Predictive Maintenance with AI: Stop Breakdowns Before They Happen
Unplanned downtime costs manufacturers $50B annually. AI prevents it.
How Predictive Maintenance Works
1. Sensors collect data (vibration, temperature, etc.)
2. AI analyzes patterns
3. Model predicts failures
4. Maintenance scheduled proactively
5. Breakdown prevented
Key Benefits
| Metric | Improvement |
|---|---|
| Unplanned downtime | -30-50% |
| Maintenance costs | -25-30% |
| Equipment life | +20-40% |
| Safety incidents | -70% |
Data Sources
- Vibration sensors
- Temperature monitors
