Abstract: AI-powered Electrical Signature Analysis (ESA) represents a significant breakthrough by using high-frequency electrical data to extract insights regarding the condition, performance, and energy efficiency of AC motors and rotating equipment. This approach offers distinct benefits, including Truly remote monitoring, High fault detection accuracy and Performance and energy efficiency insights.

A recent four-year study conducted by Samotics and partners, including Utrecht University in the Netherlands, examined the impact of ESA-based monitoring on 1,000 industrial pumps. The study found that ESA could detect most faults on motors, transmission systems, and pumps, as well as providing early fault detection in conveyor systems.

In the factory of the future, the combination of ESA technology, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), digital twins, and other advanced technologies will lead to enhanced resilience, improved performance, and greater energy efficiency at scale. Additionally, this integration will enable more flexible production processes that better cater to industrial clients' specific needs.

During this seminar, Simon Jagers, founder of Samotics, will introduce ESA technology, demonstrate its current value proposition, and outline the roadmap for its future development.
