In times of volatile markets and a challenging competitive situation, companies need simple, uncomplicated solutions tailored to their needs for monitoring the condition of their conveyor technology, such as bucket elevators, as well as palletizing and packaging systems such as the Beumer stretch hood A. "Our customers want to align the maintenance and servicing of their Beumer systems with a predictable, efficient and risk-reducing strategy," says Christian Gottenströter, Product Manager Digital Solutions Diagnostic Center at the Beumer Group. "Our customers tell us that they need simple and effective solutions that fit their specific operating models and maintenance strategies. This is exactly where our customer-oriented and flexible offering for data diagnostics and process optimization comes in. With Beumer Guardian, we offer the two service levels that customers need."

Two different support levels

Beumer Guardian is available in two versions: Beumer Guardian Advanced and Beumer Guardian Performance. Both offerings complement the Beumer Group's customer support offering and enable customers to optimize their processes and make maintenance more efficient. Embedded in a lifetime partner program, customers can choose between two different levels of support, depending on their needs. The new different pricing models for new systems, such as pay-per-use (PPU) and rent-to-own, round off the demand-oriented offering.

Gottenströter adds: "Some of our customers prefer to take a very active role in monitoring and maintaining their machines themselves. For them, Beumer Guardian Advanced is the right solution, while others want a fully managed solution such as Beumer Guardian Performance, where the Beumer Group takes over the monitoring of the equipment with the Global Monitoring Center and proactively takes care of concerns via the hotline to relieve the customer in their daily business. This flexible model reflects the dynamic market conditions in which customers find themselves. This helps them to minimize operational risks and focus on their core business."

The benefits of Beumer Guardian include live insight into ongoing operations and fast and targeted problem detection through 24/7 monitoring of the systems and proactive hotline support. Beumer Guardian enables both performance and condition-based plant monitoring, providing predictability of maintenance, as well as automated structured reporting and documentation.
