Maintenance
All activities that maintain facilities and equipment in good working order so that a system can perform as intended.

Maintenance
It is consider as a combination of actions carried out in order to replace, repair, service (or modify) the components, or some identifiable grouping of components, of a manufacturing plant so that it will continue to operate to specified availability for specified time.

Function of Maintenance
The function of maintenance is the control of plant availability.

Breakdown Maintenance
It means that people wait until equipment fails and repair it. Such a thing could be used when the equipment failure does not significantly affect the operation or production or generate any significant loss other than repair cost.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
11
Preventive Maintenance
It is a daily maintenance ( cleaning, inspection, oiling and re-tightening ), design to retain the healthy condition of equipment and prevent failure through the prevention of deterioration, periodic inspection or equipment condition diagnosis, to measure deterioration. It is further divided into periodic maintenance and predictive maintenance. Just like human life is extended by preventive medicine, the equipment service life can be prolonged by doing preventive maintenance.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
12
a. Predictive Maintenance
This is a method in which the service life of important parts are predicted based on inspection or diagnosis, in order to use the parts to the limit of their service life. Compared to periodic maintenance, predictive maintenance is condition based maintenance. It manages trend values, by measuring and analyzing data about deterioration and employs a surveillance system, designed to monitor conditions through an on-line system.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
13
b. Periodic Maintenance
Time based maintenance consists of periodically inspecting, servicing and cleaning equipment and replacing parts to prevent sudden failure and process problems.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
14
Corrective Maintenance
It improves equipment and its components so that preventive maintenance can be carried out reliably. Equipment with design weakness must be redesigned to improve reliability or improving maintainability.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
15
Maintenance Prevention
It indicates the design of new equipment. Weakness of current machines are sufficiently studied ( on site information leading to failure prevention, easier maintenance and prevents of defects, safety and ease of manufacturing ) and are incorporated before commissioning a new equipment.

Consequences of Breakdown
1. Production capacity is reduced2. Orders are delayed3. There is no production4. Overhead Continues5. Increasing the cost per unit6. Quality issues7. Safety issues8. Environmental issuesCH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
17
Breakdown Maintenance
It is to deal with the problems after they have taken place.
Reactive Approach
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
18
Preventive Maintenance
It is to deal with the problems through certain programs.
Proactive Approach
Examples:• Lubrication• Adjustment• Cleaning• Inspection and replacement of worn parts

Concepts of Preventive Maintenance
Goal: To reduce the incidence of breakdowns or failures in the plant or equipment to avoid the associated cost.
Costs: Loss of outputs, idle works, schedule disruptions, injuries, damage, products or facilities, repairs.
Periodic: Scheduled according to maintenance personnel and avoid interference with operating hours.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
21
Scheduling of Preventive Maintenance
• Results; planned inspection• Calendar; passage of time• No. of operating hours
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
22
Example - 1
The frequency of breakdown of a machine per month is shown in the table.Cost of a breakdown = $ 1,000 / month
Cost of preventive maintenance is $1,250 / monthManager should do preventive maintenance, or would it be cheaper to repair the machine when it breaks down?

Frequency of occurrence 0.20 0.30 0.40 0.10

Example – 1 (Solution)
Breakdown cost = 1.40 x 1000 = $ 1,400 / monthSavings = $ 150 / month (Preventive Maintenance)

Problem - 1
The probability that equipment used in hospital lab will need recalibration is given in the following table;
A service firm is willing to provide maintenance and provide any necessary calibrations for free for a fee of $ 650 per month. Recalibration costs $ 500 per time. Which approach would be most cost effective, recalibration as needed or the service contract?
No. of recalibration 0 1 2 3 4
Probability of occurrence 0.15 0.25 0.30 0.20 0.10

Predictive Maintenance
It is an attempt to determine when to perform preventive maintenance activities.
Historical Data:Installation, operating hours, dates, types of insurance and types of repairs.
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
26
Approaches used to dealwith breakdowns
1. Standby or backup equipment2. Inventories of spare parts3. Operators based minor repairs4. Repair people

Replacement
• What is the cost of replacement compared with the cost of continued maintenance?
• Technology change• Forecasts of demand
CH 17 (Supp.): Maintenance
28
Example - 2
The average time before breakdown is normally distributed and has a mean of 3 weeks and a standard deviation of .60 weeks. If breakdown cost averages $1,000 and preventive maintenance costs $250, what is the optimal maintenance interval?

Problem - 2The frequency of breakdown of machine that issues lottery tickets is given in the following table. Repairs cost an average of $240. A service firm is willing to provide preventive maintenance under either of two options. #1 is $500 and covers all necessary repairs for free, and #2 is $350 and covers any repairs after the first one, for free, provide any necessary repairs. Which option would have the lowest expected cost, pay for all repairs, service option #1, or service option #2?
