Maintenance Objectives
1. Increased Availability
2. Maximize useful life of equipment
3. Reducing Cost of production
4. Safety Requirements

Maintenance Types
 Breakdown Maintenance
 Planned Maintenance
 Preventive Maintenance
 Predictive Maintenance
Maintenance Types
 Run the equipment till breakdowns
 No services except occasional
lubrication unless failure occurs
 No maintenance men on regular
basis
 Maintenance done by sub-
contractors
Breakdown Maintenance
Increased Down Time Increased costs & Pressures
No organized efforts to find out
reasons
•No stock of spares
•
•No budget
•No records and No Safety
* Initially it looks economical
Maintenance Types
In this type of service, the emphasis is placed on the
machines condition
 What does the manufacturer prescribe?
 Is it working under normal load?
 Are the conditions as good as those envisaged by the
manufacturer?
 Do we allow for extra attention owing to corrosion, wear etc
Planned Maintenance
Putting the machine in good condition timely e.g replacement of filter/oil, plant
overhaul based on manufacturer recommendation
Maintenance Types
 Instructions are more detailed than in routine
 Schedule is drawn with dates/Hrs
 Need for establishing the work-load for the crew
 Entails considerable planning effort, faithful
implementation
and recording
 Detailed instructions reduce the chance of missing any
activity. Unforeseen work is greatly reduced
Planned Maintenance advantages
Maintenance Types
 PM increases reliability
 PM reduces work-load
 PM reduces down time
 PM reduces unplanned work
 PM reduces maintenance cost
Preventive Maintenence
Maintenance Types
 System which strives to reduce the likelihood of failures.
 Parts are replaced on time basis that could prevent failure
though the part maybe in good condition
 Locates weak spots of machinery and equipments
 Provides them periodic/scheduled inspections and minor
repairs to reduce the danger of unanticipated breakdowns
 Preventive Maintenance System is more expensive due to
more of planning and replacement of parts

Preventive Maintenance Schedule
Maintenance Types
System based on predicting the failure.
 In predictive maintenance, machinery conditions are
periodically monitored and this enables the
maintenance crews to take timely actions, such as
machine adjustment, repair or overhaul
 It makes use of human sense and other sensitive
instruments, such as audio gauge, vibration analyzer,
amplitude meter, pressure, temperature and resistance
strain gauges etc.
 Monitoring the condition of machine and its components
 Planning the maintenance based on deteriorating
condition parts are replaced when life is near to finish

who reports to a plant manager
 Maintenance departments are usually split into two
groups:
 Buildings
 Equipment

Maintenance Departments
 Repairs often performed on an emergency basis to:
 Minimize interruptions to production
 Correct unsafe working conditions
 Improve product/service quality
 In emergency situations:
 Specialists may work overtime
 Supervisor/engineers are nearby to collaborate
 Standby machines may be quickly put in operation
Repair Crews and Standby Machines
Engineers Duties

quality and safety
 Keep inventory control: procurement, store
 Follow safety guide lines
 Effort for zero breakdown/failures
 Mobilize resources for faster completion of work
 Prepare Reports
Computer Assistance in Maintenance
 Scheduling maintenance projects

Ensuring maintenance work quality
Efficient maintenance Service
 Work Order Planning and Control
 Efficient and effective maintenance requires detailed planning of repairs,
plant
 services, overhauls and projects.
This work must be co-ordinated with the requirements of production to have
the minimum effect on the overall production plan.
The maintenance plan should be easily modified to allow for major
emergency work, changes in production methods and improvements in
design.
Maintenance control indices can provide a method of assessing
maintenance activities. Control indices should function as part of the overall
maintenance information system and use dynamic data such as labour
costs, spares usage, and delay costs. Analysis of the data provides
feedback that the manager can use to assess actual performance against a
target, and so monitor the effect of changes in maintenance policy.
Efficient maintenance Service
Computerised Maintenance Management System
 A computerised maintenance management system will contain a
number of integrated programs or modules to improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of the maintenance engineering function.
 the system should be easy to use and provide the engineer with all of
the information that is required to make better decisions.
The basic modules or component part of the maintenance systems are :
 Preventive maintenance
 Asset register
 Maintenance stores system
 Purchasing
 Work order planning and control
 Plant history and analysis
Efficient maintenance Service
Asset Register
 This is an inventory of all of the plant, equipment and services for
which a manager has responsibility. Repair work that is generated
by the preventive maintenance system will in most cases need to be
planned and prepared.
 This includes technical details, serial numbers, location,
manufacturer etc. and most important a list of the spare parts used
on the machine together with the current stock balance.
 The purpose of the asset register is to centralise this data for use in
planning
 maintenance work.
 In addition to providing rapid access to information, the manager
can be sure that the relevant data is always available and has not
been misplaced.
Maintenance Records
 History Record:
 When job is done?
 What activities were done?
 When completed?
 How was the machine performance?
 Planning Sheet:
 When next to be done?
 What resources will be required?
 What will be the duration?
Maintenance Records
 Identify the equipments
 Prepare the specs (Number plate details)

Overhaul Management
 Machine needs regular overhaul
 Periodicity is based on experience or on
manufacturers recommendations
 Boiler tubes errosion normally in 2 years
 Burner life is 1 year Boiler Overhaul : every year for 10 days
 Furnace deposition 1 year
 Turbine efficiency drops 0.5%-1% in 5 years
 Turbine blade cracks appear in 5-6 years
 Turbine overhaul : 5years for 45 days
Overhaul Management
 Preparation of resources:
 Engineering Declaration: 12 months advance
 Contract: 3 months in advance
 Spares procurement; 12 months advance
 Shut down planning ; rolling plan
 Mobilization
 Pert Chart activitiy listing
 Allocation of executive team to monitor
 Daily work progress meeting
 Overhaul Execution
PERT & CPM
CPM
What is CPM?
Critical Path Method
What is Critical Path?
CPM is a mathematically based algorithm for scheduling a set of project
activities.

• A list of all activities required to complete the project,

• The dependencies between the activities, and

• The estimate of time (duration) that each activity will take to completion.
The longest time is determined
CPM example
Hang a picture on the wall
 Choose a place on the wall
 Buy the screws
 Choose the picture Drill a hole
 Screw in the screws
 Hang the picture
The actions “drill a hole,” “screw in the screws” and “hang the picture” form a
sequence of tasks that must be performed in a specific order, one right after the
other, to ensure a successful result. Such tasks are called “sequential” activities
CPM
 you cannot start some activities until the
others are finished. These activities need to
be completed in a sequence, with each stage
being more-or-less completed before the next
stage can begin
CPM
The critical path consists of the longest
sequence of activities from project start to
end that should be started and completed
exactly as scheduled to ensure the project is
completed by a certain date in the future
