Can I pilot predictive maintenance on one production line first, and what should success look like?
Yes. The DHMSCare starting package is one production line with ten sensors and one gateway. A pilot succeeds when alerts are confirmed: the machine is opened and repaired, and the fault matches the diagnosis. DHMSCare alerts are accurate in 90%+ of cases, confirmed after teardown, which is the most direct measure of a pilot.
Set up the pilot
Pick one production line with machines whose stop you feel: critical motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes or compressors. The DHMSCare starting package is ten sensors and one gateway on that line.
Your own team can install it without stopping production, and self-serve deployment takes 90 seconds. Agree before you start who receives alerts and who signs off a repair.
Choose a line where faults have happened before. Machines with a history give your team a fair chance to see an alert confirmed during the pilot.
What success should look like
The strongest proof is a confirmed alert: the machine is opened, and the fault matches the diagnosis. DHMSCare alerts are accurate in 90%+ of cases, confirmed after teardown.
Also track the alerts your team acted on, the repairs moved into planned stops and how quickly people responded. These numbers carry the case for the next line.
After the pilot
If the results hold, extend line by line on the same template. One gateway connects up to 60 sensors, so the next machines may join the gateway you already have.
A standard production line typically takes about 30–40 sensors, and each industry page lists the measuring points per machine to plan the next step.
Questions buyers also ask
Do we get diagnosis during the pilot?
Yes. DHMSCare gives its first diagnostic verdicts on the day the sensors are installed, and AI fault diagnosis is included in the AI Care and AI Care Plus plans.
What if no fault appears during the pilot?
That is a normal outcome on a healthy line. The pilot still shows each machine's baseline, how alerts reach your team and how the platform fits your routine.
Is there an implementation fee for the pilot?
No. DHMSCare charges no implementation fee, and the pilot needs no local server. You pay per sensor per year plus hardware.
