IoT Empowered Predictive Maintenance

Session Abstract:

When milliseconds matter, IoT empowers companies and governments to optimize the performance of their machinery, fleets, infrastructure, and buildings.

Organizations that use IoT for predictive maintenance keep high-capital assets running at maximum efficiency and achieve greater production targets, lower operating costs, and minimize environment, health, and safety risks. Using data mining, advanced analytics, and data visualization, they detect hidden patterns in their data, allowing them to troubleshoot performance issues faster and more effectively – so that corrective action can be taken quickly.

Jennifer Robinson will lead a panel discussion on the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) for predictive maintenance and reliability. This panel will discuss AIoT technology in energy, manufacturing, and government – experiences, lessons learned, and best practices that can help organizations striving to improve asset performance.

Jennifer will be joined by experts who have worked on energy, manufacturing, and government projects and will discuss:
• how data ingestion, integration, visualization, and analytics tie together improve the reliability and availability of physical assets
• how predictive maintenance is keeping a company’s fleet safely in operation
• how a manufacturing company went from 0 to 10,000 operational models in under a year and how some of those models are running multiple times a second to oversee the health of their assets

This panel will be concluded with advice from these experienced technologists on how to embark on optimizing asset performance and the actions to take to position your organization for success.
