Hear Failure from Miles Away
Experienced maintenance professionals can understand if a machine is healthy or not by walking up to it and using their senses – hearing, touch, smell, and sight. But this skill doesn’t scale when there are more plants than experts. This case study – a TechINSIGHT – shows how IoT maintenance solutions are helping machine analysts be in multiple places at once...
