GEAPS Mid-Atlantic Chapter

The GEAPS Mid-Atlantic Chapter tried something a little different at their February meeting. The event took place at Brew River in Salisbury, Maryland, but our guest speaker was 2834 miles away in Sacramento, California!

25 GEAPS members looked on as Spencer Hirsch, of TinMan Systems, presented to us live via internet connection, about automation, design, and maintenance of conveyance systems.

During this webinar, we were shown how real-time equipment health monitoring can help reduce unplanned downtime, extend the life of conveyors and bucket elevators, and improve reliability during peak seasons such as harvest. Spencer provided valuable insight for anyone involved in grain handling, storage, or processing who wants to better understand how predictive maintenance technologies can support safer, more efficient operations.

TinMan Systems is an industrial diagnostics company specializing in real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance for conveyors and material-handling equipment. Their solutions use advanced sensors, machine vision, and AI-driven analytics to detect early signs of wear, misalignment, vibration, and overheating in conveyor and elevator systems—issues that are especially critical in grain handling and agricultural operations.
