چکیده
Given the large expenditures on capital equipment characteristic of mining, technology developers and users alike place a very high priority on improving equipment productivity. Proper maintenance is essential to maximizing both availability and productivity. At the same time, maintenance services are a major cost element of all mine operations.1 Accordingly, after process optimization, equipment operations, maintenance, and repair technologies were most commonly cited as critical by the participants. The prominence of O&M technologies in mining coincides with earlier RAND assessments of critical technologies across U.S. industry.2
