A predictive maintenance playbook that starts with one motor.
Do not instrument the whole line. Instrument the motor that already costs you a Sunday.
The plants that succeed start with a single bad actor — a pump, a gearbox, a compressor — and a maintenance lead who will look at the graph.
We bolt on vibration and temperature, stream for two maintenance cycles, and only then talk about a line-wide roll-out. The business case writes itself or it does not.
Sensoverse condition nodes are designed for that first motor: magnetic mount, 4–20 mA in, MQTT out, no PLC project required.
