MeterDesk for Industrial Analytics
Industrial Analytics is a system to record, process, analyze and report on the data from industrial sensors to improve industrial processes and thus business profitability.
Need for Industrial Analytics
- Modern equipments come with large number sensors
- Data is often captured by SCADA systems for real-time monitoring and control
- Most of the data is either discarded or ignored
- If utilized properly such data can provide valuable information, which can improve production processes, and increase profitability
Potential Uses of Industrial Analytics
- Track equipment running when not needed
- Optimize energy utilization across the factory
- Identify peak demand and avoid hitting the limit
- Identify equipments consuming more energy
- Track activities running during peak hour
- Track and optimize power factor to improve efficiency & avoid penalty
- Time shifting activities to when energy is cheap
- Cost benefit analysis for equipment upgrades
- Predict equipment failures based on sensor data
- Calculate mean time between failure of equipment
- Measure and track results of optimization projects or new device installations
- Keep track of performance of remote factories centrally
- Management reporting of production metrics
- Seasonal comparison of equipment usage and performance, e.g., HVAC units
