Uncover Problems Before They Cause Shutdowns
Warning Signs Come First
Most equipment failures do not happen randomly. Motors, gearboxes, bearings, MCCs, and control systems show warning signs before they fail.
The Fermi Uptime Program helps facilities catch those warning signs early by combining monitoring equipment, predictive maintenance technology, and on-site reliability services. Instead of waiting for a breakdown during production, your team gets better information, clearer priorities, and time to act before a small issue becomes a major shutdown.
Detect Issues Early | Reduce Emergency Repairs | Keep the Plant Running
Everything Built Around Uptime
Vibration Sensors
Sensors are placed on critical rotating equipment to monitor vibration, temperature, and bi-axial movement in real time. These readings help detect early signs of bearing wear, imbalance, misalignment, overheating, and other mechanical issues.
Electrical System Monitoring
Critical electrical circuits are equipped with infrared sensors to continuously monitor thermal changes in real time. These readings help detect loose connections, insulation degradation, phase imbalance, and abnormal heat buildup
Field Tests & Reports & Improvements
We assign dedicated PDM specialists to perform in-person testing, inspections, and reports to ensure the digital data matches real-world equipment conditions. In advanced program tiers, seasoned plant maintenance professionals collaborate with your team to identify improvement opportunities and strengthen long-term reliability.
Uptime Program Process
Identification
Fermi Solutions starts with a site walkthrough to understand your plant, production process, and critical equipment. We identify the motors, gearboxes, bearings, conveyors, electrical assets, and systems that could cause downtime if they fail.
Sensing Equipment
Once the critical assets are selected, Fermi installs and configures the monitoring equipment. This may include vibration sensors, electrical monitoring devices, gateways, and software setup.
Testing and Reports
After installation, Fermi reviews alerts, trends, and asset health information to identify developing problems before they become major failures. We provide clear findings and recommendations so your team knows what needs attention and what action should be taken next.
Ongoing Support
As your plant changes, Fermi supports system updates, added assets, replacement components, and reliability improvements. The goal is to keep the monitoring system useful, accurate, and aligned with your operation over time.
