The emergence of the Industrial Internet of Things paves the way for enhancing the real-time monitoring capabilities of contemporary factories. This can be materialised through sensors collecting data which can be further analysed. This paradigm enables the detection of indicators concerning systems’ degradation and facilitates corrective actions to be performed ahead of time. In this paper, we propose a damage prediction framework exploiting data that are coming from the core IT system in a steel industry use case. The novelty of our approach lies in the exploitation of Deep Learning techniques over streaming operational sensor data. To evaluate the framework, real-life data are collected and analysed based on daily operational activities enriched with the Remaining Useful Life (RUL). The Remaining Useful Life is automatically computed. We also periodically align the damage attribute, which is recorded in the …
