02

Cement

Critical assets: Rotary kilns, raw & cement mills, ID/FD fans, crushers, separators

Prescriptive maintenance protects clinker output and cuts specific heat and power.

03

Metals & Mining

Critical assets: Crushers, ball & SAG mills, conveyors, pumps, smelter fans, gearboxes

Comminution and smelting assets are capital-intensive and unforgiving of unplanned stops.

Proof: Ma'aden Reliability CoE; Vedanta / HZL $700k+ saved.

04

Tyres & Rubber

Critical assets: Curing presses, mixers (Banbury), extruders, calenders, pumps, motors

Process-induced and mechanical faults both cut throughput and scrap green tyres.

Proof: CEAT: 5,582 TPH saved at Halol across 6 plants.

05

Paper & Pulp

Critical assets: Dryer cylinders, recovery boilers, refiners, fans, pumps, rolls

Dryer and recovery-boiler reliability is the difference between a running machine and a scrapped reel.

Proof: Deep recovery-boiler and paper-mill expertise in the PlantOS reliability CoE.

06

Chemicals & Fertiliser

Critical assets: Compressors, pumps, agitators, blowers, reactors, turbines

Continuous process plants need mechanical and process-induced fault detection in one loop.

Proof: Coromandel: 27 plants, 940 breakdowns avoided; fertiliser downtime cut 700+ hours.

07

Food & Beverage

Critical assets: Pumps, homogenisers, compressors, fans, packaging drives, motors

Hygiene-critical, high-uptime lines where a bearing or lubrication fault stops production.

Proof: Mondelez: prescriptive AI to cut maintenance cost and extend equipment life.

08

Power & Energy

Critical assets: Turbines, generators, transformers, boiler-feed pumps, fans, switchgear

Rotating and static asset health, energy-loss and thermal-drift detection across generation and distribution.

Proof: Utility-tuned models for pumps, motors, transformers and feeders.

09

Oil & Gas

Critical assets: Compressors, pumps, turbines, heat exchangers, motors, gearboxes

Rotating-equipment reliability and process efficiency across upstream, midstream and downstream.

Proof: Prescriptive intelligence for compressors, pumps and turbines on continuous duty.

Cost of failure

What downtime costs, by industry and asset

The higher the value at risk per hour, the faster prescriptive maintenance pays for itself.

Steel · Blast Furnace
$1.2M / hr

Production value at risk for every hour of unplanned outage.

Rotating + process · Steel
Steel · Continuous Caster
$1.0M / hr

Caster stoppages cascade across the whole melt shop.

Rotating · Steel
Paper · Dryer Cylinders
$150k / hr

Dryer-section failures halt the machine and scrap the reel.

Rotating · Paper & pulp
Cement · Rotary Kiln
$100k / hr

Kiln trips lose clinker and burn energy on restart.

Rotating · Cement
Mining · Crusher / Ball Mill
$100k / hr

Comminution downtime starves the entire downstream circuit.

Rotating · Mining
Tyres · Curing Press
$50k+ / hr

Press outages stall curing and back up green-tyre inventory.

Process · Tyres

Questions, answered

Infinite Uptime Industries — frequently asked questions

Steel, cement, metals & mining, tyres & rubber, paper & pulp, chemicals & fertiliser, food & beverage, power & energy and oil & gas — the heavy and process industries that run critical rotating equipment on continuous duty.

The mechanical failure modes — bearing wear, misalignment, imbalance, lubrication loss — are common physics, but the assets, duty cycles and process-induced faults differ by sector. PlantOS uses industry-tuned AI models plus specialist reliability engineers for each vertical, from rotary kilns to recovery boilers to curing presses.

Yes. PlantOS integrates mechanical (equipment) and process intelligence in one loop, so it catches both a failing bearing and a process-induced efficiency or yield problem — and prescribes action for both.

Cement, steel, metals & mining, chemicals & fertiliser, and power & utilities are especially active across the GCC, alongside oil & gas — all sectors where Matchpoint can deploy PlantOS locally.

For steelmakers it means monitoring blast furnaces, continuous casters, rolling-mill drives, fans, blowers and gearboxes, where downtime can cost over USD 1M per hour. PlantOS™ delivered a +2.5% mill-utilisation increase across JSW Steel’s 139 plants.

It targets rotary kilns, raw and cement mills, ID/FD fans, crushers and separators, protecting clinker output and cutting specific heat and power. Star Cement saved USD 536,000 a year and SPCC preserved 27,814 tonnes of production in 120 days with PlantOS™.

It covers crushers, SAG and ball mills, conveyors, pumps, smelter fans and gearboxes — capital-intensive assets where a stop starves the whole circuit. Ma'aden runs a group Reliability CoE and Vedanta / Hindustan Zinc saved USD 700,000+ with PlantOS™.

Continuous process plants need both mechanical and process-induced fault detection on compressors, pumps, agitators, blowers and turbines. Coromandel International avoided 940 breakdowns across 27 plants and eliminated 700+ hours of downtime in fertiliser manufacturing.

It focuses on dryer cylinders, recovery boilers, refiners, fans and pumps, where a dryer failure (about USD 150,000 per hour) scraps the reel. PlantOS™ carries deep recovery-boiler and paper-mill reliability expertise.

It monitors curing presses, Banbury mixers, extruders, calenders, pumps and motors for mechanical and process faults that cut throughput or scrap green tyres. CEAT saved 5,582 TPH at its Halol plant across 6 plants and 51 areas.

It covers turbines, generators, transformers, boiler-feed pumps, fans and switchgear, detecting rotating and static-asset faults, energy loss and thermal drift across generation and distribution using utility-tuned AI models.

It targets compressors, pumps, turbines, heat exchangers, motors and gearboxes on continuous duty across upstream, midstream and downstream, combining rotating-equipment reliability with process-efficiency intelligence.

Start with the assets whose failure has the highest cost and the least redundancy — typically blast furnaces and casters in steel, rotary kilns and mills in cement, crushers and mills in mining, and main compressors and boiler-feed pumps in process plants. A PlantOS™ pilot targets these first for fast payback.
