How Edge Computing Enables Predictive Maintenance of Valves

Application-independent, the solution prevents downtimes in production through AI-based early fault detection.

Edge AI - benefits and advantages:

• Increase performance by reducing latency
• Large number of data points can be measured
• Evaluation even without the internet
• No data transfer between shopfloors, countries etc. needed
• Companies can expand their computing capacity through a combination of IoT devices and edge data centers

Thanks to the scalable edge computing solution, incipient defects are now detected at an early stage. Maintenance measures can be planned effectively. Monitoring of the valves is possible in real-time even if the WLAN connection is briefly interrupted and is visualized by means of a clear dashboard.

• Maintenance processes can be planned in a demand-oriented and cost-efficient manner.
• Data-based condition monitoring is possible in real-time.
• Fail-safe operation of the production facilities.
• Time & personnel expenditure in the maintenance process is reduced.
