Background
Imagine you are a nurse on the night shift. Most patients are asleep and stable. But some have oxygen deprivation, high blood pressure or fever. You are all alone and have to monitor hundreds of patients. Without technical aids.
The machine measurement technology manufacturer Status Pro faced exactly this challenge together with its customers. Only these are not human patients, but rather machines or real estate, some of which are far apart and do their work. Most machines are fine most of the time. But it is, in the truest sense of the word, vital to know early on whether the condition of a machine is deteriorating. And not only when it is too late and the patient can no longer be saved.
Status Pro used its know-how in measurement technology and developed modern sensors that measure the “pulse” of the machines. However, measuring the values does not solve the challenge. The same applies here as with the nurse: she will not be helped if only important vital parameters are measured. In addition, the data must always be provided reliably and in real time. If there are a large number of patients, it is important that they are made aware of the patients in critical condition and that important additional information about the affected patient is immediately provided, such as: B. illness and the treating doctor.
This in turn can be projected onto the challenge faced by Status Pro and its customers: successful monitoring requires
1. reliable machine data,
2. fast and stable processing of data,
3. intuitive information provision with a focus on critical cases,
4. Relevant context for troubleshooting.
In addition, the necessary knowledge is often distributed across several stakeholders. For example, the machine measurement technicians have the know-how about sensors, the electrical machine builders about the machines and the operators of the production lines about the production processes. This results in a high level of communication and coordination effort, especially when problems arise.
Complementary software for processing, visualizing and configuring sensor data was intended to address this complex challenge and increase added value for customers.
