A trustworthy AI-driven framework for condition monitoring and Remaining Useful Life (RUL) prediction of rotating machinery in smart manufacturing environments that integrates multi-sensor condition monitoring with machine learning and deep learning models for intelligent fault diagnosis and prognostics is presented.
Abstract
The increasing adoption of smart manufacturing technologies has intensified the need for reliable predictive maintenance solutions to reduce unexpected equipment failures and production downtime. Rotating machinery, including bearings, electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, and turbines, represents a critical class of industrial assets whose degradation directly affects manufacturing productivity, operational safety, and maintenance costs. This study presents a trustworthy AI-driven framework for condition monitoring and Remaining Useful Life (RUL) prediction of rotating machinery in smart manufacturing environments. The proposed framework integrates multi-sensor condition monitoring using vibration, temperature, acoustic emission, pressure, and motor current measurements with machine learning and deep learning models for intelligent fault diagnosis and prognostics. To improve transparency and industrial trust, the framework incorporates Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) techniques, including SHAP and LIME, to identify the operational factors influencing prediction outcomes. In addition, Digital Twin technology and Physics-Informed Artificial Intelligence are integrated to enhance prediction reliability and maintain consistency with engineering knowledge. The framework is evaluated using benchmark datasets and standard classification and regression metrics, including Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-Score, MAE, RMSE, and RUL prediction error. The results demonstrate that the integration of multi-sensor monitoring, explainable AI, and Digital Twin-assisted analysis improves diagnostic reliability, prediction consistency, and maintenance decision support. The proposed approach offers practical benefits for Industry 4.0 applications by reducing unplanned downtime, optimizing maintenance scheduling, improving equipment availability, and enhancing the trustworthiness of AI-based predictive maintenance systems for critical rotating machinery.
The proposed Explainable AI-Based Predictive Maintenance Framework (XAI-PMF) addresses this challenge by integrating IIoT sensing, intelligent feature engineering, hybrid machine learning, and explainability techniques such as SHAP, LIME, and rule extraction.

Timely asset maintenance remains a critical challenge in Industry 4.0 environments. Predictive Maintenance aims to anticipate failures and estimate Remaining Useful Life (RUL), enabling cost reduction and minimizing production downtime. However, real-world industrial scenarios are often characterized by noisy telemetry data, incomplete information about operating conditions, and weak degradation signals, which limit the effectiveness of conventional data-driven approaches. This paper proposes a methodology for RUL prediction under such challenging conditions, leveraging raw sensor telemetry without requiring detailed knowledge of machine operating characteristics. The approach introduces a novel Degradation Index, combined with a Health Index, to better represent degradation patterns. Additionally, signal preprocessing techniques, including Savitzky–Golay and Kalman filters, are applied to mitigate noise and improve data quality. The methodology integrates statistical analysis, similarity-based pattern extraction, and machine learning techniques, including Convolutional Neural Networks and Long Short-Term Memory models, for feature selection and prediction. Experiments conducted on real-world industrial datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly improves prediction performance, achieving high accuracy and enabling failure anticipation up to five days in advance. The results highlight the importance of feature engineering and signal processing in PdM applications, showing that combining degradation modeling with deep learning yields robust, generalizable RUL predictions, even in noisy, partially observed environments.
