The machine that keeps stopping
Every operation has one. It goes down every few weeks, always at the worst time, and everyone has a theory. Predictive maintenance is worth doing when a warning would actually change what you do — and worth skipping when it would not.
The first question
If you knew four days ahead, what would you do differently? If the part is on the shelf and the fix takes an hour, four days of warning is enormously valuable. If the part takes six weeks to arrive, a four-day warning tells you precisely when to start being annoyed. The useful warning horizon is set by your supply chain, not by the algorithm.
The second question: do you already have the data?
Usually more than people think. Machines with a PLC are often logging already. Maintenance records, even handwritten ones, tell us how often things failed and what was replaced. Energy meters catch a surprising amount — motors draw differently as bearings go. If none of that exists, a handful of clip-on sensors costs less than most people assume, but it means starting the clock: you need failures to learn from, and they happen on their own schedule.
How we phase it
The honest version
For a lot of smaller operations, the win is not a model. It is that maintenance history stopped living in a notebook and started being searchable. We will tell you if that is where your money is best spent.
Tell us which machine it is
We will tell you whether it is predictable.
