Requirements for an Intelligent Maintenance System for Industry 4.0

Recent advances in the development of technological devices and software for Industry 4.0 have pushed a change in the maintenance management systems and processes. Nowadays, in order to maintain a company competitive, a computerised management system is required to help in its maintenance tasks. This paper presents an analysis of the complexities and requirements for maintenance of Industry 4.0. It focuses on intelligent systems that can help to improve the intelligent management of maintenance. Finally, it presents a summary of lessons learned specified as guidelines for the design of such intelligent systems that can be applied horizontally to any company in the Industry.
