Industry 4.0: is your industry ready for disruption?
The term industry 4.0 came after a high-tech strategic project by the German government that promoted the transformation of industrial processes and operations through the use of digital technology. Like the first and second industrial revolution, industry 4.0 has also caused major disruptions in production and operations models with the advancement of technologies that have brought about changes never seen before. It is thanks to the use of such technologies that the models of industrial operation have constantly achieved better results and every day the industries have become intelligent. INDUSTRY 4.0 AS A TOOL FOR THE [...]

Vidya selected for NACE European Corrosion Management Congress!
We're happy to announce that our abstract was accepted for NACE European Corrosion Management! Our paper was about "Advances Using Digital Twin and AI to Predict and Manage Atmospheric Corrosion - A Smart Tool for Decision Makers", and was submitted by our CEO Otavio Corrêa. The event will happen online, as a virtual conference, between 17 and 18 November 2020. Know more about the event: "As a cost-effective method to mitigate corrosion issues, corrosion management has become an essential strategy to combat corrosion. The new NACE European Corrosion Management Conference provides a unique look at different management system domains, corrosion [...]
Revolutionize inspection activities with Vidya Software
Have you ever imagined having complete control over the integrity of industrial assets on a centralized and fully digital platform? With Vidya Software this is possible! In addition to delivering greater control over the information needed for strategic decision making, Vidya Software is a great ally for planning inspection and maintenance plans, automating the process. Through the software, service orders and documentation are now shared digitally with the teams involved in the activity, making the process more agile and more cost-effective. VIDYA SOFTWARE IN OPTIMIZING INSPECTION TASKS Through the 3D model, the operator can quickly locate the [...]
Integrate Documents and PLM through Digital Transformation
Digital transformation can integrate the phases of the PLM (Project Life-Cycle Management) through documents and data automation, resulting in more effective results. Therefore, avoiding known problems, as a fragmented data system. I've talked more about the PLM in my last article, about Inventory, you can click here to access it. Piles of documents, technical drawings, and spreadsheets, were produced in the Design phase. However, until the Operation and Maintenance phase, crucial information can be lost. Therefore, the importance of keeping the entire process documented is that projects related and interdependent to each other don't get missing. Besides, the design project [...]
Vidya Characteristics: Customizable Elements and Attributes
Maintaining industrial asset integrity is essential to guarantee the worker's safety on the industrial plant, and avoid environmental incidents. According to Ralph Rio, vice-president of ARC Advisory Group, the asset integrity needs to be managed since the first phases of the PLM (Project Lifecycle Management), concerned with the material lifecycle of each element. Inspection, he points out, is just one of the steps to run a quality asset management program, since it must also include: “Risk Based Inspection strategy (RBI) Pipeline integrity management typically for corrosion In-service inspection with routine and specialist non-destructive testing (NDT) Reliability centered maintenance (RCM) Condition-based [...]
