Want safer, more reliable operations? Read the whitepaper and explore 5 predictive maintenance methods that cut downtime and reduce safety risks.

Rotating equipment keeps industrial operations up and running but it also introduces significant safety risks, putting both people and production at risk.

Mechanical safety programs focus on three key objectives:

  • Work from a safer distance — reduce the number of entries and exits near rotating parts.
  • Prevent hazardous conditions — take faulty machinery offline before incidents occur.
  • Maintain safely and compliantly — use the right tools to protect your team and prove compliance.

Predictive maintenance, powered by condition monitoring, supports all three objectives. It gives teams actionable insights to spot faults early, minimize time near running machines, and maintain a safer, more reliable operation.
