From Detect and Diagnose to Decide: How Evolutions in Ultrasound are Driving More Effective Plant Maintenance

from Great Question: A Manufacturing Podcast · host Endeavor Business Media’s Manufacturing Group

In this episode of Great Question: A Manufacturing Podcast, Thomas Wilk, chief editor of Plant Services, is joined by Blair Fraser, the VP of technology at UE Systems to discuss how ultrasound tools are evolving. Many maintenance technicians use machine condition monitoring technologies for two related goals: detect a problem, and diagnose the root cause. However, Fraser argues that these technologies are evolving quickly to help teams achieve the next-step goal of deciding on the best corrective course of action that fits overall plant goals.
