Case studies: Real solutions, real results

Discover how ML4Industry helps companies transform their machine data into actionable insights, leading to reduced downtime and significant cost savings.

Use Case: Decoding motor health using audio signals

The high cost of silence

Unexpected downtime from motor issues hits hard. Relying on subjective listening is unreliable, and deep data analysis is often slow, complex, and requires specialist tools few have readily available.

Waveform visualization of audio data

Your simple start: sample audio data

You provide sample .wav audio files from relevant motors along with basic context (conditions, IDs). ML4industry securely ingests this and initiates the analysis.

Success signal visualization

What we discovered (Rapidly)

  • Healthy motors vs. propeller faults: Successfully distinguished across multiple motors.
  • ⚠️Bearing Faults: Models failed –
  • 💡Key Features: Audio texture & pitch patterns (MFCCs/Spectral) identified.
  • 📊Readiness Score: Medium-Low (Comprehensive diagnosis requires action).
