Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator: A Game-Changer in Equipment Maintenance

On October 1, 2025, Mirocrea Co., Ltd. will officially launch its new option, the Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator, as part of its equipment maintenance cloud service, Mirocle Karute. This innovative AI tool aims to address the growing challenges faced by the manufacturing industry, where the retirement of skilled workers has raised serious concerns about knowledge transfer and maintenance practices.

Addressing the Challenges of Maintenance Dependence

As numerous skilled technicians retire, industries, particularly manufacturing, face a knowledge crisis that threatens the effectiveness of maintenance operations. Traditionally, maintenance tasks have heavily relied on the experience and instincts of veteran workers, resulting in inadequate documentation and an over-reliance on their judgment. This fragmentation of expertise often leads to recurring problems across various sites, as knowledge is dispersed rather than centralized. To tackle this, there is an urgent need for a system that captures the know-how of experienced technicians, enabling everyone to access it as needed. The development of the Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator aims to facilitate this process, significantly improving initial response capabilities.

The AI Assistant Tailored for the Field

The Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator operates as a chat-based AI assistant integrated with the Mirocle Karute cloud service. It allows users to type in queries in terms commonly used in their daily operations. Upon receiving a question, such as "What should I do if I hear an unusual noise from the pump’s motor?" the AI swiftly references past maintenance records to provide relevant advice and solutions.

In addition, the interface is user-friendly, with voice recognition available to make it even more accessible. This simplicity means that even less experienced staff can use it right away without needing to memorize complex procedures. The AI provides a supportive experience akin to having a seasoned expert by your side, empowering users to respond without hesitation.

Because users can ask questions in everyday language, accessing information is significantly more straightforward than traditional search tools. This ease allows for the natural utilization of knowledge accumulated at different facilities, ensuring that information flows freely instead of stagnating in silos. Consequently, the Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator can effectively resolve challenges related to dependence on veteran technicians and knowledge discrepancies between different locations, thus bolstering technical inheritance and response capabilities.

Key Features and Benefits

The Mirocle AI Maintenance Navigator delivers a level of support previously unattainable with conventional search tools:
