Predict equipment failures before they shut down your line

AI that analyzes sensor data, operating logs, and maintenance history to predict failures days or weeks before they happen. Replace reactive maintenance with intelligent, data-driven decisions.

See Our Approach

Unplanned downtime is costing your operation crores per year

Reactive maintenance means fixing equipment after it breaks. Scheduled maintenance means replacing parts on a fixed calendar, whether they need it or not. Both approaches are wasteful. Your equipment generates sensor data around the clock, but nobody is analyzing it for early warning signs of failure.

How Optivus builds predictive maintenance systems

We connect to your equipment sensor data, analyze patterns, and build ML models that predict failures before they happen. Your operations team gets actionable alerts: which machine, what type of failure, how urgent, and when to schedule maintenance.

01

Connect sensor data

Integrate with your existing SCADA systems, IoT sensors, PLCs, and historian databases. No new hardware required.

02

Train failure models

Build ML models on your historical failure data and sensor patterns. Identify the signatures that precede each failure type.

03

Deploy monitoring

Real-time monitoring with anomaly detection. Alerts when equipment deviates from normal operating patterns.

04

Optimize scheduling

Maintenance scheduling based on predicted remaining useful life, not fixed calendars. Maximize uptime, minimize cost.

Key capabilities

Sensor data analysis

Ingest and analyze data from vibration sensors, temperature probes, pressure gauges, current monitors, and any other sensor your equipment has.

Anomaly detection

Detect deviations from normal operating patterns that signal developing failures. Catch issues before they become visible.

Failure prediction

ML models trained on your failure history predict which equipment will fail, what type of failure, and how soon.

Remaining useful life estimation

Estimate how much useful life remains for critical components. Replace before failure, not on a fixed schedule.

SCADA/IoT integration

Connect to existing SCADA systems, PLCs, IoT platforms, and historian databases. Works with your current infrastructure.

Alerting and dashboards

Real-time dashboards showing equipment health. Configurable alerts to maintenance teams via email, SMS, or integrated systems.

Frequently asked questions

Accuracy depends on data quality and failure types. For well-instrumented equipment with good historical data, we typically achieve 80-90% detection rates with advance warning of days to weeks. Accuracy improves as the system learns from more data over time.
At minimum: sensor data (vibration, temperature, pressure, etc.) and maintenance/failure history. More data improves accuracy: operating conditions, production schedules, environmental factors. We start by auditing what data you have and designing models around it.
A focused pilot on 5-10 critical machines typically takes 4-8 weeks: 1-2 weeks for data integration, 2-3 weeks for model development and testing, 1-2 weeks for deployment and monitoring setup.
ROI comes from three sources: reduced unplanned downtime (40% reduction typical), eliminated unnecessary scheduled maintenance (30% reduction), and extended equipment life. The exact ROI depends on your downtime cost per hour and current maintenance spend.
Yes. If your legacy equipment does not have built-in sensors, we can recommend aftermarket sensors (vibration, temperature, current monitors) that retrofit to existing machines. The AI system works with any sensor data source.
