Vibration and predictive maintenance in crushing

Reliability gained a continuous thread from sensor to alert to work order.

Luciai demonstration scenario — illustrates the module combination, no named customer.

Challenge

The problem at the plant

Crushers and conveyors suffered bearing failures detected too late. Maintenance worked reactively, with little unified history.

Solution

How Viziodata came in

Vibration sensors started feeding Viziodata via MQTT. TWF/FFT analysis and ML alerts generate maintenance notes and work orders on the Kanban, with the AI Assistant summarizing evidence for the reliability team.

Results

What changed

  • Vibration alerts before catastrophic failure
  • Predictive work orders with attached evidence
  • Fewer unnecessary field trips
