the production process as well as with the assets involved in this process. Effective asset management for reliable operations requires getting the early warning signals among this vast sea of data to right...
Tools that advance collaborative efforts among co-workers, especially for maintenance teams in manufacturing operations, help increase reliable and efficient operations. Here's an under 3-minute YouTube video example, Managing Device Configurations with AMS Trex,...
Manufacturing capital projects have followed a similar path for many decades. The project team designs, executes and commissions the project, provides training for the operations staff, and hands it over to them to run. What is often lacking in this approach is the...
Process manufacturers and producers practice many forms of maintenance as part of their efforts toward more reliable operations. These include reactive, preventive, predictive and most recently thanks the advancements in the Industrial Internet of Things...
