Abstract: In industries, wide variety of machines is performing variety of processes. Corrective maintenance is a maintenance task performed to identify, isolate, and rectify a fault so that the failed equipment can be restored to an operational state. The main focus of the paper is to alert on breakdown occurrence and to display the machine status visible in one view and also to calculate machine performance to improve machine efficiency. As soon as the fault/breakdown occurs it should be conveyed to responsible person, sooner we can convey the problem; the lower the communication time loss and sooner the equipment breakdown handled lower the production time loss. So we have developed an instant approach in industrial equipment breakdown handling via SMS which results in 1) Real time machine breakdown status monitoring using IoT 2) Alert System for effective communication 3) Visibility of all machines in one view for transparency in working. This kind of approach will lead to a unique system with different solutions along with Internet of things.
