Artificial intelligence has quickly become one of the most talked-about technologies across every industry, including the electromechanical world. Depending on who you listen to, AI is either going to replace engineers and technicians, or it is just another overhyped tech trend. As is often the case, the reality sits somewhere in the middle. 

Artificial intelligence is one of the most talked about technologies in industry right now, but how much of it is actually being used inside EASA member companies? To better understand this, the Emerging Technologies Committee recently surveyed the membership about AI adoption in service centers.

For decades, digital visibility meant mastering search engine optimization. But it no longer tells the whole story. AI-driven search systems operate by new logic.

Knowing how to interact with Eddy can dramatically improve your results with technical questions, troubleshooting and documentation resources.

Wireless vibration monitoring enables proactive maintenance by providing real-time diagnostics, reducing downtime, and improving asset reliability. With evolving technology and lower costs, service providers can enhance offerings, strengthen customer relationships, and gain a competitive edge through predictive insights and smarter asset management strategies.

La monitorización inalámbrica de vibraciones permite un mantenimiento proactivo al proporcionar diagnósticos en tiempo real, reducir el tiempo de inactividad y mejorar la fiabilidad de los activos. Gracias a la evolución de la tecnología y la reducción de costes, los proveedores de servicios pueden optimizar su oferta, fortalecer las relaciones con los clientes y obtener una ventaja competitiva mediante información predictiva y estrategias de gestión de activos más inteligentes.

Large Language Models (LLMs), powered by artificial intelligence (AI), can process and generate human-like text, making them invaluable for a variety of applications, including technical support, documentation, and troubleshooting. Just remember, these tools can be prone to error and when unrealistic or poor prompts are used.

Pumps, compressors, fans and other types of mechanical movement are crucial to our industrial activities. Consequently, the health of these motors directly influences the operational reliability and longevity of the broader industrial ecosystem. Acknowledging this underscores the necessity for performing online health assessments of electric motors.

Las bombas, compresores, ventiladores y otros tipos de movimientos mecánicos son cruciales para nuestras actividades industriales. En consecuencia, la salud de estos motores influye directamente en la confiabilidad operativa y la longevidad del ecosistema industrial más amplio. Reconocer esto resalta la necesidad de evaluar la salud de los motores eléctricos en operación. 

The last couple of years, we have all heard a lot about digitalization, sensors, artificial intelligence, sustainability and machine learning. But what does it mean for us? This article focuses on the sensors and how they are linked to the electromechanical industry.

En los últimos años, todos hemos escuchado mucho sobre digitalización, sensores, inteligencia artificial, sostenibilidad y aprendizaje automático. Pero, ¿qué significa para nosotros? En este artículo, me centraré en los sensores y cómo se vinculan con la industria electromecánica.

This discussion highlights EASA’s overview guide on remote condition monitoring and answers questions from members on the booklet and, and remote condition monitoring in general.

This presentation provides an overview of common predictive technologies and information about applying them correctly.

An update on the work of EASA's Ad Hoc Committee on Emerging Technologies and the results of a recent member survey.

The electromechanical repair and service industry has evolved over decades by reacting to the various changes in the dynamic landscape. These changes are apparent in parallel with the development of evolving maintenance philosophies.

Following the squirrel cage induction motor, what will come next? This webinar provides an overview of potential successor technologies.

In March of 2019, EASA conducted an in-depth survey to better understand how end users decide between repairing or replacing electric motors and to identify electric motor repair/replacement trends. Internet-enabled condition monitoring has been a hot topic recently and, as a result, questions related to this were added to the list of survey questions. The survey returned some very interesting results about internet-enabled condition monitoring.

The internet is exceptionally good at one thing – providing data access. Similarly, computers which are the heart of the internet are good at dealing with data; they store data and analyze data. With the access to data provided by the internet and the storage and analysis capabilities of computers, results are possible now that could only be dreamed about in the prior century, (even if some of those dreams were nightmares).

The 2019 edition of EASA’s Industry Research, as presented at the 2019 EASA Convention, focuses on feedback from the end-user customer base. This research was conducted with the help of Plant Maintenance.

Learn how a fellow EASA service center interpreted different maintenance philosophies and put their own development in that curve. Their evolution has gone from workshop to predictive maintenance and beyond–to proactive maintenance, including 3D scan/print and the Internet of Things (IoT).
