16 Ways To Save Time And Money On Preventive Maintenance
This eBook explores the hidden costs and risks of over-relying on preventive maintenanceTime or cycle-based actions performed to prevent system functional failure. This proactive maintenance type generally includes scheduled restoration and scheduled discard tasks. Learn more: What is Preventive Maintenance? in industrial environments. It provides practical guidance on how to evaluate, optimize, and rebalance maintenance strategies to improve reliability and reduce unnecessary work. Ideal for teams looking to move beyond time-based maintenance toward smarter, data-driven approaches.
What’s Inside
- How excessive preventive maintenance impacts cost, reliability, and labor utilization
- Common signs your PM program is overbuilt or ineffective
- A framework for evaluating and optimizing existing PMPreventive Maintenance tasks
- The role of condition-based and predictive maintenanceThe use of instruments and analysis to determine equipment condition in order to predict failure before it takes place so corrective maintenance can be done in a planned and scheduled fashion. Examples include vibration analysis, oil analysis, thermography, airborne ultrasonic’s, NDT, motor current signature analysis, trending of process parameters, etc. in reducing PM overload
Ideal for: maintenance managers, reliability engineers, and asset management teams seeking to optimize maintenance strategies and reduce inefficiencies.
