Introduction to Reliability Centered MaintenanceDibyendu De
Introduces Reliability Centered Maintenance, strategies employed, formulation of effective maintenance plan, reduction of consequences of failures and failure rate.
The document provides an overview of a presentation on maintenance systems. It discusses key topics like machinery failure, maintenance objectives, types of maintenance including breakdown, planned, preventive, and predictive maintenance. It covers maintenance cost analysis, availability calculation, integration of maintenance with other departments. Specific sections describe maintenance departments and roles, engineers' duties, use of computer systems, importance of maintenance records and overhaul management. The document aims to outline important aspects of effective maintenance systems for industrial operations.
Preventive maintenance aims to prevent equipment failures through a scheduled program of planned maintenance actions. It involves replacing worn components before failure to preserve reliability and enhance equipment performance. An effective preventive maintenance system provides many advantages like reduced downtime, increased asset life, and lower repair costs. While preventive maintenance carries some risks if not properly planned and executed, its overall costs are typically much lower than emergency maintenance required by unexpected failures. Data-driven condition monitoring techniques help optimize preventive maintenance programs.
Types of maintenance, maintenance in plant ,maintenance type suresh tusia
There are four main types of maintenance: breakdown, preventive, predictive, and corrective. Preventive maintenance includes periodic and predictive maintenance. Periodic maintenance is time-based while predictive maintenance is condition-based. Condition monitoring is part of predictive maintenance and involves determining equipment condition while in operation. The different types have advantages like increased equipment life and disadvantages like being labor intensive. Aircraft maintenance includes A, B, C, and D checks performed at increasing intervals. Nondestructive testing is important for aircraft maintenance to inspect for defects without damaging equipment.
The document discusses the importance and objectives of maintenance management. Modern maintenance aims to keep equipment running at high capacity and producing quality products at the lowest possible cost. It also aims to minimize unplanned downtime and maximize availability. Preventive maintenance is important as it can reduce breakdowns, repairs and costs while increasing availability and efficiency. Condition-based maintenance allows failures to be detected early and repairs to be planned in advance. The goals of maintenance are to maintain availability at the lowest cost while ensuring safety.
Definition, types of corrective maintenance, steps and cycle;
Measures of corrective maintenance are: Mean Corrective Maintenance Time , Median Active Corrective Maintenance Time, Maximum Active Corrective Maintenance Time.
Then different models : a system that can either be in up (operating) or down (failed) state; a system that can either be operating normally or failed in two mutually exclusive failure modes; a system that can either be operating normally, operating in degradation mode, or failed completely; a two identical-unit redundant (parallel) system. At least one unit must operate normally for system success.
Autonomous maintenance (AM) involves individual workers maintaining their own equipment through preventative measures like daily checks and correct operation. This represents a shift from a traditional model where production and maintenance were separate functions. AM aims to improve reliability by empowering workers and changing maintenance practices based on equipment changes. Key aspects of AM include preventative maintenance activities to avoid deterioration, regular inspections to detect issues, and prompt repairs to address problems. AM is implemented through a seven step process that establishes cleaning and lubrication standards for equipment.
The document discusses three case studies that illustrate how focusing on reliability improvements versus cost reductions alone can impact maintenance costs and production outcomes:
1) A food processing plant that reduced maintenance staff saw temporary cost savings but then costs increased as reliability declined.
2) An chemical plant that aggressively cut maintenance costs initially saved money but reliability dropped, resulting in $1.2 billion in losses over three years before improvements were made.
3) A plant that prioritized reliability improvements like planned maintenance, vibration analysis, and lubrication training saw maintenance costs rise 3% annually for three years as reliability increased, after which costs dropped 40% while reliability reached 92%. Focusing first on reliability drives down long-term maintenance costs.
The document discusses plant maintenance strategies and terminology. It outlines various types of maintenance including corrective, preventative, and predictive maintenance. It emphasizes the importance of aligning maintenance goals with business goals to improve processes, asset performance, and uptime. Various maintenance planning, control, and terminology are defined to effectively manage strategic assets.
The document discusses different types of maintenance including breakdown, preventive, predictive, corrective, and periodic maintenance. It describes maintenance as preserving equipment and infrastructure by repairing and replacing parts. Effective maintenance planning considers people, location, time, tools, and maintenance information. Key benefits include less downtime, fewer errors and repairs, and improved reliability and safety. Common causes of machinery breakdown include improper maintenance, worn parts, and operator errors. Preventive maintenance software helps coordinate maintenance tasks and store related data.
This document discusses spare parts management. It outlines typical characteristics of spare parts like large variety and numbers, erratic consumption patterns, and high costs. It recommends initially creating a comprehensive list of equipment and spares, classifying criticality and costs. Inventory should be managed by setting reorder levels based on classification. Long term, specifications should be standardized and alternate sources developed. Procurement strategies aim to develop close supplier relationships. Service levels and safety stocks are calculated based on part criticality and costs. Spares are categorized based on usage patterns and life. An optimum stocking policy sets levels based on average consumption and desired service level. Coordination between departments and management support is key to effective spare parts management.
This document discusses various types of mechanical maintenance including preventive, corrective, operational, and lubrication maintenance. Preventive maintenance aims to maximize equipment availability and minimize defects by addressing potential issues before they arise. Corrective maintenance repairs equipment after failures occur. Operational maintenance includes inspecting, cleaning, and minor adjustments. Regular lubrication is important as it can decrease early bearing failures and increase bearing life. Proper maintenance helps keep equipment safe, reliable, and productive while avoiding high costs of unexpected breakdowns.
The document discusses the costs associated with digital avionics systems for civil and military aircraft. It outlines categories of avionics costs such as acquisition costs and operating costs. It also discusses the concept of life cycle cost, which considers total costs from inception through disposal. For civil aircraft specifically, it breaks down formulas for calculating investment cost, which includes installation and spare parts costs, and operating cost, which includes maintenance labor, materials, fuel penalties, and spare parts holding costs over the aircraft's service life. The key relationship discussed is how mean time between failure and life cycle costs are determined based on design quality and data from previous similar systems.

Design & application of cdo for ahmedabad airport within ahmedabad tmaARVIND KUMAR SINGH
ICAO has emphasized on aviation safety, air navigation capacity and efficient environmental protection by strategic objective. ICAO also focused on the development and implementation on PBN, CDO and CCO for sustainable growth of aviation. Global Air Navigation Plan (2013-2028) provides methodology for integrated aviation planning and increased importance of collaborations and partnership among stakeholders. GANP outlined the implementation issues involving the PBN all over the world. In line with ICAO objective, this focuses on CDO procedure at Ahmedabad airport.
Trial CDO has been implemented but no formal procedure for airlines operator has yet been promulgated at various Indian airports including Ahmedabad Airport. Area and Approach are physically located at same place and trained controllers provide these services on rotation basis at Ahmedabad airport. Air Traffic Services provided with surveillance tools. STARs and SIDs were introduced in year 2008 at Ahmedabad Airport. Ahmedabad Airport has medium density traffic of aircraft movement, average 150 schedule aircraft movement per day and approx 75 scheduled arrivals per day. Due to non availability of published procedure limited Continuous Descent Operations are being performed by the arrivals, at Ahmedabad Airport.
This emphasises on analysis of traffic pattern on arrival routes for possible implementation of CDO is existing arrival procedures and study of existing CDO procedure, analysis of cost benefit, fuel efficiency and carbon emission for Ahmedabad airport.
Design & Application of Continuous Descent Operation (CDO) procedure in Ahmedabad TMA for Ahmedabad Airport will provide more efficient airspace & arrival routes, reduction in pilot –controller work load, cost saving to airlines operators and environmental benefits through reduced fuel burn.
With good CDO procedure, initially minimum 65% of arrivals are expected to perform CDO at Ahmedabad leading to saving of cost of operations and carbon emission, in addition to brand and image building of AAI as ANSP at Ahmedabad. The experience gained will also help AAI extend such procedure to other medium to light density traffic airports and subsequently all airports in line with ICAO Guidelines and requirement.

____________________________________________________
SUM (Flight Hours for the fleet of operator ABC for those same 2 years)
DMC =
This is also called a
Cumulative DMC.. In this
case it’s a Cumulative DMC for
the past 2 years
Essentially DMC is a
parameter that describes how
much the system or item
costs to repair/replace, and
how often it fails!

21. 21
Pg.
BOMBARDIER
CONFIDENTIAL
Why a Cumulative DMC?
We use Cumulative DMC for year x to y so we can see what the average cost
per flight hour is for those years…. A system / aircraft incurs many different costs
as time goes by due to change in reliability, failure modes etc. – the Cum DMC
parameter will capture the cost and reliability for that time period.
Picking the correct time period
is essential and is dependent
on what you are analyzing
If you’re calculating the DMC for a
component that fails on average once a
year… then your time period for
calculating Cum DMC should be more
than a year.. You don’t want to calculate
your DMC based on a couple of
premature fails
Mature DMC refers to the DMC of a
system / aircraft where the Cum DMC is
calculated for a sufficient amount of
time so that the system / aircraft is
considered mature
Hmm..?
22. 22
Pg.
BOMBARDIER
CONFIDENTIAL
More on Mature DMC…
When the aircraft is new,
components are less worn out
and components are in
warranty. That is why the DMC
is low in the beginning. As the
aircraft ages, the major
overhauls and heavy checks will
occur. That is why the DMC
increases with time.
Time
DMC
Mature DMC
Cum DMC at
a given time
Aircraft DMC with time
Notice that the Mature DMC line is higher than the last
Cum DMC value. This is because there are some
components that far exceed the life of the aircraft. So the
red line represents the mature Cum DMC at the life of the
aircraft, whereas the Mature DMC blue line represents the
theoretical Mature DMC (which incorporates components
that exceed the aircraft’s life)

A Quick Lesson on Mean Time
Mean Time between Unscheduled Removals (MTBUR) is calculated for
unscheduled removals.
However, there are times when a removal is deemed, “no fault found” (NFF). If
you exclude these NFF removals from the Mean Time, then you are left with the
Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF).

MTBF =

BOMBARDIER

A Quick Lesson on Mean Time Continued…
Sometimes it is important to calculate MTBF as oppose to
MTBUR when calculating DMC, because the Cost of a Failure
might vary significantly to a cost of a No Fault Found.
Sometimes it is useful to find the mean time between any removal
(scheduled/unscheduled)
MTBR =

NFF rate is the ratio of number
of removals that are NFF, to
the total number of removals

Besides different failure modes: a system will have different costs
depending whether the removal is a:

Depending on what you are
analyzing, it might be useful to
calculate the DMC parameters
for each of these types of
removals as oppose to an
overall DMC.
Also the intensity of repair (minor, standard etc.)
will influence the cost

There are 10 Radome removals among 75,000 FH. In the 10 removals, we
discover that there are two removal reasons: foreign object damage (FOD) and
delamination.
You want to exclude FOD because these types of damages are not
caused by the components performance.

A Real World DMC Application
Expressing DMC in dollars per flight hour is a common practice.
Lessors will charge a dollar per flight hour rate when leasing a
system / aircraft to an operator.
Why do they do this? Why can’t
they just charge for whenever
something fails and needs to
get repaired or whenever a
scheduled maintenance is
needed?
38
39. 39
Pg.
BOMBARDIER
CONFIDENTIAL
Lessors do this because even though a component might not fail yet, and might
not reach its scheduled interval yet, it is still being used. As a result, the
scheduled maintenance time and the unscheduled failure time is being used up.
Hence charging in a dollar per flight hour basis, will enable them to “Reserve”
some costs in a linear manner even though a removal might have not occurred
yet. Also, sometimes maintenance facilities offer a Cost by the Hour (CBH) or
Power by the Hour (PBH) agreement to operators, which is also expressed in a
dollar per flight hour basis. This technique is also very useful for airline budgeting.

Budgeting Example
Let’s assume that you are an airline and you want to budget some money
for a main landing gear overhaul and its unscheduled removals
You know that on average unscheduled repairs costs $6000 and they occur
on average every 223,000 FH
You know that that cost of restoration is on average $66,000 and the
restoration interval is 25,000 FC
What amount should you budget?
DMCunscheduled = $6000*2/223,000 = $0.05
DMCscheduled = 2*2*$66,000/60,000 = $4.4

There is a structural component on your aircraft that has a visual inspection every

and are require to change it. You are frustrated because of the vast labour hours
involved in replacing and removing – luckily since it is a 6000FH inspection, you can
tie it with a Base check, so there is no Out of Service Hour impact.
You have a meeting with a supplier to negotiate getting a better component. The
supplier has said that with this upgrade, the new part should last you 12000FH but
the cost to buy a new one will be more expensive (you cannot repair the part, you
need to buy a new one).
Before you go and negotiate pricing with the supplier, what should be your
not-to-exceed cost for this new part?

for the fleet. The same can be done for a specific operator
The top URR components are
sorted from highest to lowest
removal impact

Making a Cost Assessment based on the URR results
• Unscheduled Component removal is part of Direct Maintenance Cost (DMC)
• The following formula can be used to obtain the DMC impact for the top URR
components:
DMC =
MTBUR stands for Mean Time Between Unscheduled Removals expressed in Flight
Hours
URR Stands for Unscheduled Removal Rate expressed in Removals per 1000 Flight
Hours
MTBUR= 1000/URR

URR DMC Results
The top URR components are sorted
from highest to lowest DMC impact.
Notice that the order of components that have the
most economic impact might not be the same as
the order of components that have the most
unscheduled removal impact
This means that the component
that is costing you the most might
not necessarily be the component
that is getting removed the most

Next Step ?
Now that you know your top DMC Drivers based
on URR, see what Service Bulletins there are
that will help reduce the DMC
I can use the Service Bulletin tool to
determine the return on investment of
implementing a Service Bulletin…. Also,
this tool is free!

Can I add my own SB?
Calculating a DMC and DIR benefit is difficult so instead you can enter percent reductions in:
YES – The operator can add their own SB
1. Cancellations
2. Delays
3. OOS Hours
4. Unscheduled Removals
5. NFF Rate

How does the SB tool Calculate this ROI?
Pre SB
Cost Post SB
Cost
Pre SB costs =
Cost of delays, cancellations, OOS hours, number of unscheduled
removals and NFF
Post SB cost =
SB kit Cost + Labour + Pre SB cost – Percent Reductions
