Your window to engine insights is WiDE open
WinGD’s Integrated Digital Expert (WiDE) system is a comprehensive performance monitoring system that supports crew on vessels and on shore by delivering business-enhancing, actionable insights from engine and ship data.
WiDE’s performance analysis and condition monitoring is based on a tailored digital twin model of the main engine that combines detailed engine configuration and tuning with the specific engine’s factory test and sea trial results. This digital twin is compared to real-time performance to identify differences and highlight opportunities to optimize the main engine operation and offer early warning of potential faults, malfunctions or maintenance requirements.
WiDE has received SP0 ‘Cyber Secure Essential’ type approval from DNV, which confirms that systems are compatible with vessels constructed to meet IACS cybersecurity requirements.
WiDE is available by subscription for all new WinGD engines and can be retrofitted to electronically controlled engines already in operation.

Case study:
WiDE and WinGD customer support
The crew were proactively contacted by WinGD’s Customer Operation Expert and notified of a potentially leaking fuel injector on one of the cylinder units that could lead to potential scuffing. They conducted an inspection and confirmed WinGD’s analysis. As a result, the defective fuel injector was replaced and the engine continued to operate as normal.
Customer benefits: the issue was identified and solved before any failures could occur contributing to savings in operational costs while maintaining the availability of the main engine.
