  • Fiix and Nanoprecise unite to take real-time asset performance monitoring to a new level

    The importance of partnerships not only from a vendor to a customer but from vendor to vendor to create a holistic approach to maintenance and reliability is what is driving industry 4.0.

  • Rethink How You Collect Your Asset Data - Machine learning, image recognition, and expert crowdsourcing with Stephen Crampton from Utopia

    The importance of knowing what equipment we have where is the foundation of all of our reliability improvement initiatives, but do we truly know what we have? For most of us, the answer is no, we have an idea but not the fine details. Typically triggered on an event like a company merger or new capital projects, we send our highly skilled workers into the field to start collecting data, a lot of it. And this has been accepted as the way it is.

    There has to be a better way, and income Imagine recognition, AI, and proven practices and applications to increase the accuracy of the data and significantly reduce the amount of effort to collect and make sense of this data. I promise you, if you ever have to collect asset data again, you will want to listen to this podcast with Stephen Crampton of Utopia.
