Remote monitoring of hydraulic cylinder health with vibration, temperature, and pressure sensors.
What Is Predictive Maintenance?
Predictive maintenance (PdM) is a modern maintenance strategy that monitors equipment condition in real time to predict failures before they occur. Unlike preventive maintenance, maintenance timing is determined by the actual condition of the equipment.
IoT sensors and data analytics are the fundamental tools of this approach.
Monitored Parameters
Vibration analysis: Early detection of bearing and gasket wear. Temperature monitoring: Indicator of excessive friction and oil degradation. Pressure monitoring: Tracking of internal leakage and pump efficiency.
Oil contamination sensors continuously measure particle levels to optimise filter replacement timing.
Implementation and ROI
Predictive maintenance investment pays back quickly through savings in unplanned downtime costs and extended equipment life. It is particularly preferred on critical production lines and facilities operating 24/7.
AHYD Parts supports your predictive maintenance processes with comprehensive diagnostics and pressure testing before overhaul.
