Power consumption driven Reliability, Operation and Maintenance optimisation (POWER-OM)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2015,
The normal strategy to keep production systems in good conditions is to apply preventive maintenance practices, with a supportive workforce “reactive” in the case of clearly detected malfunctions. This impact on quality, cost and in general, productivity. Added to this, the uncertainty of machine reliability at any given time, also impacts on product/production delivery times. It is known also tha ...
