Introducing Asset Intelligence: Connect, Detect, and Act on Your Machine Data

Machines usually show warning signs before they fail. It could be a temperature creeping up, or a motor drawing more current than normal.

But catching these signals consistently, understanding which ones matter, and knowing what action to take, feels impossible to do at scale. 

That’s why we built Asset Intelligence for MaintainX.

Asset Intelligence connects your machine data, uses it to detect faults, and turns alerts into work orders that help your team prevent breakdowns.

It includes:

• OT Data Connectors that stream data from Ignition, Kepware, AVEVA CONNECT, and MQTT without heavy lift for IT.
• Anomaly Detection. Find anomalies in your OT data without defining thresholds. Watch for temperature and current anomalies on all assets, and multi-signal insights on pumps, fans, and compressors.
• Monitors built from templates that make it easy to watch for status updates, fault codes, and condition anomalies across all of your critical assets.
• Alerts that surface anomalies in your connected OT data, and recommend your next best action using AI.
• Vibration Monitoring, done for you by industry experts, that detects early wear on your rotating assets.

Together, these capabilities help you optimize your maintenance and reliability by doing the right work at the right time.

MaintainX customers have already saved upwards of $50,000 per asset on avoided failures, while also cutting their preventive maintenance costs in half.

What makes MaintainX different?

Asset Intelligence runs inside the system your team already uses to plan and execute work, so it’s not just another dashboard to look at.

Unlike traditional monitoring solutions, MaintainX doesn’t just tell you there’s a problem. It equips your team to take action by recommending next steps and creating a work order. 

Every job that’s closed out gets recorded back into the system and used for continuous learning.

Most condition monitoring and predictive maintenance solutions also focus on one signal, such as vibration. MaintainX combines OT, vibration, and your work history data to understand the full picture and limit the noise of false alarms.

By bringing anomaly detection and work execution into one platform, MaintainX is the only system that closes the loop on equipment signals and learns from the outcome of every work order.

Four Ways Asset Intelligence Puts Your Machine Data to Work

Teams like Lone Star Dairy and Hudsonville Ice Cream have already reduced downtime by connecting SCADA signals to MaintainX. 

Here are some of the ways MaintainX customers are optimizing their maintenance with Asset Intelligence.

1. Real-Time Status Monitoring

Too often, a machine goes offline or throws a fault and nobody knows until someone reports it. The response starts late, and your downtime records stay incomplete.

Asset Intelligence streams machine state and fault codes into MaintainX. This means you can log downtime as soon as an asset goes offline, respond quickly when fault codes have fired, and keep accurate records of asset availability in MaintainX.

2. Usage-Based Maintenance

A calendar-based PM doesn't know whether your machine ran all week or sat idle. With Asset Intelligence, usage data like runtime hours flows in from your OT systems and triggers a PM when a machine has earned it.

This helps you catch issues on equipment that’s been heavily used, while reducing your PM costs on equipment that doesn’t really need to be serviced yet.

3. Condition-Based Maintenance

Breakdowns often start with a temperature or current spike, but nobody’s watching these signals all day long. Asset Intelligence watches them for you, and automatically triggers alerts for you to review and turn into work orders if action is required.

You can catch problems on your critical assets and intervene before unplanned downtime occurs, without needing to know exactly what to look for.

4. Predictive Maintenance

Vibration trends help you catch wear and degradation as early as possible on rotating equipment.

MaintainX’s hardware partner and expert vibration analysts work with you to install sensors quickly, and monitor the data for you. And when warning signs are detected, they create a work order on your behalf so that you can address the issue.
