Cement plants rely on large, high‑value machines operating under extreme conditions. Keeping these assets reliable while controlling maintenance cost, efficiency losses, and unplanned downtime is becoming increasingly challenging. At the same time, competition is intensifying and investments in decarbonization and digital transformation are accelerating. In this webinar, we show how Online Reliability Services (ORS) and Condition Monitoring Systems (CMS) help us move from reactive maintenance to data‑driven decisions that improve availability, reduce life‑cycle cost, and protect critical cement equipment.

Improving asset health is not only about spares, shortening overhaul intervals, or maintenance manpower. Instead, we focus on understanding machine health in near real time by implementing online condition monitoring. This is delivered as a global, networked service combining Fuller Technologies’ machine and process expertise with B&K Vibro’s condition monitoring technology.

This webinar outlines loss prevention by addressing key failure risks across critical cement equipment, including kilns, crushers, fans, coolers, ball mills, and vertical mills, as well as the impact of unplanned failures. It then shows how a plant‑wide monitoring solution enables advanced fault detection and diagnostics, supported by a service that optimizes performance and reliability. The webinar also highlights the global expert support model behind the solution and shares its proven track record, already benefiting plants worldwide.

Learning Takeaways:

1. Life‑cycle costs of cement machinery are high and must be reduced as competition increases and investments in decarbonization, digitalization, and new technologies accelerate, this is a key driver for Online Reliability Services (ORS)
2. Reliable fault detection and diagnostics for kilns and other critical cement machines remain challenging; Condition Monitoring Systems (CMS) that correlate process conditions with vibration and other condition data are essential
3. ORS using cloud‑based CMS strengthens the maintenance team by adding expert diagnostics and actionable insights, enabling us to work more effectively and focus on the right maintenance actions
4. Typical results and insights delivered by ORS using CMS combine machine, process, and condition monitoring expertise to deliver actionable recommendations for preventive and corrective maintenance, proven in real cement plant applications worldwide.
5. How the combination of machine, process, and condition monitoring expertise is fundamental to the success of ORS and CMS.
