Downtime Prevention for Manufacturing
Real-time equipment health monitoring mapped to your production floor. Catch spindle wear, motor stress, and cooling failures before they stop your line.
The Problem
Where Things Break Down
CNC clusters fail without warning
Spindle vibration, coolant temperature, and axis position data all live in separate PLC registers. By the time someone correlates them, the machine is already down.
Downstream stations starve
When one machine goes down, the cascading effect hits assembly, testing, and packaging. One unplanned stop can disrupt half your production floor.
Maintenance schedules are based on calendar, not condition
You replace bearings every 6 months whether they need it or not. Meanwhile, a motor running hot gets overlooked because it is not on the schedule yet.
Our Approach
What Sandhed Does Differently
Sandhed connects to your existing PLCs and sensors via OPC UA and MQTT, then maps equipment health data onto your 3D floor plan in real time. You see vibration trends, temperature drift, and cycle time anomalies as color-coded overlays on actual machine locations. When readings cross your thresholds, alerts go to the right person before the line stops.
Real-Time Equipment Health
PLC and sensor data mapped to your 3D floor plan. See machine status, vibration levels, and temperature readings as color-coded overlays on actual equipment locations.
Threshold-Based Alerts
Set warning levels for any parameter. When vibration, temperature, or cycle times drift past your limits, the right person gets notified through their preferred channel.
Trend Visualization
Historical overlays show how equipment parameters change over time. Spot gradual degradation before it reaches the failure point.
Maintenance Coordination
When an alert fires, your maintenance team sees the affected equipment highlighted on the floor plan with the relevant sensor data already pulled up.

OEE Improvement
Most manufacturers know their OEE score. Few can point to the exact machine, shift, or station dragging it down. Sandhed maps availability, performance, and quality data onto your floor plan so you can see where OEE drops and why.
