Compressed air leaks in a stamping operation
A Tier 2 automotive stamping factory
Permanent monitoring revealed compressed air continuing to flow into an otherwise idle factory overnight.
20–30%of compressor output
Predictive maintenanceBulk Handling & Rail LogisticsManufacturing: automotive, plastics & rubber
Conveyor-drive bearing degradation detected six weeks before failure
A bulk handling facility
The bearing’s vibration signature began changing approximately six weeks before the projected failure point.

Cooling towersWaterManufacturing: automotive, plastics & rubberBuilding Materials, Concrete & Aggregates
Cooling tower blowdown optimization
A plastics manufacturing factory
Blowdown was controlled by a timer rather than conductivity, causing usable water to be discharged unnecessarily.
