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

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

Industrial generator failures: what you need to know

Industrial generators are responsible for supplying industries with their electricity needs. As such, they are used in production flows that demand more energy than the traditional distribution network can offer or reach. These assets work in a similar way to the generators used to supply residential energy, but they have a much greater energy production… Continue reading Industrial generator failures: what you need to know
