The PDX platform is an end-to-end predictive analytics solution that monitors critical assets by collecting and analyzing big data, with the goal of reducing unplanned downtime, increasing productivity and improving product quality.
Factory Sentinel for Industrial Robots, powered by the Predictronics PDX Platform, is an off-the-shelf data visualization and analysis application to manage and monitor the condition of industrial robots.
The first step to harnessing the full power of an industrial process is collecting data. PDX DAQ is a software application that allows users to synchronize data collection from multiple sources for any given period of time. The result is an intentional and effective data acquisition approach, which only yields the necessary information for analysis and producing real-time, impactful results.
Don’t have a data collection strategy in place yet? Our team of experienced automation engineers and data scientists can help with the right data acquisition plan for your company’s needs.
Simply collecting data is not enough – further analysis is needed to draw useful meaning from it. PDX Sandbox is a software for developing custom applications, analyzing data and predicting impending failures.
Built upon extensive domain knowledge and equipped with algorithms that facilitate model-building, PDX Sandbox is a deployable, scalable and intelligent solution that enables users to analyze data without having to become an expert. Predictronics can provide training, pre-configured models and tutorials to get users started on creating and customizing solutions.
Accessible, understandable and actionable information enables proactive decision making. PDX Deploy is an intuitive data visualization application that manages and monitors critical assets, issues detailed reports, maps degradation trends and predicts potential failures to achieve worry-free uptime.
Already have an asset management system in place? Customers can still harness the power of PDX Deploy’s unique functions through an API that is compatible with most data analysis platforms.

MANUFACTURING
The modern world relies on the manufacturing industry to provide the products and materials it needs. Therefore, when a machine unexpectedly fails or malfunctions during production it can result in costly unplanned downtime. From labor and repair costs to scrap, even the slightest halt to productivity can immediately translate into astronomical monetary losses.
By using Predictronics’ predictive analytics solutions, manufacturers can put an end to production line bottlenecks, sudden machine failures, unnecessary repairs and waste, achieving improved product quality, optimal machine performance, extended maintenance windows and worry-free uptime.
TRANSPORTATION
The mobility of people, goods and services drives world economy, making the reliability of transportation assets crucial to modern society. Cars, planes, ships and trains often work under conditions that impact performance and experience unexpected failures that result in downtime. For that reason, ensuring asset reliability and therefore fleet availability is essential to achieving uptime.
By using Predictronics’ predictive analytics solutions, designers, manufacturers and end-users can determine issues impacting productivity, performance and energy consumption, among other critical factors. This knowledge allows stakeholders to ensure fleet availability, improve designs, extend maintenance windows and increase overall safety.
ENERGY
As global energy demands continue to grow, providers must ensure power is being generated efficiently. Whereas it is the oil, gas, nuclear, solar, wind or coal industry, power generation and transmission assets must operate at optimal condition to make the most energy available to consumers.
By using Predictronics’ predictive analytics solutions, energy providers can compare actual and optimal power generation assessments, guarantee asset health and prepare for major overhauls. This allows energy providers to not only achieve worry-free uptime, but to consistently meet energy demands.
INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT
Industrial equipment reliability is crucial to any business, bust especially those in construction, mining and agriculture. Thus, having industrial equipment such as tractors and excavators available and performing to their fullest ability should not be an unfounded expectation, but fact guaranteed.
By using Predictronics’ predictive analytics solutions, companies can optimize the availability of their industrial equipment to ensure a logistically effective process, prevent sudden asset failures, relate operating conditions to reliability and extend maintenance windows. In doing so, companies certify that no time is being wasted on unexpected events that put a halt to productivity.
