If you’re looking for new ways to maximize uptime, you might want to learn more about Industrial Internet of Things and how it can help in preventing machine breakdowns.
With a limited workforce and surging demands, many plants are becoming more proactive towards equipment reliability. They are utilizing IIoT devices such as Sensei OLEX. These plants have started with a pilot program and now are installing Sensei OLEX at additional plants.
Sensei OLEX allows maintenance personnel to quickly monitor oil level in hundreds of pieces of equipment through Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Sensei OLEX can also help Environmental, Health and Safety Managers improve their metrics in the areas of slips, trips and falls – which are the 2nd most common injuries in the workplace.
IIoT devices are not a one-size-fits-all-solution. There are many types of systems and devices that provide plants the ability to expand their technological endeavors. However, the decisions to implement IIoT can be complex and multifaceted. It is a unified effort between a variety of functions.
