Optimisation of Preventive Maintenance Regime Based on Failure Mode System Modelling Considering Reliability

Abstract Today, the ability to maintain a continuous complex system operation is viewed as key attribute for ensuring uninterrupted revenue contribution and survival of business. Many industrial organisations have come understand that by having an effective plan maintenance, efficiency reliability can be improved, while costs minimised revenue-generating production continue. The novelty this paper based on using failure modes effects analysis (FMEA) develop holistic preventive maintenance schedule complete system. A modelled series parallel arrangement subsystems components, different components determined from their life expectancy. objective ensure continuity output maintaining high level minimising total costs. analysed Weibull failure-time distribution. By exhaustive search optimisation method, cost determining optimal replacement interval each FMEA block, subject reliability. Based results obtained case study, it shown approach in during activities, reduce costs, achieve maximum This applied any form system, at every step process.
