Proactive Machine and Plant Monitoring
Plex Systems offers Asset Performance Management (APM) to proactively monitor machine and plant health, ensuring optimal uptime, throughput, and maintenance needs. By leveraging analytics and Industrial IoT technology, users gain deeper insight into plant-floor equipment to enable predictive maintenance strategies. This approach helps in reducing production disruptions caused by surprise outages and machine failures.
Drive Predictive Maintenance
By implementing Plex APM, organizations can drive predictive maintenance initiatives effectively. This solution decreases the time required to diagnose machine health events, improves historical data traceability, and enhances overall operational efficiency. With early identification of potential machine disruptions, operational disruptions and downtime can be minimized, leading to cost savings and increased productivity.
Contextualize IT/OT Data for Informed Decisions
Plex APM enables users to contextualize IT/OT data in a single view, connecting plant floor data with MES data. This unified view supports informed decision-making by providing a comprehensive understanding of machine performance and health. By consolidating data silos into a cohesive system, organizations can enhance productivity and drive operational excellence.
Maximize Uptime and Reduce Downtime
With Plex Asset Performance Management, companies can maximize uptime by eliminating unplanned downtime and hitting production targets consistently. Real-time data collection and built-in analytics empower users to capture live data on machine health and performance, compare it against predefined states, and receive early notifications of potential disruptions. This proactive approach reduces overtime labor costs, scrap, emergency maintenance expenses, and overall impact on the profit and loss statement.
Consolidate Data Silos and Improve Operational Visibility
By using Plex APM, organizations can improve their ability to identify and prevent machine health incidents. The platform allows users to manage all data in one system, creating context and connected workflows that enhance operational efficiency. This alignment with Smart Manufacturing principles ensures precision and agility in responding to operational challenges.
