Regal Rexnord Corp. launched the next-generation Perceptiv intelligent reliability and maintenance solution for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance in industrial manufacturing.
This next evolution of the Perceptiv ecosystem offers customers a unified platform to meet growing reliability needs, the company says. Customers’ individual outcomes are supported with full end-to-end solutions such as reliability consultation; solution design; full systems (hardware, software and platform); installation; monitoring; and reporting.
Perceptiv intelligence uses in-field sensors and gateways to monitor machine health. The collected data can be sent to a customer’s on-premises system through industrial protocols or to the Perceptiv web platform for online viewing. Through the web platform, Regal Rexnord reliability engineers can analyze the data to provide customers with recommendations on how to extend equipment life and reduce unplanned downtime, the company says. This new web platform will serve as the foundation for future AI and machine learning innovations for Regal Rexnord and its customers.
The next-generation Perceptiv intelligent reliability and maintenance solution is designed to build on and evolve multiple legacy Regal Rexnord condition monitoring systems to provide a single, unified architecture platform built with the latest technologies from partners such as Microsoft Azure, the company adds.
As part of the update, Perceptiv Solutions will launch a new universal gateway and corresponding wireless vibration and temperature sensor. The universal gateway will provide wired and wireless connection to many current and future sensor types. An array of compatible sensors allows for cost-optimized implementations to meet customers’ equipment needs, and multiple modes of operation provide data insights into customers’ preferred systems to provide visibility where they need it, Regal Rexnord says.
“Launching our next-generation Perceptiv platform marks a pivotal moment for Regal Rexnord and our industry,” says Robert Federer, vice president of digital solutions and Perceptiv at Regal Rexnord. “Unifying predictive maintenance capabilities across intelligent industrial powertrains within one platform and integrating data in unique ways that allow our customers to optimize plant-level KPIs efficiently and sustainably, are points of differentiation Regal Rexnord is uniquely positioned to deliver. Our purpose is to create a better tomorrow with sustainable solutions that power, transmit and control motion, and our new Perceptiv platform enables us to accelerate this goal with continued innovations and releases ahead.”
