When it moves away from normal, it alerts maintenance in time to act. Custom: we install and test it in your plant [Tell us about your line](https://bionicadri.com/en/contacto.html#formulario) · [View all cases](https://bionicadri.com/en/ia-para-fabricas.html#casos) Workshop · example **Extractor 2** Extractor motor Within normal range Drive-side bearing Vibration outside normal range Alert to maintenance: check the bearing. A person opens the work order with a button. Illustrative example ## What the sensors monitor Sensors that attach to the machine from the outside, without touching its control. Custom: we install and test it in your plant ### Vibration A bearing that starts to fail, an imbalance or looseness usually change how the machine vibrates before the breakdown. Custom: we install and test it in your plant #### Motor and bearing temperature A motor that gets hotter than usual signals that something is rubbing, needs greasing or is jamming. Custom: we install and test it in your plant #### Power consumption A motor that uses more than usual for the same work is due a check. Custom: we install and test it in your plant #### Running hours Preventive maintenance based on actual use, not just the calendar: counting how long each machine has run. Custom: we install and test it in your plant #### Compared with its own history Every machine has its own normal: an old pump may vibrate more than a new one and still be fine. The AI compares against what is normal for that machine. [Available today](https://bionicadri.com/en/mantenimiento-gmao.html) #### Spare parts with reorder point When the alert arrives, the spare part is already tracked in the maintenance module, with its stock and reorder point. View maintenance (CMMS) ## From the data to the person who can act An alert that doesn't reach the person who can fix it is useless. That's why we design it back to front. 1. **The sensor measures** Measures vibration, temperature or consumption at intervals. At first it only watches and learns what normal operation looks like for that machine. 2. **The AI compares** It compares each reading with that machine's history, under the same conditions. It only alerts when it moves away from normal and stays there, not because of a one-off spike. 3. **A person opens the work order** The alert reaches maintenance with the asset and what it has detected. A person opens the work order with a button, so the workshop doesn't fill up with false alarms. ## What works today and what is custom Available today - **Work orders** for the workshop: pending, in progress, completed with the work carried out. - **Preventive maintenance** every N days, with email and bell notification when it falls due. - **Spare parts** with reorder point, and **alerts** that are acknowledged and resolved. - From a control room stoppage, a button opens the workshop order. What already works is in [maintenance (CMMS)](https://bionicadri.com/en/mantenimiento-gmao.html). Custom: we install it and test it at your plant - **Vibration, temperature and consumption sensors** on your machines. - **The AI that learns what is normal** for each machine from its history. - **The alert that leads to the work order**. Today the order is opened by a person; if your plant prefers something else, we'll talk about it. - GPU server at your plant or in Europe. ## These sensors measure machines, not people **There are no images or sound of anyone here.** The sensors measure the machine: how it vibrates, how hot it gets and how much it consumes. If you also want cameras on the plant floor, those do have their rules: we explain them on the [AI for factories page](https://bionicadri.com/en/ia-para-fabricas.html#ley). ## One line first, then you decide 1. **We choose critical machines** The ones that are hardest to stop, the ones that take longest to repair or the ones that have already given you problems. One, two or three to start with. 2. **Sensors and learning** We fit them and let them learn how each machine works in its normal conditions. 3. **We adjust the alerts** We fine-tune when to alert and who to alert, and decide whether to extend it to more machines. ## What we're usually asked **How long does it take to learn how my machine works?** It depends on how much its work changes: a machine that always does the same thing is learned faster than one with many products. Until it has enough history, it alerts with caution. **Does it work for old machines?** Yes, because the sensor is fitted from the outside and there is no need to touch the machine's control. We'll look at it during the visit. **What do I do when an alert comes in?** Maintenance looks at the machine, decides and, if necessary, opens the work order with a button. The alert does not replace the judgement of the person who knows the machine. **Does it replace preventive maintenance?** No: it adds to it. Calendar-based preventive maintenance stays in place, and condition-based alerts cover what the calendar does not see. ## More on this topic ### [All use cases](https://bionicadri.com/en/ia-para-fabricas.html) The twenty-something use cases, by plant area and with their tag.
