This hands-on, project-based course teaches you how to predict machine failures before they happen by combining machine learning with real-time, no-code automation. You'll move from the business case for predictive maintenance — the crippling cost of unplanned downtime and why reactive maintenance is broken — through the sensor data and failure signatures that make prediction possible, and into a plain-English primer on the ML models behind it all, with no heavy maths required.
