Context
The maintenance of machinery is usually based on corrective and preventive methods that have the disadvantage of overestimating the need for inspections and shutdowns without minimising the risk of breakdowns.
There is currently an underlying trend in the world of industry 4.0, that of predictive maintenance using multiple data from different sensors to predict faults, ageing and end of life in a piece of equipment. The technology of Amiral Technologies, based on an innovation of the laboratory at CNRS GIPSA-Lab, is aimed at equipment manufacturers and providers of industrial IoT platforms.
Technology
Amiral Technologies offers:
- A unique innovation in algorithms for automatic feature generation, regardless of the nature of the input time signals (electric signal, temperature, humidity, vibration, etc., or a combination of these signals) and without the need for professional expertise. The features generated in this way are richer and more discriminating, and produce higher performance with the AI and Machine Learning algorithms.
- Generic and specific AI models, ready to be adapted to the specific requirements of the equipment in order to interpret, predict and generate relevant maintenance alerts: faulty equipment, signs of ageing and the approach of the end of working life.
Advantages
- Express-design predictive models (a few days rather than several months)
- Immediate savings in maintenance costs (30 to 50% depending on the current process)
- Immediate improvement in equipment availability
- Up to 100% (results obtained on a real industrial dataset)
State of progress
The technology was implemented at the laboratory and validated on industrial data.
Amiral Technologies won the Digital Industry Program challenge organised by General Electric for predictive maintenance for their client HP.
A number of industrial studies are in progress to obtain a full proof of concept on sites.
Applications
- Prediction of the duration of working life: Generic model and its application for industrial contactors and turbo reactors.
- Prediction of defects: Generic model and its application to railway points and industrial printers.
- Prediction of ageing: Generic model and its application to wind turbines and induction motors.
