Which Corrective maintenance use case do you want to implement?

Your use case has already been solved here. We show you how and by whom, and connect you with the people who have already implemented it.

Automatic spare parts ordering is triggered by defined threshold violations, faults or status changes. Maintenance orders and spare parts requests are created automatically and transferred via integration into ERP systems such as SAP, without manual intervention. In asset management this keeps inventories up to date; in corrective maintenance it shortens the time to repair.

Leakage Detection (Air) Sensors detect air leaks in compressed air systems and machinery. Continuous monitoring enables the localization of losses and the initiation of targeted measures. Leakage Detection (Gas) Sensors identify gas leaks in pipelines and systems. Permanent monitoring supports safe operation and reduces unplanned downtime. Leakage Detection (Water) Sensors detect water escaping from systems and pipelines. Deviations in water flow are identified early to prevent damage and downtime. In energy monitoring, leak detection makes energy waste visible; in maintenance, leaks are detected early, located and sealed in a targeted way.

Making hidden problems visible. Sensors monitor bolts and connections for wear, loosening or defects. Problems are detected before they cause greater damage: in condition monitoring and predictive maintenance there is time to retighten or replace, and in corrective maintenance defective connections are identified and replaced in a targeted way. This increases operational safety.

Detecting anomalies through sound patterns. Acoustic sensors diagnose wear and malfunctions in machines based on their sound patterns. In condition monitoring they show the machine state continuously, in predictive maintenance they make maintenance plannable, and in corrective maintenance they locate defects for targeted repairs. This reduces unplanned downtime and consequential damage.

Digital systems for tension and thrust force monitoring detect mechanical anomalies and overloads early to prevent downtime and damage. Integrated into machine controls, they enable immediate responses, protecting processes and assets. If an overload does occur, the affected components can be located and repaired in a targeted way.

Precise diagnostics through vibration analysis. Monitoring bearings or heat treatment furnaces provides early warning signals for mechanical irregularities or temperature deviations. In condition monitoring and predictive maintenance this ensures production quality and prevents damage; in corrective maintenance faulty bearings are located quickly and repaired in a targeted way.

Detect damage before it gets costly. Breaks or cable stress often occur unexpectedly – with serious consequences for production and asset availability. Break detection systems continuously monitor critical movements and report the smallest deviations in real time. In condition monitoring and predictive maintenance this enables targeted maintenance planning; in corrective maintenance repairs start without searching for the cause.

Cable and chain monitoring detects breaks, abrasion and structural changes in cables and chain links based on movement anomalies and physical measurements. Monitored parameters include tensile and compressive forces, bending radii, insulation resistance, temperature, current and vibration events. This makes maintenance plannable, and defective links or sections can be located and replaced in a targeted way.

With modern sensor technology and smart data analysis, damage can be detected before it escalates. Whether leaks in water pipes, overheating in electrical systems or mechanical wear – continuous monitoring makes problems visible early. In condition monitoring and predictive maintenance this leaves time for targeted maintenance, in corrective maintenance affected components are located quickly, and in loss prevention it protects assets and infrastructure in the long term.

Digital temperature monitoring, even for extreme conditions. In our network, IoT-based temperature measurements are implemented for steam pipes, for example – using LoRaWAN or mioty® sensors that operate maintenance-free for over 10 years. In condition monitoring and predictive maintenance the data reveals trends and anomalies early; in corrective maintenance it helps locate hotspots and repair defective components in a targeted way.

Sensor technology for gas and pollutant detection (e.g. CO₂, NOx, CH₄, VOC) monitors emissions continuously. In condition monitoring it secures operations and compliance, in energy monitoring it provides emissions data for reporting and ESG, and for employee safety it gives early warning of pollutant exposure. When gas or pollutant leaks occur, the affected components can be repaired in a targeted way.

Precise level measurement without maintenance effort. Battery-powered sensors record groundwater levels automatically – even in hard-to-reach areas. The maintenance-free technology delivers reliable data for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. When levels deviate, the cause can be located and faulty sensors or pipes repaired in a targeted way.

Humidity measurement captures ambient conditions in the form of relative humidity and its changes over defined periods. This makes it possible to monitor air conditions even in hard-to-reach or non-visible locations. In condition monitoring and predictive maintenance the data reveals trends early; in corrective maintenance it helps diagnose deviations and locate affected spots.

Benefits of Corrective maintenance

Benefits of Corrective Maintenance: Increase Efficiency, Avoid Failures

Direct Problem Resolution

Corrective maintenance enables an immediate response to faults or failures. As soon as a problem is identified, targeted measures can be taken to restore operational capability as quickly as possible. This is especially important in situations where production downtime causes significant financial losses.

Cost Efficiency at Low Risk

For assets or machines with low risk, corrective maintenance is often the most economical solution. Instead of investing resources in preventive measures, maintenance costs only arise when an actual defect occurs, avoiding unnecessary expenditure.

Flexibility and Situational Adaptability

The reactive approach allows companies to deploy maintenance resources on a needs basis. This offers high adaptability, especially in the event of unexpected occurrences, without generating unnecessary fixed costs.

Minimised Planning Effort

Without fixed maintenance intervals, the organisational effort for long-term maintenance plans is eliminated. This enables greater flexibility and a reduction in administrative burdens.
