Savings for aerospace company

Published:  25 August, 2021

Condition based monitoring is a proactive maintenance health check for all types of electromechanical equipment and is crucial for identifying underlying system performance issues without the need to stop production.

The cost to purchase a new machine would have far exceeded £100,000 and led to a loss of production.

Leonardo carried out the bearing change and have confirmed that the machine runs perfectly.
