Predictive maintenance means predictive maintenance. With this approach, machines and systems are maintained proactively. In the best case, malfunctions or failures are predicted before they occur. The aim of the principle is to minimize downtime, avoid wear-and-tear material costs and extend the service life of plant and machinery. Predictive maintenance is based on the evaluation of real-time data. Only with an appropriate database can changes, trends and developments be predicted by algorithms or by the use of AI.In building operations, the use of a digital twin in particular can be the cornerstone for automated processes and thus also for predictive maintenance. By avoiding malfunctions and failures, the comfort for users increases considerably. Building operators have the opportunity to make operations more efficient, save operating costs and increase energy efficiency.
