Condition monitoring

Okay, kiddo. So, you know how sometimes you get sick and your mom or dad takes your temperature to make sure you're not too hot or too cold? Well, that's kind of like what condition monitoring is but for machines and equipment instead of people.

See, machines and equipment also can get sick, or not work as well as they should. So, companies use condition monitoring to check on them and make sure they're running smoothly. They do this by checking things like the temperature, vibration, and sound of the machines.

Now, imagine you have a toy car that you love to play with. If it starts shaking or making weird noises, you'd know something is wrong with it. The same goes for machines. By monitoring these things, we can catch problems early on and fix them before they get worse or cause a big accident.

So, condition monitoring helps companies save money by preventing big, expensive breakdowns and keeping their machines running smoothly. It's like getting a check-up at the doctor's office but for machines!
