Getting started
Training for new oil analysts is usually trial by fire. A lucky
beginner will have experienced workers around to teach
the nuances of the equipment and operating conditions.
The solo beginner can research the history of the

equipment, review prior samples and look for trends
related to oil hours or unit life in that component. This
review should include results from other units of the same
model, if available.
In addition to learning on the job, newcomers should seek

out formal oil analysis training, as well as formal training
specific to their industry and equipment. This training can
provide broader insights and key criteria to monitor.

ccording to the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics, slips and falls are the number one
cause of workplace injuries. Rubber-backed
rental mats have been the most common
approach to floor safety but are based on outdated
technology and often increase fall hazards. The solution:
New Pig’s Grippy Floor Mat – the world’s first adhesive-
backed mat.
Rental mats add a trip hazard to an existing slip
hazard because they ripple, flip over, catch in cart
wheels and jam under doors. And, because the rubber
backing doesn’t adhere to the floor, they quickly shift
out of place.
PIG® Grippy Mat is specifically designed to eliminate
trip and fall hazards. Its proprietary adhesive backing
keeps the mat in place with no shifting, bunching or
flipping over. An absorbent top layer soaks in moisture
while trapping dirt and salt – making Grippy Mat ideal
for entranceways.
In addition, Grippy Mat is extremely durable – built
to last up to three months before changeouts – and peels
up easily. The mats can be sanitized with mop or floor Figure 8: Oxidation residue. prevent allowing a lot of contamina-

ABB Ability™ Smart

Sensors: Always
know how your
equipment is feeling
The ABB Ability Smart
Sensor monitors the health of your low voltage motors, bearings, gear reducers and pumps by
gathering data on vibration, temperature and other parameters that can be used to gain meaningful
information on condition and performance, enabling users to identify inefficiencies within their
system and to reduce risks related to operation and maintenance. Maintenance can now be planned
according to actual needs rather than based on generic schedules. This extends equipment lifetime,
cuts maintenance costs, and reduces or prevents unplanned downtime due to breakdowns.
NXR Motors
Buying low and medium voltage motors has never been
easier. ABB’s N-series general purpose motors combine
cost-efficient standardized designs and short lead times
with safety, productivity, energy efficiency and reliability.
Totally enclosed fan cooled motors, type NXR, General
purpose above NEMA motors fit most applications
where a highly customized motor is not needed.

the harshest environments, ABB’s new Dodge® Safety
Mount spherical roller bearing is ideally suited for
a variety of demanding industrial applications. This
innovative solution combines the advantages you rely
on in today’s Dodge Imperial bearings with features
that improve the safety and productivity of your
operation. Keeping your employees safe is just one
advantage of the new Dodge Safety Mount spherical
roller bearing. The new mounting system reduces

Innovation and Automation:

“Essential” for the Factory of the Future!
As we continue to see manufacturing

operations needs change worldwide,
innovation and automation continue to
be the answer to many of the problems.
Throughout industry, all factories are

looking for ways to produce more
product for less or reduce operations
downtime. With the recent COVID-19
pandemic, many factories in North
America have been closed. Upon return,
they will all be rethinking not only
productivity improvement, but how
they do business and operate their
factories in the future.
Many will look for innovative products to enhance worker safety and reduce the risk of spreading future
infections within their plants. New operating guidelines will most definitely create product innovations
in personal protective equipment (PPE), but will also drive innovation in plant floor automation. While
automation is nothing new in manufacturing across all industries, it will
expand beyond the current productivity improvement rationale to include
employee infection mitigation. Automated equipment does not become
infected with a virus; it doesn’t call in sick and cannot spread infection.
While many manufacturing companies have been considered “essential”

during this pandemic and continue to produce various products needed
for basic existence, Motion Industries is also considered “essential” as
the distributor of choice. We serve over 200,000 customers in North
America, providing the latest innovative products from manufacturers of
many kinds of parts, from power transmission products to PPE, and more.
In addition, Motion’s Automation Solutions Group can assist OEM and
end-user customers with a wide variety of automation solutions.

Spreadsheets weren’t designed for
time series data analytics. Seeq is.
Time series data analysis poses unique challenges.
With Seeq®, difficult and time-consuming work in spreadsheets is a thing of the past. Seeq’s
multiple applications enable you to rapidly investigate and share insights from data stored in
multiple enterprise data historians, such as OSIsoft PI, Honeywell PHD, and GE Proficy, as well
as contextual data sources such as SQL Server, Oracle, and MySQL.
Seeq’s support for time series data and its challenges – connecting, displaying, interpolating,
cleansing, and contextualization – relieves you of hours and days of fruitlessly searching for
insights in your process manufacturing data. Seeq helps you get more value from the data that
you’ve already been collecting, and gives organizations data transparency and the ability to
execute on those insights.

Condition monitoring
For mechanical components
The ABB AbilityTM Smart Sensor for mechanical products is an easy-to-use, wireless
sensor which monitors the health of mounted bearings and gear reducers. The
sensor provides warnings when health status declines, reducing the risk of
unplanned downtime. In addition, connectivity and trend data allow maintenance to
be planned proactively instead of reactively, and remote monitoring capabilities
keep employees away from areas that are difficult or dangerous to access.
Operate safely. Reduce downtime. Improve reliability.
