Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The petrochemical industry produces products of tremendous value through labor-intensive and complex processes. Any unexpected equipment failure may result in a production shutdown and significant losses. With Industry 4.0 becoming a key development trend for manufacturing industries, the petrochemical industry is beginning to incorporate smart manufacturing, and leverage data insights. Prowave, with three decades of experience in equipment vibration research, collaborated with ADLINK to develop a new machine condition monitoring system for a large Taiwan petrochemical company. The result was increased reliability and safer operation of their production equipment<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reduced costs and payback periods spur adoption of machine condition monitoring solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prowave successfully helped a major petrochemical company in Taiwan incorporate a machine monitoring system operating across multiple production sites. The system not only enables the company to stay on top of the operating conditions of the production line equipment but also generates additional benefits.
Smartization in manufacturing is still in the early stages, so many manufacturers are hesitant to introduce smart systems into their production process. In particular, machine condition monitoring systems are not considered revenue-generating equipment. Moreover, given their high upfront cost and long payback period, manufacturers generally take a wait-and-see attitude toward their adoption. However, there is a hidden side to development. If we look closely at current market developments, we will find market-leading manufacturers have long engaged in building up machine condition monitoring systems. This usage vouches for the value of these systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
