ADI OtoSense SMS helps continuously monitor homogenizers at Nissei’s Lake Biwa factory, so Nissei can take a proactive approach to maintenance and ensure efficient, high-quality production of its product. While traditional indicators like temperature and vibration anomalies can serve as precursors to imminent failure, the Smart Motor Sensor takes early intervention to the next level by comparing real-world data to an AI model of the system in its optimal operational state. This advanced approach ensures that problems are addressed well before they escalate, effectively averting operational disruptions. This approach also liberates technicians from the monotonous task of continuous monitoring. As a result, they can redirect their expertise towards resolving identified issues promptly and effectively, contributing significantly to overall operational excellence.
Overall, implementing the Smart Motor Sensor significantly boosted critical machinery uptime and continuous motor monitoring for peak performance, resulting in a substantial reduction in downtime.
