Simple and robust, the SKF QuickCollect handheld sensor monitors for a wide range of issues relating to vibration and temperature. The sensor transmits data wirelessly to an app on a mobile device, providing instant machine diagnostics and the ability to store and share data for further analysis.
The SKF QuickCollect app offers entry level, on-the-spot analysis capability. Upgrading to the SKF DataCollect app provides extended diagnostic capabilities, customised forms for collecting all types of inspection and process data, as well as the ability to connect with SKF expert remote services.

The SKF DataCollect app also provides customised forms to collect a wide range of useful data from around the customer’s facility. In addition to machine monitoring, operations staff can perform visual inspections guided by instructions, and record information such as pressures, lows, lubrication levels, etc. Instructions can be provided for operators to clean and inspect equipment, and to tell them when and how to seek help when needed.
This kind of inspection data can be invaluable to complement customers’ maintenance programmes, and can also be used to automate support for activities such as plant safety and EHS audits, environmental/quality/air leak inspections, equipment checks, and lubrication rounds.
