Key Features
 

1. Comprehensive Data Acquisition
 

• Supports Multiple Data Sources: Compatible with portable, route-based devices for technicians, permanently installed wireless sensors, and advanced wired online systems.

• Adaptable to Third-Party Hardware: Can integrate with existing systems, enhancing them with advanced diagnostics.

• Examples:

  • TRIO – DP-2: Portable device with 4 channels, suitable for all accessible rotating assets.

  • Online i800: Versatile online system for critical, inaccessible assets like compressors and gearboxes.

  • Wireless AccelTM 310: Fully wireless, high-resolution triaxial sensor for continuous monitoring of common industrial assets.
     

2. Automated Diagnostics (ExpertALERT™)
 

• AI-Driven Diagnostic Engine: Uses a rule-based system with over 6,000 trained diagnostic rules and can identify 1,200+ unique fault conditions across 50+ machinery component types.

• Prioritized Repair Recommendations: Provides actionable, ranked repair actions with confidence scoring, allowing analysts to process data at more than double the capacity of traditional programs.

• Automated Machine Speed Data Normalization: Ensures accurate diagnostics regardless of machine speed variations.

• Example: The system can automatically detect and prioritize faults in a gearbox, recommending specific maintenance actions based on severity and confidence.
   

3. Scalable Vibration Analysis Services
 

• Flexible Service Options: Ranges from coaching and setup to full-service analysis and second-opinion requests.

• Backed by Certified Analysts: Services are supported by experienced vibration analysts who can quickly operationalize a program and demonstrate value through benchmark metrics.

• Example: A plant can outsource its vibration analysis to Azima DLI, receiving regular, actionable reports and expert support.
