Condition Monitoring

Since the beginning of the industrial age more emphasis has been placed on production plant reliability. With early production, frequent disruptions and equipment failures were commonplace. Since the 1970’s, with better analysis tools available such as electronic vibration instrumentation and lubricant chemical analysis, a trend towards ‘Predictive Maintenance’ developed. This has continued to improve over time with more effective practices like ‘Proactive Maintenance’ and ‘Reliability Engineering’.

AMT has the 'tools' to run a successful Maintenance Management Program (MMP). We have the expertise and equipment to look after the most important aspects of your MMP, including Vibration Analysis, Machine Condition Monitoring, Rotor Balancing, Shaft Alignment and Geometric Laser Technology, Ultrasonic Leak Detection and Thermal Imaging.

The benefits of Condition Based Maintenance:

  • Support corporate objectives to generate maximum revenues at minimum cost

  • Reduce fuel/energy costs

  • Reduce parts and labour

  • Extend time between overhauls

  • Increase machine availability

  • Increase throughput

  • Reduce catastrophic failures

  • Improve safety

  • Optimize manpower deployment
