Case Study: Olympus
As a inspection technology manufacturer, we are implementing IoT connected devices and cloud computing in all stages of our production, service and customer experience
NDTMA 2017 Annual Conference
Golden Nugget Hotel, Las Vegas, NV February 14-16, 2017
Case Study: Olympus Factory Cloud Application Allowed Olympus to become familiar with cloud & IoT technology before developing Service and Customer offering. Consists of:
• Device App (the ‘Thing’) o Interface with cloud to load SW and configure instrument settings
• Cloud App o Collect data during manufacturing and testing o Analyze data to make sure instrument is in correct state and pass/
fail status o Trigger events- e.g. error codes and prompt actions to be taken by
factory personnel • Dashboard
o Display real time manufacturing data

IIoT & Cloud Computing To Improve Inspection
Fleet Management • Track devices for
inventory & usage • Check health of
instrument / trigger preventative maintenance
• Remote support of NDT device
• Instant software/firmware upgrades
• Push profiles, methods, set-ups remotely to units in the field
NDT Instrumentation / Technology Owners

IIoT & Cloud Computing To Improve Inspection Inspection Service / Asset Owners
Job Management • Project Scope • Industry or Site
Procedure • Regulatory & Safety
Compliance • P&IDs, CMLs • Geospatial Locations • Device Set-up (example
PAUT) pushed by internal expert or manufacturer applications support
NDTMA 2017 Annual Conference
Golden Nugget Hotel, Las Vegas, NV February 14-16, 2017
IIoT & Cloud Computing To Improve Inspection Inspection Service / Asset Owners
Real-Time Data • Review by remote Senior
NDT Technician or Reliability Engineer for timely decision making or to automatically trigger action
• Trigger immediate re-measure or additional measurement while inspector is in location (esp. if scaffolding, insulation removal, special permitting, other time sensitive considerations)
NDTMA 2017 Annual Conference

IIoT & Cloud Computing To Improve Inspection Inspection Service / Asset Owners
In Field Training • OJT training hours can be
easily monitored by Senior NDT tech for guidance and testing
• Live steaming of actual measurement to better understand variables affecting measurement
NDTMA 2017 Annual Conference
Golden Nugget Hotel, Las Vegas, NV February 14-16, 2017
IIoT & Cloud Computing To Improve Inspection Inspection Service / Asset Owners
Data Processing via Cloud • Processing of NDT data
with advanced tools/algorithms that cannot be deployed onboard device
• Partnering with third party software to process inspection data an automatically analyze the data for defects, anomalies, retests, etc.
NDTMA 2017 Annual Conference

Conclusion
As an NDT Inspection Technology Manufacturer: • All new inspection technology released must be “connected” devices
• Generalized cloud solution must accommodate all future products
• Strive to modify legacy products to connect directly to the Cloud or through “bridge”
device, such as PC or mobile device application
• Stay current with IIoT and Cloud security protocol
• Continue to understand, o What data should be collected? o Who will collect this data? o Where and how will I store this data? o How and by whom will this data be analysed? o What decisions will be affected by the analysis?
