The automotive industry in India is the fourth-largest by production in the world, as per 2022 statistics by OICA. Considering the market's significant position, efficiency and reliability are essential for not just keeping a competitive edge and satisfying consumer demands but also avoiding the hefty expenses caused by inadequate maintenance. Robotic arms, conveyor systems, welding machines, and CNC machines are some of the critical components of the automotive manufacturing industry and malfunctioning issues with them can lead to costly disruptions and compromised productivity. 

• Robotic arms are crucial in facilitating accurate assembly and production processes. However, motor temperature, joint position, and end effector force are critical parameters that can impede operations if not monitored precisely, causing delays and quality issues.
• Speed, vibration, material alignment, and energy consumption are some parameters that, if not monitored precisely, can hinder the seamless asset movements the conveyor systems provide. 
• Welding machines, another essential part of the manufacturing industry, are susceptible to defects if parameters like voltage, current, welding tool temperature, and welding speed are not surveilled, compromising structural integrity.

Addressing the challenges 

PredCo offers cutting-edge predictive maintenance solutions tailored for the automotive industry. Our system provides real-time monitoring of critical parameters, enabling early detection of potential equipment failures and performance degradation. PredCo provides:

Real-time Monitoring: Our system continuously monitors the critical parameters like speed, vibrations, energy consumption of the conveyor systems, voltage, current, temperature, speed of the welding systems and motor temperature and force of robotic arms. This ensures that any deviations or anomalies in the operation of these components are promptly detected in real-time.

Proactive Maintenance with Alerts:

‍Our system analyses historical and real-time data to identify patterns, trends, and anomalies and ensure the parameters are manageable. In cases otherwise, alerts are provided to ensure proactive maintenance.

ML Forecasts:

‍We leverage advanced machine learning models to forecast equipment health based on historical data and device performance. This enables automotive manufacturers to anticipate maintenance needs and prevent unnecessary downtime. 

Twin Monitoring:

We provide users with the state-of-the-art technology of digital twin monitoring, which allows automotive manufacturers to create virtual replicas of their physical assets. This enables holistic asset visualisation and dynamic scenario simulations, facilitating proactive decision-making and optimising asset performance.

PredCo empowers automotive manufacturers in India to achieve operational excellence and maximise productivity with its advanced predictive technology. Using our solutions, the automotive manufacturing operations can 

• Minimise operational downtime by up to 35-45% through continuous monitoring and proactive maintenance.
