Proficy SmartSignal Shield

Predictive Diagnostics

SmartSignal Shield predictive-diagnostic software identifies impending equipment problems and avoids surprise equipment failure. The Shield solution gives you a complete understanding of the status of your equipment: what is going to fail, what is the apparent cause of the failure, and what is the priority of the impending failure.

The solution provides early and automated diagnostics to help speed resolution--so you spend less time analyzing data and more time acting on it. With the Shield solution, you focus your maintenance resources; overcome challenges of aging equipment, limited budgets, data overload, and gaps in technical expertise; and avoid unexpected shutdowns and catastrophic failures--to avoid surprise equipment failure.

The patented Shield software builds upon GE's early failure detection and provides proactive notifications containing specific diagnostic guidance and prioritizations. The software leverages the world's largest base of predictive-diagnostic intelligence and represents the shared interests of the world's largest such community. After analyzing data--from hundreds of millions of machine hours and tens of thousands of failures--GE was able to identify the fault patterns, in context of operating  behavior, that are important to the power and oil & gas industries, and incorporate them into the Shield solution.

The Shield solution covers critical assets across industries:
