Process

How maintenance measures are derived from machine data

  • 1

    On-site data collection

    A dedicated industrial PC collects all relevant machine data (sensors, control signals, status, alarms) directly from the machine.

  • 2

    Visualization and access

    Data is accessible via the local HMI or company network, offering web-based, role-based, and mobile-ready display.

  • 3

    Data integration

    Optional connection to AVEVA PI System or central data platforms via standardized interfaces.

  • 4

    Improved services

    By leveraging machine-collected data, SKAN Field Engineer Services can resolve issues faster and more efficiently.

Service highlights

For smarter maintenance

  • Optimized maintenance planning

    Maintenance windows can be precisely scheduled based on actual usage data, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing costs.

  • Quick implementation

    Plug-and-play installation for new systems. Retrofitting existing systems is also possible within a week.

  • Data-driven decision support

    Access to comprehensive, structured data improves process optimization and supports informed operational decisions.

    Integration into existing systems within few business days

FAQs

  • The system captures machine data directly from the PLC, including:

    • Sensor values: temperature, humidity, pressure, particles, flow rate
    • Control data: valve and fan operation, actuator cycles
    • Condition data: production phases, operating modes, usage patterns
    • Alarm and event data: alarms, acknowledgments, warnings
    • Maintenance history: component replacements
    • Planning data: scheduled maintenance, planned downtime
  • Installed via an industrial PC, SKAN sphere health connects directly to the existing SKAN PLC. Ready for use in new isolators, it can be retrofitted into existing systems within a week without major automation or validation efforts.

  • The system provides precise information on component usage and remaining life, enabling targeted, proactive maintenance instead of reactive repairs. This reduces unplanned downtime, cuts costs, and improves equipment availability.

  • Yes. SKAN sphere health is designed to be activated and stopped anytime depending on your requirements.
