Introduction
In today's industrial landscape, unexpected equipment failures and unplanned downtime can cost companies millions. Enging, an innovative Portuguese company founded in 2011, has redefined predictive maintenance with its disruptive, non-invasive monitoring technology. By exclusively analyzing electrical variables through its user-friendly web platform, ePreditMntc®, Enging enables early detection of faults—up to 6–9 months before they could lead to catastrophic failures.
The Challenge
Industrial facilities often struggle with the limitations of traditional maintenance approaches that rely on periodic inspections or invasive sensors. Such methods can miss early signs of degradation in critical electric assets—such as transformers, rotating machines, and power converters—leading to unexpected downtimes, costly repairs, and lost productivity. The need was clear: a reliable, non-intrusive solution that could continuously monitor equipment health and provide actionable insights.
The Solution
Enging's innovative system addresses these challenges head-on by:
- Non-Invasive Monitoring: Utilizing split-core current transformers and voltage transformers, Enging's solution captures real-time data on motor current and voltage without any invasive installation or the need for downtime.
- Advanced Electrical Analysis: By focusing solely on electric variables, the system applies deterministic algorithms to isolate the electrical signature of each asset. This unique approach distinguishes between normal operating variations and early fault indicators.
- User-Friendly Platform: The ePreditMntc® web platform provides maintenance teams with clear, actionable alerts and detailed trend analyses, enabling them to schedule proactive interventions before minor issues escalate.
- Conclusion
Enging's pioneering approach in predictive maintenance is setting a new standard for industrial asset management. By eliminating the need for invasive sensor installations and leveraging the power of real-time electrical data analysis, Enging not only prevents costly equipment failures but also extends the operational life of critical assets. This transformative solution helps companies boost reliability, cut costs, and achieve a competitive edge in today's demanding industrial environment.
