挑战
Tropical Shipping 是一家货运服务提供商，运营着一支由 17 艘船舶组成的船队和数千项资产，在维护各种设备方面面临着重大挑战。该公司的业务不是传统的公路运输船队，而是涉及管理集装箱在船上和船上的移动。 Tropical Shipping 的首要任务是设备可靠性，因为任何维护和可靠性的缺乏都可能会对业务产生重大影响。该公司负责维护运营、装卸、仓储和安全设备的质量。这意味着不仅要满足外部客户，还要满足内部客户。此外，公司必须遵守各种法规，特别是与健康和安全相关的法规。管理如此多样化的设备并遵守众多法规需要一个能够提供实时、准确数据的强大系统。
解决方案
Tropical Shipping 通过实施良好的维护方案并促进各部门之间的合作来应对这些挑战。该公司还利用技术来管理收到的大量信息。关键是要有实时、准确的数据来驱动自我纠正行为。该公司专注于充分利用现有系统的能力，而不是投资新软件。这涉及检查系统的使用方式以及它们是否可以充分利用来满足运营需求。如果没有，公司会考虑升级或改进软件。 Tropical Shipping 还致力于采取主动或预防性措施，而不是被动应对，不断寻找改进和使用 KPI 的方法，并创建有利于自身的报告。该公司还在探索更多自动化方法，以减少员工的工作量并提高效率和生产力。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
