Selecting the Right Maintenance Method
Step 2 in IDCON’s 3-step process for optimizing Preventive Maintenance is selecting the Maintenance Method .
We break this Step into three segments:
- Function and component
- Failure Modes
- Maintenance Method and essential care task
A few questions to ask:
What is the service function? How does the component work and fail? Does it have a Failure Developing Period? Can I prevent /predict the failure of the component? What tools will be used to measure condition (subjective/objective)?
Asking these questions can help you determine the method. Do you want to learn more about optimizing PM? Contact us today
