Pumps, motors, and fan units

In 2018, this food manufacturer was committed to improving reliability and overall OEE performance within their Brisbane snack manufacturing plant (7 production lines).

The local team identified FitMachine as a wireless sensor solution that could provide continuous condition monitoring oversight on a range of critical pumps, motors, and fan units.

FitMachine was up and running in less than 3 hours with no tool or machine downtime required.

Within months FitMachine had proven long-term value for the customer – providing the early warning required so as to avoid a lengthy unplanned downtime period.

From an initial investment of less than USD 10,000, FitMachine saved this plant a conservative $300,000 in lost production.
