- Both manufacturers and users of various products in today's competitive market must provide detailed tracking of malfunctions and corresponding maintenance actions. A Maintenance Management Information System (MMIS), developed with this aim should help perform failure cause analysis, reduce downtime, optimize maintenance resources and lower total maintenance expenses.ALD's V-FRACAS software system achieves these objectives and includes the following options:
-
Failure and maintenance actions recording
-
Corrective Action definition
-
Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) management
An advanced RCM application allows to achieve an optimal balance between total expenditures for preventive and corrective maintenance versus total production losses arising from failures. The proposed maintenance policy incorporates periodic prediction of an item's remaining lifetime based on its status and elapsed operating time. -
