Description
Summary:The application of preventive maintenance contributes significantly to providing the required level of readiness of complex technical systems used in organizations of special purpose. The basic requirement in applying this model of maintenance is to determine the optimal periodicity that should satisfy some mutually conflicting criteria. This paper presents a methodology for determining the periodicity of the preventive maintenance of V46-6 engines on the basis of collecting and processing statistical data about their malfunctions. This problem can be solved if all important requests and limitations are determined. The basis of the presented methodology is the reliability parameters of the analyzed engine, obtained by observing the engine behavior, from the aspect of occurrence of failure in real service conditions, and also its maintenance costs.
