Predictive Maintenance

Visual Inspection

Anomaly Detection

Context

Our client, a large energy plant operator, faced recurring issues with maintenance toolkit management. Technicians often worked under tight schedules, and manual verification of large toolkits was time-consuming and prone to errors. Missing tools created safety risks, compliance challenges, and operational delays, and plant managers struggled to ensure accountability while keeping maintenance on schedule.

Challenge

Manual inspections were not only labor-intensive but also inconsistent. Even when tools were misplaced or missing, there was no immediate way to detect the issue, which sometimes led to delays in maintenance tasks, safety risks, and regulatory compliance gaps. The client needed a solution that could automate verification, provide real-time alerts, and ensure full traceability without slowing down operations.

Assignment

navio VISION was tasked to automate the verification of maintenance toolkits. The goal was to provide immediate confirmation of tool presence, flag missing or misplaced items, and maintain complete digital records for traceability and compliance.

Solution

navio VISION was integrated into the client’s maintenance workflow with high-resolution cameras capturing each toolkit layer. AI-powered models analyze the images in real time, comparing them to reference datasets. When tools are missing or misplaced, operators receive instant alerts, enabling corrective action before the toolkit is cleared for reuse. During implementation, navio VISION was iteratively trained with the client’s actual toolkits, allowing the system to adapt to variations in tool arrangement and rare exceptions. This collaborative approach ensured that the solution fit seamlessly into their daily maintenance processes while maximizing accuracy.

By implementing navio VISION, our client achieved 100% tool accountability, enhanced safety, and improved compliance with plant regulations. The system reduced manual inspection time by 60%, minimized downtime by 40%, and provided instant alerts for missing tools, allowing maintenance teams to focus on critical tasks with confidence. navio VISION continues to evolve with the client, ensuring their tool management processes remain efficient, reliable, and fully auditable.
