Machine Health Monitoring with IoT Sensors and Digital Twins

Low cost sensors and cloud dashboards are making continuous machine health monitoring realistic for African plants that could never justify traditional systems. This programme introduces maintenance teams to industrial IoT and digital twin concepts for monitoring equipment condition. Delegates learn what to measure, how to deploy sensors sensibly and how to turn continuous data into early warnings and better maintenance decisions.

What you will be able to do

  • Explain how industrial IoT and digital twins support machine health monitoring.
  • Select parameters and sensors appropriate to different asset types.
  • Plan sensible sensor placement, connectivity and data collection.
  • Interpret dashboards, alarms and trends to detect developing faults.
  • Integrate continuous monitoring with existing maintenance planning.
  • Assess the practical benefits and limits of connected monitoring.
