Plant equipment monitoring

In planning

See wear coming before it stops a placement.

We’re planning hardware for the batch plant that watches the equipment Zylocon controls and warns you when something starts to drift, so maintenance happens on your schedule instead of in the middle of a placement.

The idea

Most plant breakdowns announce themselves early: a gate that’s a little slower each week, a scale that takes longer to settle, a motor that runs hot. The signs are there; nobody has time to watch for them.

Watch

Monitor the equipment that stops a plant when it fails: gates, valves, scales, motors and air supply.

Notice

Compare how each piece of equipment behaves today against how it normally behaves, and spot the change.

Warn

Tell the people who maintain the plant what is drifting and where, before it becomes a breakdown.

Why it belongs with the controls

The batch system already knows when each gate was told to open and how each scale responded. Monitoring built by the same people who build the controls can read those signals without guesswork.

It’s early. This is where the work starts, not a product you can order yet. We’ll publish real details here as the design firms up.

What fails at your plant?

Tell us which breakdowns cost you the most. The answers decide what this watches first.
