AFL and VIE Technologies announce partnership to deliver predictive monitoring for critical infrastructure
AFL, a manufacturer of fibre optic cables, connectivity and equipment, and VIE Technologies, a pioneer in non-invasive, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered predictive monitoring and maintenance solutions for power transformers and mechanical equipment, has announced a partnership that aims to deliver intelligent infrastructure monitoring solutions for the energy and data centre sectors.
As utilities and data centres seek smarter ways to manage risk and extend asset life, this partnership empowers organisations to take a proactive approach to managing critical, high-value infrastructure. By combining AFL’s deep connectivity expertise with VIE Technologies’ advanced AI-powered monitoring, operators can reduce unplanned outages, minimise total cost of ownership and improve long-term performance. VIE Technologies’ analytics platform uses continuous sensing to predict power transformer and other mechanical equipment failures weeks, or even months, in advance.
“VIE Technologies provides exactly what the energy sector needs right now: intelligent monitoring that can predict failures of mission critical equipment including power transformers, pumps, chillers and other equipment before they happen,” said David LeBlanc, the VP of corporate development and transformation at AFL. “Combined with our Broadband, Energy and Data Centre portfolios, we can now offer our customers a complete infrastructure solution that enhances both reliability and operational efficiency.”
This collaboration positions AFL to deliver a comprehensive solution, combining connectivity with real-time insights, at a time when infrastructure reliability is more critical than ever.
“We’re excited to collaborate with AFL to help companies increase the reliability and efficiency of their power transformers,” said Rahul Chaturvedi, the CEO and co-founder of VIE Technologies. “AFL’s focus on data, connectivity and customer experience aligns with our goal of using machine learning and continuous sensing to enable smarter, more resilient grids and power systems.”
