Alarm analysis

The message analysis makes hidden causes of machine downtimes visible. Unplanned downtimes cost money - our solution helps to drastically reduce such downtimes before they become expensive. They increase system availability and reduce maintenance costs.
What is the alarm analysis?

No more unforeseen breakdowns.

Alarm analysis is an intelligent analysis tool for your production. It automatically records and analyzes all error messages, warnings and alarms from your machines in real time.

Instead of relying on manual notes or isolated alarm displays, you receive a centralized evaluation: Which faults occur most frequently? When and on which system? Are there patterns or recurring chains of causes? Our software converts raw data (e.g. represented error messages as bit arrays) of the machine messages into clear findings. For example, you can see directly which 20% of faults are responsible for 80% of downtime - or you can see which simultaneously occurring warning messages lead to faults that subsequently cause system downtime.

In short: alarm analysis means full transparency in order to tackle availability problems in a targeted manner.

How does the alarm analysis work?

All control messages, available forever.

Our software records all messages, which are usually already available in the controller, in real time. We support all common control systems, e.g. S7, OPC-UA or Beckhoff via the connector library of our IIoT Application Platform. We generate a model from the raw data that recognizes error and message events for each system, station and process and makes them immediately available in numerous evaluations.

Precisely tailored to the needs of your maintenance staff and process experts.

When does the alarm analysis make sense?

Challenges addressed

Frequent unexplained failures

Long downtimes and slow troubleshooting

No overview of error causes

This is how our solution pays for itself!

Measurable advantages

  • Problems are identified and rectified more quickly and unplanned downtimes are drastically reduced.
  • Automatic notifications and clear root cause analyses shorten the response time in the event of malfunctions - production restarts more quickly.
  • All faults are recorded objectively. Decisions on improvement measures are based on data instead of gut feeling. "Getting to the root of faults" is possible because you know exactly where to start.
  • Continuous monitoring allows you to see the success or failure of measures immediately. This promotes a culture of continuous optimization (CIP) on the store floor.
  • Fewer fire department call-outs and searches in the fog - operators and maintenance staff can work more proactively and have less stress in the event of an incident.
