Find your machine, not your industry.

A gearbox behaves the same in a sugar mill and a cement plant. This index is organised by equipment, for when you know the machine but not which sector page applies.

This index is organised by equipment, not by industry. A gearbox behaves like a gearbox whether it drives a sugar mill or a cement kiln, and the signals that reveal its condition are the same in both. If you know what the machine is but not which industry page applies, start here.

Looking for your sector instead? The solutions index is organised by industry and production process.

Rotating equipment

Continuous-duty machines whose condition is written in vibration long before it appears in output.

EQUIPMENTLarge gearboxesMill, kiln, conveyor and press drives — stage-wise vibration with named defect frequencies.EQUIPMENTAir compressorsScrew and reciprocating: specific power, load factor, leak load, airend health.COMPONENTBearingsRemaining-life tracking per position, from signature and duty history.METHODAny rotating assetTri-axial sensing with per-machine learned baselines.

Machine tools

Cycle-driven machines where the part count is the ground truth and setup is the hidden loss.

EQUIPMENTCNC machining centres and turningVMC, HMC, turning, grinding and EDM — the flagship deployment.COMPONENTCutting tools and insertsCounted life per tool-part pair, with change scheduling.EQUIPMENTConventional and legacy machinesPresses, hammers and pre-electronic equipment, via hardwired I/O.

Thermal and process equipment

Batch machines where the loss is measured in held temperature and empty chamber time.

EQUIPMENTFurnaces and heat treatmentSealed quench, pit, bogie hearth and induction — batch, profile and idle energy.EQUIPMENTPretreatment tanks and linesBath temperature, dwell per carrier, per-tank energy.METHODAny powered machinePer-machine kWh and energy per good part, via CT or meter.

Test benches and rigs

Equipment whose output is a document: a test record that has to survive years of warranty.

Questions

Straight answers.

How is this different from the solutions index?

The solutions index is organised by industry and production process; this one is organised by equipment. Both lead to the same platform — they exist because plant heads search both ways, and a compressor problem is a compressor problem regardless of sector.

Can one plant mix all of these?

Yes, and most do. Machining centres, a furnace, an air compressor and a test bench can share one on-premises server, one login and one set of KPI definitions.

Which equipment gives the fastest measurable result?

Usually the air compressor, because it runs continuously at near-constant load, which makes both its energy waste and its condition trend unusually easy to establish.

Does older equipment need to be replaced to be monitored?

No. Machines with no electronics connect through Gateway boards using hardwired signals — run state, strokes, counts and sensor channels — and appear on the same dashboard as new CNCs.

What is measured on a machine that has no output count?

State and condition. For utilities and drives the useful measures are runtime, load, energy and vibration rather than parts produced.

Can you monitor a machine we have not listed here?

Very likely. The determining factor is whether a signal is accessible — through a control, a meter, a PLC tag or a sensor we can wire — not the machine's category.
