Asset Maintenance Strategies

Enlarge

SIMATIC PCS 7 enables you to implement different maintenance strategies depending on whether a response to failures or preventive actions is required.

Corrective maintenance strategies are followed when a fault has occurred, for example failures occurred in this case are minimized by a redundant plant design.

Preventive strategies allow you to complete maintenance measures before faults occur, preventing unplanned downtimes.

Preventive strategies can be implemented by the following three ways:

Time-based measures such as, regular maintenance activities
Condition-based measures which are initiated depending on the degree of wear
Predictive measures which can recognize problems early and provide the you with information on the remaining service
