Online wireless monitoring or handheld route checks: how do you choose?
It depends on whether you need to know what is wrong now or when it will fail. A handheld check sees only the moment it measures; DHMSCare’s sensors stay on the bearing housing, alert as soon as something changes and diagnose to the component. On a tight budget, monitor critical machines online and check the rest by hand.
What route checks miss
A handheld collector captures one instant between two rounds, and a bearing often goes from early damage to seizure in exactly that gap. DHMSCare sensors stay online and measure three-axis vibration and temperature, so a rising trend enters the alert queue at once instead of waiting for the next round.
Who does the diagnosis
Route data needs someone who can read it: spectrum analysis takes a dedicated vibration analyst. DHMSCare builds the AI agent Mina into the platform. It diagnoses to the component and recommends an action, so ordinary maintenance staff can follow it.
How the cost adds up
DHMSCare is priced by the number of machines and measuring points, and you can start with one production line. The saving is not in hardware prices but in three other costs: route-check labour, stoppages that checks miss, and a dedicated analyst.
