Abstract (Original Language):
Prevention of potential failure is required for reliable and safe operations of machineries
and the prevention of catastrophic failure can be done by appropriate maintenance.
Preventive maintenance (PM) is the practice of maintaining equipment on a regular
schedule based on elapsed time or meter readings. The intent of PM is to “prevent”
maintenance problems or failures before they take place by following routine and
comprehensive maintenance procedures. The goal is to achieve fewer, shorter, and more
predictable outages. A Schedule or Preventive maintenance is the best suitable technique
to avoid unwanted futuristic failures through condition monitoring or signature analysis
for rotating machineries. The main reason for setting up a preventive maintenance
program is to prevent unscheduled outages from failure of equipment. Depending on the
circumstances, an unscheduled outage will be, at least, very inconvenient and can be
extremely expensive.
