Siemens Canada Limited Aero-Derivative Gas Turbines (SCLAGT) is a leading aero-derivative industrial gasturbine OEM for the Industrial Trent and the Industrial RB211 turbines, and carries out research, developmentand production at its site in Montreal, QC, Canada. Its primary objective is the advancement of gas turbinetechnology for the next generation of gas turbines. The experimental work is supported by fit for purpose testrig equipment and test bed facilities that are continuously being upgraded to the latest available technology.The proposed research project falls within the remit of the Aero-Derivative Gas Turbines Productiondepartment of continuously seeking to advance its manufacturing capabilities to maintain and increase theirposition in the turbine OEM market. Most processes at SCLAGT require heavy equipment such as liftingplatforms, cranes, balancing machines, ovens and drills.To continue their leading position in this market it is key to maintain custom delivery at high level e.g. byreducing the plant's equipment downtime. The proposed project aims to support this mission by developingadvanced Predictive Maintenance (PM) tools for their key heavy equipment. Main objective is to go towards anovel Industry 4.0 approach for PM, making use of sensors, data acquisition systems, algorithms and big data.Results of the proposed study on PM will be transferred to SCLAGT. This will help to secure the strong marketposition of this Canadian company across North America. Since SCLAGT is based in Montreal, increasingtheir plant operation efficiency will secure their jobs and market position in OEM turbine technology and couldlead to the creation of new jobs, thereby providing a benefit to Canada overall. In the long term, SCLAGT isevaluating to build a new modern factory in the Montreal area where they will incorporate the Industry 4.0principles resulting from this study right from the start.

西门子加拿大有限公司航空衍生燃气轮机（SCLAGT）是一家领先的航空衍生工业燃气轮机OEM，为工业Trent和工业RB211涡轮机提供服务，并在其位于加拿大蒙特利尔的工厂进行研究、开发和生产。其主要目标是下一代燃气轮机的燃气轮机技术的进步。实验工作得到了适合用途的测试设备和试验台设施的支持，这些设备和试验台设施不断升级为最新的可用技术。拟议的研究项目属于航空衍生燃气轮机生产部门的职权范围，该部门不断寻求提高其制造能力，以保持和增加其在涡轮OEM市场中的地位。scagt的大多数工艺都需要重型设备，如升降平台、起重机、平衡机、烤箱和钻机。为了保持他们在这个市场的领先地位，关键是要保持高水平的定制交付，例如通过减少工厂的设备停机时间。拟议的项目旨在通过为其关键重型设备开发先进的预测性维护（PM）工具来支持这一任务。主要目标是利用传感器、数据采集系统、算法和大数据，为PM走向新的工业4.0方法。建议的PM研究结果将转交给scagt。这将有助于确保这家加拿大公司在北美的强大市场地位。由于scagt总部位于蒙特利尔，提高工厂运营效率将确保他们在OEM涡轮机技术方面的工作和市场地位，并可能创造新的就业机会，从而为加拿大整体带来好处。从长远来看，scagt正在评估在蒙特利尔地区建立一个新的现代化工厂，在那里他们将从一开始就纳入这项研究得出的工业4.0原则。
