Recent surveys indicate that global process industries lose an estimated $20 billion annually due to unscheduled downtime (equivalent to 5% of production revenue)*. This loss significantly impacts factory profitability and efficiency. In order to address this issue, many industries are reducing overall downtime impact by migrating to technologies designed specifically to maximize uptime.
The service oriented drive (SOD) approach represents a new generation of devices that are integrated with services which allow for minimal downtime. The “built in” capabilities of SOD enabled devices help manufacturers to begin their migration to future “smart” factories by connecting key devices and transmitting digitized information that allows for preventative actions in the maintenance arena.
In the short term, SODs will make reactive and preventive maintenance operations more efficient. In the longer term, data collection and analysis capabilities begin to allow predictive maintenance to become a reality. The "Service Oriented Drive" concept allows for a transition from reactive to anticipative maintenance, which is at the heart of all maintenance operation
strategies
Automobile safety evolution is comparable to the refinement that still needs to take place in the realm of VSD operational deployment
