Rockwell Automation has launched a service that combines technology and predictive maintenance to allow industries to schedule equipment downtime and avoid emergency equipment failures. Using its FactoryTalk Analytics and machine learning technology, Rockwell can now predict potential problems. The company says it is able to identify the most likely cause of an outage by analyzing data from sensors in factories around the world. Rockwell says its technology will be crucial to industries like oil and gas and continuous manufacturing operations. Using this service provides customers the ability to monitor predictions and analyze details of an alert without needing to build their own data models or engineer their own solution. Also, equipment manufacturers could use the system to improve performance.
