"Exploring Predictive Maintenance with QuickML on Zoho Catalyst"
An Insight into Predictive Maintenance with QuickML
Industrial enterprises often carry out regular maintenance with the goal of avoiding equipment or machine failures. However, wouldn't it be more efficient if these businesses could predict when a machine is likely to fail, so that they could take corrective actions in a timely manner? This is where predictive maintenance comes in.
The Importance of Predictive Maintenance
Predictive maintenance (PdM) allows enterprises to anticipate equipment failures and carry out necessary maintenance, thereby reducing downtime and maintenance costs. It involves the use of machine learning algorithms and data analysis techniques to predict future outcomes based on historical data.
How Does QuickML Aid in Predictive Maintenance?
QuickML, an offering by ZOHO, offers a no-code AI platform that makes it possible to implement PdM in an easy and convenient manner. This platform has made it extremely quick and efficient to setup machine learning models capable of predicting machine failures or breakdowns in industrial settings.
Simple time-series forecasting methods can usually anticipate failures in the near future, but they often miss out on long-term trends, and don't take into consideration the different external factors that affect machine performance. QuickML, on the other hand, takes into account both short term and long term trends, along with all the relevant external variables. This results in more accurate predictions, that can significantly help in lowering business costs.
How does it work?
Implementing PdM with QuickML begins with gathering data from multiple sources, such as sensors embedded in the machines, workflow management software, and external weather data. The platform then preprocesses this data, making it suitable for predictive modeling.
Next, the platform uses machine learning algorithms to create a model based on this data. This model is then tested and validated, to ensure its accuracy and reliability.
Finally, the model is used to predict future outcomes. It enables the ability to predict which parts might fail, and when they might do so. Thus, it allows businesses to proactively plan their maintenance efforts, resulting in lesser downtime, more efficient use of resources, and higher overall efficiency.
