    On this episode of Gear Talk, Wes Cash sits down with Levi Heilman from KCF Technologies to discover more about remote monitoring technologies and how to successfully apply them as part of a well-rounded, world-class facility.
 
With a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Penn State, Levi is using his insights to bring the human touch back to sensor technologies by helping KCF's users capitalize on their technicians' talents in maintenance and reliability. Levi talks with Wes about how, with KCF's technology, users can begin to utilize data to make thoughtful and impactful decisions that increase the efficiency of work and free up technician time for more big-picture projects.
 
He makes the case that by successfully using remote monitoring to understand how machines break down, facilities can not only prevent unnecessary downtime, but prevent lasting consequences by addressing issues quickly and properly.
