Condition-based Maintenance Modelling

The use of condition monitoring techniques in industry to direct maintenance actions has increased rapidly over recent years to the extent that it has marked the beginning of what is likely to prove a new generation in production and maintenance management practice. There are both economic and technological reasons for this development driven by tight profit margins, high outage costs and an increase in plant complexity and automation. Technical advances in condition monitoring techniques have provided a means to achieve high availability and to reduce scheduled and unscheduled production shutdowns. In all cases, the measured condition information does, in addition to potentially improving decision making, have a value added role for a manager in that there is now a more objective means of explaining actions if challenged.
