IoT-powered predictive maintenance system reducing downtime by 60% in manufacturing

An advanced predictive maintenance system combining IoT sensors, edge computing, and machine learning to predict equipment failures before they occur. The system monitors critical machinery in real-time, analyzes patterns, and alerts maintenance teams with precise failure predictions and recommended actions.
A large manufacturing facility experienced frequent unplanned downtime costing millions annually. Traditional preventive maintenance was inefficient—either too frequent (wasting resources) or too infrequent (leading to failures). They needed a data-driven approach to optimize maintenance schedules and prevent catastrophic failures.
We deployed IoT sensors across 200+ pieces of critical equipment, monitoring vibration, temperature, pressure, and other parameters. Edge computing devices process data locally for immediate anomaly detection, while cloud-based ML models analyze historical patterns to predict failures 2-4 weeks in advance. A custom dashboard provides maintenance teams with prioritized alerts and recommended actions.
