Will Full-Time Virtual Vibration Analysts Become a Reality?
Artificial intelligence and automation has made greater and greater strides within the manufacturing industry. The question on many people’s minds is just how far these digital tools will go in managing processes that are currently human-led.
4 Tactics to Increase Overall Equipment Effectiveness
Manufacturing is an industry driven by competition and the best way to come out on top is to prioritise efficiency. The companies who turn the most profit are the ones who have figured out the most effective processes and procedures. Overall equipment efficiency is a measure of how well organisations maximise their output, minimise their downtime, and generally run like a well-oiled machine.

We’re currently in the midst of Industry 4.0, or the fourth industrial revolution. This era is defined by growing automation and data exchange in industrial technologies. Some of the tools that are now at our disposal include:
Revisiting Equipment Criticality Assessment
In a previous post, we outlined the basics of equipment criticality: what it is and why it’s important for prioritising inspections and maintenance work.
