Closing the Gap Between Inspection and Remediation: Reliability Maintenance Augmented by 3D Visualization

Applications / By

When it comes to mechanical, electrical and critical asset management, routine manual inspection is a critical component of every reliability maintenance strategy. However, identifying and reporting findings is only as effective as the remediation strategy. Inspection reports, maintenance histories, and design basis memorandums (DBM) stored in various data silos disassociates critical information from the physical …
