Abstract When a fan or pump stops without warning, the bill is rarely just the spare part. Plants still lose hours to that kind of failure. We listen to the machine instead of bolting on extra probes: a cheap microphone is enough to hear wear, imbalance or a leak before the asset seizes. EchoEdge is the working stack we assembled for that job. A small convolutional net reads log-mel spectrograms of industrial audio. A two-mode console sits on top. The whole thing also ships as a Windows folder that runs offline. Audio comes from MIMII, the public industrial-machine set on Zenodo (record 3384388). MIMII already blends machine sound with plant noise at three signal-to-noise ratios: +6 dB, 0 dB and −6 dB. One net is trained on all three mixes and then, for each 10 s clip, says normal or abnormal. On a held-out slice of unit id_00, mixed across those three ratios, we measured 96.71% accuracy, 97.48% precision and 95.08% recall on the abnormal class at P(abnormal) ≥ 0.40. Streamlit drives the console. It can either walk through a live 10 s-per-clip demo, with staged faults and a mix of the three noise packs, or score one uploaded recording. Playback, a live spectrum, a latching silence alarm and the portable folder sit around that core. The numbers are for one unit under MIMII’s controlled packs. They are enough for a lab demo and for operator practice on this unit. They are not a licence to drop the same weights on every machine in a plant.
