GEA has unveiled a new service concept called PerformancePlus that extends its service-level offering beyond routine preventive maintenance, and complements its customers’ strategic efforts towards Industry 4.0 automation.
PerformancePlus combines modern condition monitoring technologies with GEA’s industry expertise, providing customers with monitoring services, comprehensive analysis reports and reliable optimisation recommendations. In turn, users receive valuable information, which can be used to make business decisions easier and address challenges more effectively in order to achieve specific performance-related goals.
GEA PerformancePlus creates transparency about the current health status of the equipment, increases its availability, ensures optimum productivity, brings efficiency optimisation potential to light and enables sustainable equipment utilisation, according to GEA.
It added that the technology ‘enables a speedy evaluation of the opportunities and risks of changing production requirements [and as such] orders can be assessed and economically scheduled, in turn leading to higher productivity for GEA customers’.
GEA PerformancePlus will initially be available for GEA separators; on the mid-term it will be extended to other GEA product groups.
