For Factory Maintenance Managers | Transition from Reactive to Predictive Maintenance

Do you have any issues like these?

• Maintenance operations rely heavily on the “intuition” and experience of skilled technicians.
• Despite aiming for predictive maintenance, repairs still end up being reactive-fixing equipment only after it breaks, resulting in losses.

When will the machine break down? When should the parts be exchanged?

No more unexpected breakdown that stops your production line. No more emergency callouts to the site! Optimize parts replacement timing and eliminate unnecessary maintenance costs!

Low cost Wi-Fi vibration sensor "conanair" gauges vibrations from the machine, detecting equipment failures before they happen. By finding the rattling in the motor, it can even detect bearing abnormalities. Explosion-proof models can be used in Zone 1 hazardous areas, including designated plants, factories, and warehouses. conanair streamlines equipment maintenance.

3 Technical Features of "conanair" to Realize Predictive Maintenance and Eliminate Downtime

　Low-cost & Easy Installation: Wireless Vibration Sensor Design
It's easy to get started since conanair is wireless and attaches anywhere magnetically, and no application is required. Furthermore, other devices that measure vibration can cost up to $3000, whereas conanair costs only a fraction of that price. Comes with analysis and data-collection software. Powered by readily available batteries. No installation is required, enabling immediate operation.

　Eliminate Routine Patrols: Reduce Maintenance Costs and Labor
It allows your technicians to focus more on planned maintenance tasks. Freeing up time, reducing expenses & having better equipment maintenance. Anyone can perform effective maintenance through simple data management, helping address workforce shortages.

　Flexible Operation & Utilize Raw Data for AI/Digital Twin Integration
You can choose manual or automatic modes. conanair saves raw waveform data. Data can be utilized with many tools and easily integrated with existing or new systems. System integration enables DX and digitalization of maintenance operations, making it easy to build labor-saving maintenance systems using digital twins and generative AI.

　End the cycle of fixing things only after they break.

 

Reliable operation doesn't require expensive equipment-it requires the right system. Discover the secrets behind conanair's low-cost technology and learn practical installation steps you can apply on-site starting tomorrow.
