We already use ABB motors. Why not use ABB Smart Sensor?
DHMSCare fits when you want one system for motors, pumps, fans, compressors and gearboxes of every brand; ABB Smart Sensor is worth evaluating if you only need to monitor ABB motors and pumps. The right choice depends on how much of your plant you want under one view.
Where ABB Smart Sensor fits
ABB Smart Sensor is condition monitoring attached to ABB's own motors and pumps. Its cloud interface works while a subscription is active. If your plant runs mostly ABB motors and you only want to watch those, it is a natural option to look at.
Where one system for every brand helps
Most plants run a mix: motors from several makers, plus gearboxes, fans, blowers, pumps, compressors and ball mills. DHMSCare covers all of these. Its sensors mount with adhesive, a mounting block or, on the DS400 and DS420, a magnet, so the brand of the machine makes no difference.
One platform then shows every machine in the same way. The same alert levels, the same reports and the same AI agent apply across the plant, so your team learns one tool instead of several.
What daily use looks like
DHMSCare learns what normal looks like on each machine and grades change against that. When a change keeps growing, Mina, the industrial AI agent, explains the likely fault and the next step. Across real deployments, 90%+ of DHMSCare alerts prove accurate, and the AI diagnosis of the fault is accurate in 85%+ of cases.
Fitting the sensors takes no downtime, and self-serve deployment takes 90 seconds. There is no implementation fee.
Next step
Read the fact comparison on our alternatives page and see which machines DHMSCare covers by industry. The power plant case shows what an early catch is worth: the plant reported 65% fewer unplanned shutdowns.
Questions buyers also ask
Can DHMSCare sensors go on ABB motors?
Yes. DHMSCare sensors mount near the bearing seat of any make of motor, without changing the machine.
Do we need one sensor per machine?
Plans start from one sensor per machine. A machine with several measuring points, such as a motor driving a gearbox, takes one sensor per point.
Can we start with only part of the plant?
Yes. You can begin with one production line of ten sensors and one gateway, then add lines as the results come in.
