Emerson launches web-based tool for tracking couplings.
Emerson's Power Transmission Solutions introduced an online tool for tracking the location, life history and latest revision drawings and installation instructions for all critical drivetrain couplings owned by customers, whether installed or in spares inventory. Developed by Emerson's Kop-Flex business unit, the web-based Asset Management Program (AMP) for couplings accurately identifies couplings, graphically displays the location in a specific drive, identifies parts/couplings at the site that are interchangeable, makes assembly drawings a click away and gives a detailed service history and action to be taken during service intervals.Developed by a worldwide engineering team experienced in coupling design, maintenance, repair and troubleshooting, the Coupling AMP provides in-depth information on components critical to the operation of major systems such as compressors, turbines or pumps. Coupling AMP is built to categorize, display and log information in the exact way that plant engineers already visualize it, according to the company.
Coupling AMP's custom graphics display specific drive configurations for rotating equipment. By clicking on a coupling, AMP opens a "coupling card" with all related information, such as end-user stock code, serial numbers, OEM part numbers, Kop-Flex part numbers, location of spares or interchangeable parts, bill of material, latest revisions of the assembly drawing, installation instructions and service history. The system also maintains records on customer training, trouble shooting analyses and service reports in a history associated with a specific serial numbered coupling. Coupling AMP is a subscription service maintained by Emerson.
