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.

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). 

This presentation addresses how technology and digitization are changing our understanding of value and the impact on technical service markets and businesses. It also gives pointers on how companies, particularly medium and smaller firms, can prepare for the (near) future.

Presented at the 2018 EASA Convention in Milwaukee, WI, this presentation takes a deeper look into the data from EASA's latest industry research project.

What is the Industrial Internet of Things, what growth stage is it in, and how might it impact the repair industry?

Over the past 15 years, EASA has conducted periodic research that has focused on many of the stakeholders and participants in the electromechanical repair, service and sales industry.  In early 2017, Indian River Consulting Group once again conducted research surveys of EASA repair firms. The results of those surveys show you the perspectives of fellow EASA members on a range of important subjects as well as the latest trends as well as perspectives from other industrial and distribution sectors. This research can help you to benchmark your company's results and strategies.
