Stuart is a proven leader passionate about AI and able to successfully work through the hype to provide clients actual implementation in IoT and Machine Learning projects which provide true business value and positive ROI. His areas of specialty include IoT architectures, platforms, and technologies. With testimonial success applying leading innovation capabilities, Stuart has a unique perspective on how clients can enhance their creative aptitude and maximize their return on innovation investments.<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As manufacturers become increasingly connected, their systems, machines, sensors and other devices are generating a wealth of new data, and given the sheer volume of data generated, that isn\u2019t easily analyzed. It is a challenge that traditional manufacturing systems are not designed for \u2013 and manufacturers are missing out on valuable insights as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machine learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology can help, when implemented in support of an IoT strategy and validated through a strategic experiment that proves the potential value. Manufacturers should take a comprehensive approach to machine learning and analytics, integrating equipment, systems and people into a highly collaborative environment that rapidly adapts to changing operational requirements and operates on a scale much larger than simple IoT applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few ways manufacturing organizations can leverage predictive maintenance to identify potential issues, reduce the occurrence and length of unplanned downtime, and get the most value from assets and budgets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Integrate with IIoT&nbsp;platforms to monitor machine health and performance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enterprises can integrate predictive maintenance models into their manufacturing systems to actively monitor asset health and send alerts at optimal maintenance periods. For example, a worker installs sensors on machines and connects them to an IIoT platform. The sensors send machinery health data to the IIoT platform in real time and observe patterns of operation. The IIoT platform remotely monitors the health of the machinery \u2013 monitoring for anomalies or deviations. When conditions exceed machine learned thresholds, plant personnel are notified automatically through email\/SMS. This allows organizations to react quickly to otherwise unknown events thus improving overall operations. And by understanding the health of the machines, asset owners can act on issues before they become critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use ML to optimize production runs based on product, operator, and environmental conditions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often referred to as \u201cgolden runs,\u201d personnel can use ML techniques to evaluate hundreds or thousands of individual product runs to identify the optimal process parameter settings capable of producing the maximum throughput. This gives operators the ideal settings based on current conditions to maximize yield. Then going one step further, AI and model predictive control techniques can be implemented to automatically set the appropriate machine parameters allowing operators to focus on more pressing needs to keep a manufacturing line running optimally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unite additional plant systems to achieve an end-to-end solution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>End-to-end automation provides an overall increase in labor productivity and helps plants operate at their optimal maintenance cost. For example, the predictive models integrated with Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) can trigger automated work orders based on production schedules, resource availability and machine health conditions \u2013 a true end-to-end solution. Plant management derives value through production planning, asset lifecycle costing, improved throughput and resource allocation optimizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, companies that implement ML capabilities into their digital transformation strategies can minimize downtime and production losses while improving the quality of goods. By automating important, yet labor intensive tasks like scheduling work orders, forecasting, and ordering new parts, manufacturers achieve greater efficiency and higher output by reducing human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sign up for the free insideBIGDATA&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/insidebigdata.com\/newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\">newsletter<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Join us on Twitter:&nbsp;@InsideBigData1 \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/InsideBigData1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/InsideBigData1<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this special guest feature, Stuart Gillen, Senior Manager at Kalypso, offers a few ways manufacturing organizations can leverage predictive maintenance to identify potential issues, reduce the occurrence and length of unplanned downtime, and get the most value from assets and budgets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10513,"featured_media":26627,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[115,87,180,61,75,56,97,1],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 -
