PDS Idler uses failure results from visual inspections and data from third party monitoring systems to monitor conveyor idlers, rollers, frames and structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Material part numbers can be mapped to every idler position to further support planning and execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operators have a user-friendly input screen to enter failure details such as fault location, idler type and failure type using graphics and dropdowns. Failure priorities are pre-configured taking the guess work away. The data is synchronised and sent back to the database in real-time. Planners are able to easily collate material requirements for the next shutdown with part number picking lists for every conveyor. Execution teams can have detailed checklists for their work packs making it easy to tick off work completed. Reliability engineers and maintenance managers are able to produce reports showing hot spots, trouble conveyors and failure trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This provides a powerful management tool for detailed planning, execution and failure analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"563\" height=\"421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pdsglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Idler-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pdsglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Idler-1.png 563w, https:\/\/www.pdsglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Idler-1-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/www.pdsglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Idler-1-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reporting\">Relat\u00f3rios<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>O PDS Idler geriu mais de 1 milh\u00e3o de falhas de rolos desde a identifica\u00e7\u00e3o at\u00e9 \u00e0 rectifica\u00e7\u00e3o, melhorou a efici\u00eancia das paragens atrav\u00e9s de um melhor planeamento e forneceu conhecimentos valiosos sobre uma melhor sele\u00e7\u00e3o de rolos e an\u00e1lise da raiz do problema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>There are multiple built-in standard reports available to support Planners, Maintainers and Reliability Engineers.
