CDE SmartTech gives operators insight into their plant on their smartphone.
CDE
CDE SmartTech is a performance app that connects with plants to provide an inside look at operations and maintenance needs. Here are six ways that this app works with users, plants, and CDE experts:
- Real-time data captured by sensors on the plant is analyzed to keep track of overall health and note any trends that indicate potential issues.
- Flow rates and the tonnage of material moving through the plant are tracked and reviewed. This information can be used to optimize operations.
- Use of water, energy, and chemicals is tracked. This provides opportunities to review and adjust for more efficient operation.
- SmartTech data is analyzed by CDE process engineers who then provide details to the customer and CDE CustomCare team, enabling proactive maintenance and plant optimization.
- An interactive 3D view of the user's plant expands to provide a view of individual parts – right down to the smallest nuts and bolts. Users can identify the parts they need for a specific repair or maintenance task and order directly from the app.
- Checklists created and assigned through the app can be used to track maintenance activities. As work is completed, users can input notes and photographs, generate reports, and log any issues.
