Predictive Maintenance Practices Help Mitigate Supply Chain Issues
Tinh Phan shares some ways manufacturers and producers can address some of the long lead times that they may be experiencing from their suppliers with regard to instrumentation and automation by incorporating predictive maintenance strategies.
Joseph Fourier is Way More Cool than Louis Vuitton or Christian Dior
Much of our vibration analytics today are still based on Fourier Transform which analyzes complex vibration by superpositioning a variety of sines and cosines waves of different but related frequencies.
Operational Analytics for Effective Pump Health Management
In this short 2:53 YouTube video, Ensuring Pump Health, Emerson’s Logan Woolery describes how to avoid downtime by extending condition monitoring beyond just critical pumps to a wide range of other pumps to get a better picture of their overall health and receive early notification of abnormal conditions.
Prescriptive Maintenance-Prescriptive Analytics and Predictive Maintenance
In a Process Worldwide article, Prescriptive Maintenance: A Cure for Downtime, Emerson’s Jonas Berge describes the new term as, “…a mashup of prescriptive analytics and predictive maintenance.”
Advanced Analytics for Detecting Anti-Friction Bearing Faults
In a new paper, Using PeakVue Plus Technology for Detecting Anti-Friction Bearing Faults, Emerson’s Stewart Bowers describes how PeakVue Plus analytics innovation to PeakVue automates the analysis of PeakVue analytics and presents the results in a user-friendly format.
Safe, Reliable and Efficient Crushing and Grinding in Mining Operations
In mining operations, the comminution process reduces the mined solid materials through crushing, grinding and other means. SAG and Ball mills are one of the most critical pieces of equipment for the process. Mining operators need to optimize grinding mill performance, and reliability to ensure tight shutoff.
Pump Health Monitoring Interactive Virtual Webinar
Join Emerson’s Andrew Cureton and Sean Collins-Dippel for an April 20 webinar at 2-3pm CDT. They will discuss ways to prevent unplanned downtime through predictive diagnostics, identify impeller cavitation for operations staff to address before the condition worsens, and recognize abnormal fluid levels in seal pots.
Seven ways to use WirelessHART for applications other than conventional process variable monitoring
In a Hydrocarbon Processing article, Emerson’s Andrew Cureton looks at a variety of ways WirelessHART can support asset management strategies. If we go back in time to Emerson’s introduction of its first WirelessHART enabled instruments, they were all process...
Improving Mining Critical Asset Performance
To drive improvements in safety and reliability, it’s important to get real-time insight in the health of the critical mining assets. Not only can additional sensors provide early indication of asset performance issues, the use of preconfigured applications that use machine learning algorithms to continuously analyze process data and condition-based data can alert decision makers to act before failures occur.
Future Proof Your Remote Asset Monitoring
In a Processing article, Emerson’s Mani Nambiar encourages companies to think beyond the immediate needs of operating in the pandemic.
Augmented Reality Brings Real Benefits to Manufacturing
Augmented reality (AR) has come a long way since it first made a worldwide splash in mobile video games. No longer considered just a toy or novelty, AR is being implemented for real-world applications that are changing the way we work and learn. One area where AR is...
