A machine part number of an industrial machine is scanned when the machine enters a facility for maintenance. The scanned number is associated with components that comprise the machine and with characteristics of the components or machine. Based upon the characteristics of the machine or components, a customized maintenance route is produced for the machine through the facility. The customized maintenance route specifies a sequence of maintenance actions and timing of these actions for the machine that are adjusted in real-time as the characteristics change.

An information processing device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a first acquirer configured to acquire measured data of a sensor, a second acquirer configured to acquire characteristic data of the sensor, the characteristic data having been acquired by maintaining the sensor, and a generator configured to generate teacher data in which the acquired characteristic data is associated as label information with the acquired measured data.

A system for monitoring maintenance for manufacturing apparatuses in a facility is provided. The system includes at least one manufacturing apparatus, the manufacturing apparatus including an RF identification tag and a module, and a control system. The control system is configured to receive, from the module, operational status information that indicates time periods during which the manufacturing apparatus is in operation, determine a cumulative time duration of operation for the manufacturing apparatus, retrieve a predetermined maintenance interval for the manufacturing apparatus, determine whether the cumulative time duration of operation exceeds the predetermined maintenance interval, and in response to a determination that the cumulative time duration of operation exceeds the predetermined maintenance interval, i) output a signal that causes the manufacturing apparatus to discontinue operation, and ii) cause instructions for completing a required maintenance procedure to be displayed on a display device in communication with the control system.

A robot system and a maintenance method, capable of easily managing maintenance information and/or predicting a failure, with respect to each module constituting a robot. The robot system includes a plurality of robots each having an arm configured as an exchangeable module. The robot system also includes: a robot information storing section configured to store robot information including at least one of an operational status, failure prediction information, failure diagnosis information and maintenance history information of each module; a reading section configured to read a unique identifiable information of the module; a robot information referring section configured to refer to the stored robot information with respect to the module corresponding to the read unique identifiable information; and a robot information outputting section configured to output the robot information with respect to each module of the robot.

A method for maintaining, commissioning and checking systems in warehouses, where a service technician has sight of the system in question and, by way of a mobile computer, makes wireless contact with the controller of the system in order to take control thereof, where taking control by the mobile computer is permitted by a central controller only if the service technician can have sight contact with the corresponding system, for which purpose localization services of a local radio network are used for the determination of the position and/or of the orientation of the mobile computer of the service technician.

A production control method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: acquiring a first quantity of materials to be treated that correspond to a first process device, wherein said materials are target materials which have entered the first process device but have not entered a second process device, and the second process device is a process device in the next procedure after the first process device; on the basis of the current process state of the second process device, predicting a second quantity of target materials which can be treated by the second process device during a preset process duration corresponding to the first process device, wherein the second process device can process a fixed quantity of target materials in each working state; controlling a feeding action of the first process device according to the first quantity and the second quantity.

A mobile panel maintenance system including a mobile panel maintenance unit having a base supported for translational motion over a surface within a panel array and a carriage movably mounted to the base to position a panel maintenance assembly in relation to a panel surface for panel maintenance.

Provided are substrate processing systems and methods of managing the same. The method may include displaying a notification for a preventive maintenance operation on a chamber, performing a maintenance operation on the chamber, performing a first optical test, and evaluating the preventive maintenance operation. The first optical test may include generating a reference plasma reaction, measuring a variation of intensity by wavelength for plasma light emitted from the reference plasma reaction, and calculating an electron density and an electron temperature from a ratio in intensity of the plasma light.

A multi-platform industrial search system facilitates indexing and searching of plant-wide data residing on multiple different data platforms. The industrial search system automatically inventories industrial devices and other data sources located throughout a plant, and identifies available data items on each data source. The search system indexes the discovered data items in a federated data model that can subsequently be searched to locate data items or tags of interest. The federated data model records references to data items found on different types of data sources, including but not limited to industrial controller programs, human-machine interface applications, data historians, device documentation stores, inventory tracking systems, and other such data sources. The search system can also initiate automated searches of the federated data model in response to detected performance issues and deliver notifications and contextual information to plant personnel.

The condition of a technical installation is automatically monitored. A measured value of at least one component of the installation is sensed by at least one sensor device on the installation, and the at least one measured value is used, in a data processing arrangement specific to the installation, for determining a current operating state of the installation. By way of the data processing arrangement, including component-specific aging functions, a future chronological course of the operating condition is determined from the current operating condition, and a maintenance interval for the installation is adjusted on the basis of the future chronological course of the operating condition, in order to determine a next maintenance date of the installation. A corresponding arrangement and a computer program product for condition monitoring are also described.
