Switching toward a conscious and data driven Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) has always been the Santo Graal for the maintenance of critical rotating equipment, for which typically OEMs recommend a planned and time based maintenance.

CST combines rotating equipment design knowledge with experience in the field, helping end users to take better decision about maintenance, operations and upgrades challenges.
