Predictive Maintenance supports your monitoring the machine service life. You will find out how your machines work, when they really need maintenance, and what measures you can take to extend your machines’ service life. Our SOMA software platform supports your Predictive Maintenance implementation, works machine-independent, and is arbitrarily scalable. The Reason why Predictive Maintenance will Outmode Traditional Maintenance Approaches Traditional maintenance approaches, such as cyclical maintenance services defined by machine manufacturers, only seldom show the real status of the installations. The different areas of application or intensities of production have a considerable effect on their service life. Therefore, maintenance is either too early or too late. Whereas costs for premature machine maintenance might be acceptable but unnecessary, a machine breakdown can have serious consequences. In addition to downtime costs, market position or customer confidence are suffering. On top, you will have high personnel costs for time-consuming and training-intensive plant-specific maintenance. Predictive Maintenance allows a real-time lifetime or maintenance forecast based on machine data. Machine sensors or programmable logic controller (PLC) provide a large number of real-time data. These data are collected and prepared and give an insight into the current operating status; also called Condition Monitoring. In doing so, you will be able to recognize anomalies at short-term and react in time.
