Failure diagnosis in assets: Steps, tools, and best practices

Failure diagnosis in assets is an essential process to increase reliability and operational safety in industrial environments. When performed superficially or only as a corrective measure, the risk is addressing symptoms without tackling the root cause — leading to recurring failures, higher costs, and reduced productivity. Just like in medicine — where a fever can… Continue reading Failure diagnosis in assets: Steps, tools, and best practices

How to increase the reliability of industrial assets?

Increasing the reliability of industrial assets is one of the greatest challenges for maintenance engineers and managers. Reliability is directly linked to a piece of equipment’s ability to perform its intended function without failure during the planned operating period. When reliability is low, it compromises productivity, raises maintenance costs, and puts operational safety at risk.… Continue reading How to increase the reliability of industrial assets?

Drilling rig: failure modes and monitoring solutions

A drilling rig is a machine used for drilling into the ground or into rocks when they are extremely rigid or require deep drilling. There are three main drilling techniques: Failure modes in drilling rig components Combustion engine faults This component is responsible for transforming thermal energy into mechanical energy, providing the driving force needed… Continue reading Drilling rig: failure modes and monitoring solutions

Wind turbine: learn more about the main components and how to monitor Wind Turbines Although it is a clean energy and the use of wind turbines is expanding, it is essential to seek to maximize productivity. To this end, the energy industry must find ways to guarantee the reliability, availability and maintainability of its assets.… Continue reading Wind turbines: how to increase the reliability of this asset

Grain rolling mills: everything you need to know

Grain rolling mills are assets responsible for processing cereals in order to turn them into food suitable for animal digestion. Grain rolling takes place by passing the grain between two rollers, which can be smooth, knurled or grooved. This process crushes and fragments the grains. The nutritional value of the processed cereals is thus altered,… Continue reading Grain rolling mills: everything you need to know
