Improve System Maintenance & Troubleshooting Efficiency & Effectiveness by Leveraging IoT Technology
Efficient and effective system maintenance and troubleshooting in manufacturing industries are crucial for ensuring uninterrupted production processes. This proposal proposes leveraging IoT (Internet of Things) technology to enhance the monitoring and management of critical system temperatures, particularly in control rooms where temperature fluctuations can impact operational stability. The proposed solution involves the integration of micro controller (Arduino) and microcomputer (Raspberry Pi) technologies combined with software engineering to create an integrated and centralized smart critical room temperature monitoring system.
In this system, nodes consisting of micro controllers and sensors are strategically deployed throughout the room to monitor temperature and humidity variations. These nodes transmit data to a central master unit (Raspberry Pi) which collects, processes, and publishes the aggregated data to a message broker. A central server then consumes the data from the message broker, processes it further, and provides real-time monitoring capabilities to users across various locations. This approach eliminates the need for manual temperature checks at individual points, enabling proactive maintenance and swift troubleshooting actions based on real-time data insights.
By implementing this IoT-based solution, manufacturing industries can significantly improve system maintenance efficiency and effectiveness, thereby enhancing operational reliability and minimizing downtime due to temperature-related issues.
