Transitioning to Predictive Maintenance

We’re looking to transition from reactive to predictive maintenance at our plant. What tools or strategies worked best for you?

Vibration analysis is a great starting point. We’ve prevented several bearing failures by identifying unusual patterns early.

Invest in a CMMS (computerized maintenance management system) with predictive capabilities. It simplifies data collection and analysis.

Don’t forget about operator training. The best tools won’t help if your team doesn’t know how to interpret the data.
