CONDITION MONITORING
Condition monitoring is the process of monitoring equipment parameters such that a significant change is indicative of a developing failure. It is a major component of predictive maintenance. The use of conditional monitoring allows maintenance to be scheduled, or other actions taken to avoid the consequences of failure, before the failure occurs.
Measurements are required of physical quantities: temperature, pressure, flow, speed, displacement, according to the plant item. Absolute accuracy is rarely necessary, but repeatable data is needed.
Service predictions are made by performance analysis, where the physical efficiency, performance or condition is found by comparing actual parameters against an ideal model. Such parameters provide an overall health index where deterioration is typically the cause of difference in the readings.
In some cases, it is possible to calculate the optimum time for equipment overhaul to restore degraded performance.
Condition monitoring is a proven solution that could save your site millions of dollars per year.
PROCESS IMPROVEMENT
Automation IT is able to install software systems which are able to identify, analyse and improve various processes within your organisation. This process enables our clients to increase efficiency, reduce downtime and ultimately increase profitability of their assets.
This outcome can be achieved in multiple ways including identifying bottlenecks, analysing production downtime causes, calculating key performance indicators and reporting the relevant information in a clear and concise format to the appropriate people allowing them to make the correct decisions at the right time.
Automation IT is able to improve standard processes of companies in all industries including:

SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENT CHANGE MANAGEMENT
By implementing a change management system it is possible to create a single portal where everyone is able to view all of the information from one secure location. In addition to consolidating data it is also possible to control all modifications made to the information, maintain a full audit trail of historical changes, compare versions of files, create backups of all historical changes and set different user privileges, allowing users to only view and change the files that are relevant to them.

TRAINING SERVICES
Training is often an area that is overlooked by engineering firms and as a result the needs of end users to understand their newly implemented control system are neglected. Automation IT recognises this fact and has tailored a series of training courses to ensure that Automation IT customers always have access to specialised training should it be required.
An experienced instructor is provided to guide the student using demonstrations and hands on lab exercises so they are prepared to develop control solutions.
Modules can be scheduled as required but students should have a working knowledge of PLC's, industrial electronics and be computer literate before completing a Module.
Training courses are available for most major brands of PLC and SCADA software and hardware and can be categorised as follows:

Our courses can also be tailor made to suit the level of personnel and the type of equipment used. Contact us for more information.
