Overview
However, in most of the industries, OEM specifications are used to maintain the equipment’s/machineries which are often based on schedules and preventive strategies. It has been observed that equipment’s or machine components are maintained on these schedules even without a need of repair or replacement.
In addition, the stoppages to execute the schedules strategies also increase the production cost and reduce the true potential of the productivity.
Features
- In this Framework For Manufacturing Prognostics PhD research at Cranfield University, a framework for manufacturing prognostics will be proposed to address the mentioned challenge with a focus on manufacturing industries located in Kuwait.
- The framework will connect productivity, cost, equipment workability, and product quality.
- The utilization of near real time equipment inspections and its impact on production will be quantified. The proposed framework validation will be achieved by implementing it on a selected manufacturing sector.
