Case Studies - Rotating Equipment Condition Monitoring
Coal Mining Company
Challenge:
Client was experiencing persistent failures in their in-plant generator. Estimated loss due to downtime with each failure: $160,000 per day.
Solution:
Miniotec's IoT sensors were installed. We detected a brush failure within the generator 13 days after installation.
Thermal Power Plant
Challenge:
The client was experiencing unplanned downtime on at least three (3) occasions in the past year. Estimated $250,000+ loss in revenue each day of downtime.
Solution:
IoT sensors were installed within the operating power generation facility. Our technology detected a start of vane pump failure within six (6) weeks of installation.
International Airport
Challenge:
Failures on complex baggage handling equipment have a major impact on flight schedules and passenger satisfaction.
Solution:
IoT sensors were installed within their facility detecting the fault in the motor bearing within one (1) week. A basic $65 bearing was replaced during a regular maintenance shutdown instead of having a $5,000 gearbox fail during peak usage.
Fertilizer Plant
Challenge:
Client was experiencing persistent failures in two (2) of their plant motors. Estimated loss due to downtime with each failure: $150,000 per day
Solution:
Our IoT sensors were installed within their facility and detected a bearing outer race failure within six (6) weeks of installation.
Case Studies - Fluid Condition Monitoring Sensor
Wind Generation
Challenge:
Planetary bearing faults, make up a majority of wind turbine generator failures. They are difficult to detect during their early stages and are typically managed through end of life using vibration systems alone.
Solution:
Traditional borescope methods could not locate any fault. We deployed our wear debris sensor to assess and monitor fault severity. We observed abnormal wear levels shortly after deployment. Total savings: >$250k
Coal Mining Operations
Challenge:
A high percentage of coolant leaks are not detected early enough using periodic oil samples, causing secondary damage or catastrophic failure of the engine.
Solution:
