The integration of the cutting-edge techniques behind it entails a deep and complex revolution –changing from scheduled-based processes to smart, reactive ones– that has to be thoroughly applied at different levels. Aiming to shed some light on the path towards such evolution, this work presents an Industry 4.0 based approach for facing a key aspect within factories: the health assessment of critical assets. This work is framed in the context of the innovative project SiMoDiM, which pursues the design and integration of a predictive maintenance system for the stainless steel industry. As a case of study, it focuses on the machinery involved in the production of high-quality steel sheets, i.e. the Hot Rolling Process, and concretely on predicting the degradation of the drums within the heating coilers of Steckel mills (parts with an expensive replacement that work under severe mechanical and thermal stresses). This paper describes a predictive model based on a Bayesian Filter, a tool from the Machine Learning field, to estimate and predict the gradual degradation of such machinery, permitting the operators to make informed decisions regarding maintenance operations. For achieving that, the proposed model iteratively fuses expert knowledge with real time information coming from the hot rolling processes carried out in the factory. The predictive model has been fitted and evaluated with real data from ∼118k processes, proving its virtues for promoting the Industry 4.0 era.
