Problem
Traditional oil analysis methods for lubricated machinery are limited by infrequent data collection and the turnaround time required for off-site laboratory analysis. This can delay the detection of equipment deterioration, leading to unexpected downtime and increased maintenance costs.
Solution
RAB Microfluidics provides real-time oil analysis using patented microfluidic technology and AI, enabling early detection of equipment deterioration. Their lab-on-a-chip technology delivers laboratory-quality data directly from the equipment, providing actionable insights for asset condition management. This automated approach complements existing condition monitoring technologies, facilitating a transition to condition-based and predictive maintenance strategies.
Target Audience
The primary customers are businesses that rely on lubricated machinery, such as those in the marine, industrial, and energy sectors, who seek to minimize equipment failure and operational costs.
