Edited by Amanda McLeman, Plant Engineering
ExpertALERT 
3.50 gives manufacturers the ability to improve plant performance by better prioritizing machine repairs while remaining focused on reliability and uptime priorities based on the ability to more rapidly collect and process data and access accurate results.
The assessment software provides critical machinery health information in place of just vibration data, by rapidly screening vibration measurements and applying thousands of unique rules to identify individual faults in a wide variety of machine types. The automated machinery condition assessment system can process hundreds of vibration measurements in just a few minutes.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
