Increase uptime and efficiency with asset health services

Comprehensive insights help you streamline performance
Our Asset Health Services cover the full flowsheet. By gathering plant data into one source of truth, you can gain a holistic view of plant performance in a digestible, visual way. Drawing on our decades of materials and process expertise, we analyse your historical and current plant operating data and discover trends that enable us to investigate your plant performance and optimization potentials and provide regular reports with recommendations for improvement.
AI and human expert support empowers you to prevent downtime
By combining 140 years of experience with the latest digital technologies and artificial intelligence tools, we at FLS can monitor our plants around the clock and detect production issues or changes to the optimum behaviour of the plant at an early stage. We alert you with early warnings to enable immediate and effective remedial action, identify the root cause of the problem and prevent consequential damage. By responding early to warning signs and emerging anomalies that could lead to various process issues, costly unplanned downtime is minimized.
Maximise uptime and improve your OPEX
Asset health Service empowers you to take control of your maintenance schedule and go beyond preventive to predictive maintenance. Our Reliability experts help you to identify when to make fundamental maintenance decisions in a proactive and joined-up way. With a historic maintenance review, inventory investigation and a close collaboration with your team, we can do a spare part forecast and develop an optimized inventory management to increase plant efficiency and profitability.
Improving safety on site
Unplanned downtime leads to rushed work being carried out under pressure, which prevents safety from being the number one priority. By using the experience we have gained over our entire installed base FLS Asset Health Services provide the correct information to manage equipment issues and allow work to be scheduled well in advance, with all safety risks duly considered.

Improved sustainability with asset health services

By preventing downtime and maximising productivity FLS Asset Health Services can reduce the overall environmental footprint per quantity of mineral delivered to market. As a key supporter of MissionZero our services enable equipment to run at the lowest total cost of ownership.

Asset Health Services allow you to predict failures at an early stage, reduce unplanned downtime and optimise maintenance schedules, use spare and wear parts more efficiently and sustainably, increase plant safety and generally reduce the impact on the environment.

Avoid energy-intensive stop and start procedures by reducing (unplanned) downtimes and optimised maintenance schedules.

Better safety by predicting and avoiding catastrophic failures

Reduced energy consumption
By detecting issues such as misalignment and bearing failures at an early stage, condition monitoring helps for well planned maintenance activities, machine operation at optimum performance and reduces overall energy consumption. Well-maintained mining equipment is more efficiently and consume less energy.
Longer equipment life
The environmental footprint can be significantly reduced by extending the life of equipment through continuous monitoring and timely maintenance. This reduces the disposal of equipment to a minimum and requires fewer new raw materials.
Optimum condition
Furthermore, by maintaining equipment in optimum condition, the occurrence of leaks, spills and other forms of waste can be reduced, contributing to cleaner and safer operations.
Reliability
Reliability services and spare parts forecasting and optimized inventory management improved / reduced required storage.

Frequently asked questions

FAQs for asset health solutions

In mining, an asset is a piece of machinery or heavy equipment, like a crusher. Asset health therefore refers to the health of the machinery – e.g. equipment lifetime and usage, mean time between maintenance outages, performance vs expectations, etc.

Asset condition monitoring refers to the use of sensors and the aggregation of high frequency condition data to track and trend asset health. Condition monitoring typically focuses in on specific indicators, such as bearing alignment or vibration, which can signal a greater problem.

Condition monitoring is the capture and analysis of operating and condition data with the aim of perceiving trends in time to take predictive maintenance action.

Specific defined sensors will be installed at all sensitive parts of the different equipments, e.g. vibration accelerometers at motor, speed sensors, ultrasound sensors at bearings, temperature sensors, pressure sensors at lubrication, torque measurement, displacement sensors, etc.
