A new AI-based suite for data-driven asset performance management


Traditional time-based asset performance management approaches can lead to high costs, low output, unplanned work, high employee turnover, safety risks, environmental damage, regulatory issues, and energy waste.

Our Asset Performance Management (APM) solution monitors and optimizes the performance, reliability, and efficiency of industrial assets, such as equipment, machinery, and systems, to minimize downtime due to machine failure and achieve operational excellence. By leveraging advanced analytics and predictive algorithms, APM can provide insights into asset health, identify potential issues or failures, and even recommend proactive measure to avert unplanned downtime - thereby establishing a reliability culture.
Maintaining efficiently decreases machine downtime
30-50%
Performing maintenance only when needed reduces costs by
20-30%
Greater availability and efficiency can increase profitability by
4 to 10%

Lack of visibility across assets can increase risk exposure and potential costs

Costlier maintenance

Asset failures lead to reactive maintenance that's 4 to 10 times more expensive than planned maintenance

Unplanned downtime

Asset failures can bring production to a standstill, resulting in costly delays and lost revenue.

Environmental risks

Failing or underperforming assets can increase emissions and increase the likelihood of an incident that damages the environment.

Safety risks

Malfunctioning assets and asset failures can put workers health and lives at risk.

Condition monitoring plus prediction capabilities enable optimal performance.

Data-driven decision making can digitally transform your business by giving you a unified, current, and continuous view of asset conditions and performance across the enterprise.

Introducing ABB Ability™ Genix APM

ABB Ability™ Genix APM delivers the next generation of maintenance, reliability and performance enhanced with machine learning and artificial intelligence. High-performance computing power makes it possible to automatically monitor vibration, temperature, loading patterns and other parameters.

The comprehensive monitoring capability allows Genix to move beyond equipment condition monitoring and diagnostics to provide predictive and prescriptive analytics and optimization models, giving you role-specific, actionable insights for quick strategic and tactical decision making.

The ABB Ability™ Genix APM suite offers a layered, scalable approach that fits your customers evolving needs.
