The Task
Fuchs Lubricants, the world’s largest independent lubricant manufacturer, services over 100,000 customers. They have used PowTechnology’s IIoT kit in various applications. One customer manufactures diesel propulsion systems. It was crucial they understood lubricant usage patterns and that they never ran out of essential hydraulic & compressor oils.
The Solution
PowTechnology’s remote monitoring solution uses Metron telemetry kit to give regular data and low level alerts to Fuchs and their customer, via our MetronView cloud, eliminating run-outs and improving management understanding of how & when lubricant is consumed.
The Result
PowTechnology’s remote monitoring kit now eliminates unplanned stoppages due to run outs and has helped identify poor production practice and maintenance issues. Fuchs have retained an important customer by using technology to add value to their service and differentiate themselves.
