Integrating machine learning algorithms leveraged by advanced data acquisition systems is emerging as a pivotal approach in predictive maintenance. This paper presents the deployment of such an integration on an industrial air compressor unit. This research combines updated concepts from the Internet of Things, machine learning, multi-sensor data collection, structured data mining, and cloud-based data analysis. To this end, temperature, pressure, and flow rate data were acquired from sensors in contact with the compressor. The observed data were sent to the Structured Query Language database. Then, a Linear Regression model was fitted to the training data, and the optimized model was stored for real-time inference. Afterward, structured data were passed through the model, and if the data exceeded the determined threshold, a warning email was sent to an operator. Adopting the Internet of Things enhances surveillance for specialists, decreasing the failure and damage probabilities. The model achieved 98% accuracy in the Mean Squared Error metric for our regression model. By analyzing the gathered data, the implemented system demonstrates the capabilities to predict potential equipment failures with promising accuracy, facilitating a shift from reactive to proactive maintenance strategies. The findings reveal substantial potential for improvements in maintenance efficiency, equipment uptime, and cost savings.
