For eight years, Asensiot has helped industrial customers turn offline condition monitoring measurements into actionable maintenance insights. Now, we are expanding our services to include online condition monitoring, giving customers greater flexibility in how they monitor their assets and manage maintenance risks.
By combining monitoring technology with specialist expertise, we help maintenance teams understand equipment condition, identify developing issues, and prioritize the actions that matter most.
From condition data to maintenance decisions
Condition monitoring helps identify developing mechanical issues, but detecting change is only the first step. Maintenance teams also need to understand the significance of their findings and determine what action is appropriate.
Online monitoring provides continuous visibility into equipment condition, helping identify changes between scheduled measurements.
This is particularly valuable for critical assets, machinery operating under changing conditions, or equipment where an undetected fault could have significant consequences. For example, a developing change in vibration levels may prompt investigation before the next scheduled measurement.
However, continuous data alone does not guarantee better maintenance. Expert interpretation is essential to distinguish significant changes from normal operating variations and determine the appropriate response.
Choosing the right monitoring approach
Not every asset requires continuous monitoring. The right strategy depends on equipment criticality, operating conditions, potential failure consequences, and maintenance objectives.
Asensiot offers three complementary approaches:
Offline Condition Screening (Route-based)
Regular condition measurements, typically performed monthly, are combined with expert analysis to assess equipment health and identify developing issues. This approach suits assets that can be monitored reliably through periodic measurements, without requiring continuous data collection.
- Vibscanner 2 + RFID tags
- ATEX option
Online Condition Monitoring (Continuous)
Continuous data collection provides ongoing visibility into equipment condition and helps reveal changes as they develop. Expert interpretation supports the assessment of developing issues, helping maintenance teams determine whether further investigation or maintenance action is needed.
- Twave + existing or new sensors
- Valmet DMM via Azure
- SKF on-premises data
- Other sources via REST API
Combined Approach
Combining online monitoring with offline screening and in-depth expert analysis provides both continuous visibility and a more detailed assessment of machinery condition.
This approach is valuable for investigating complex issues or when continuous data alone does not provide enough information to understand a developing problem.
Technology and expertise working together
Asensiot combines monitoring technology, analytical capabilities, and specialist knowledge to help maintenance teams take a more proactive approach to equipment reliability.
Integrations with computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) can connect monitoring findings with maintenance planning and execution. Transparent return on investment (ROI) calculations can also help organizations evaluate the operational and financial value of their monitoring activities.
By focusing on actionable insights, we help customers prioritize maintenance resources, avoid unnecessary interventions, reduce the risk of unplanned downtime, and improve equipment reliability.
Turning monitoring insights into maintenance impact
With online condition monitoring now part of our services, Asensiot offers greater flexibility in managing equipment health and maintenance risks. Building on eight years of offline monitoring experience, we continue to help customers make informed decisions, evaluate maintenance results, and understand the value of their monitoring investments.
