Preventing asset failure with condition monitoring

Using ATS Reliability 360® Machine Health Monitoring, critical vibration anomalies were detected in a dry-off oven bearing and a pump, well before failure. The data irregularity triggered an alert, which prompted the ATS condition monitoring experts (CME) to analyze the data. After analysis, the CME sent a recommendation to the maintenance team, enabling them to schedule repairs during planned downtime.

Through ATS sourcing and parts expertise, the on-site team was able to get the parts needed to repair the oven fan’s bearing and shaft, along with the pump and motor, without disrupting production. Post-repair diagnostics confirmed normalized vibration levels, validating the effectiveness of predictive maintenance in avoiding unplanned downtime.
