Preventive Maintenance is a very prominent cost salvage formula when it comes to retention a plant running optimally. There are 3 types of maintenance - Corrective, Preventive and Predictive. All vary considerably and furnish separate results.
Corrective Maintenance is surprisingly coarse in industries, when it shouldn't be. An example of remedial maintenance is going out and purchasing a new car, and then driving it until something breaks on it. What I mean is that you don't take it to get the oil changed, or services done. It is just driven until the car breaks down. Repairs to the car are then costly, because they are unplanned, more serious damage has been done and arranging the logistics is a real hassle.

If you wanted to save money on the vehicle, you would take it to get serviced at set intervals. They would change the oil, fix any minor problems and the car would run until a major failure. This is known as preventive maintenance - taking small steps to keep the car in optimal condition. Preventive Maintenance is planned maintenance that happens regardless of the health of the equipment. By doing maintenance that is pre planned, the parts, tools and labour can be pre arranged, meaning that things go smoother and finally the maintenance costs less.
Predictive maintenance includes oil analysis, vibration monitoring and infra-red analysis. Each of these methods can be used to rule the health of the car (or equipment) and then maintenance can be planned to fix the issues before they become too much of a problem. Oil pathology involves finding at the contaminants in the oil to rule the health of the machine. The oil health can accurately rule this. Vibration monitoring will rule how the equipment is wearing, as machines will vibrate at separate amplitudes and frequencies as parts wear.
Infra-red monitoring identifies hot spots, which are commonly areas where problems are occurring. If you look at a switchboard and find one single area that is much hotter than the rest then you know there is a question there.
In an ideal world, a combination of all 3 types of maintenance is the best choice. remedial Maintenance on its own is the most expensive, and a combination of all 3 is the least high-priced in most situations. The more preventive maintenance done the less high-priced the remedial maintenance is done, and there are other non financial benefits too. In order to ensure these 3 types of maintenance are applied, a Cmms is a good start. The Computer Managed Maintenance system will help to plan the logistics of maintenance, and analyse the data entered which results in huge cost savings.
