Reduced Downtime
Implementation of equipment condition monitoring will enable us to predict equipment failure where maintenance can be performed at suitable time and therefore minimize unexpected breakdown.
Predictive Maintenance
Predictive maintenance techniques are designed to use condition monitoring tool to determine the health status / condition of machine in order to estimate when maintenance should be performed.
Benefits of Predictive Maintainance
Cost Savings
Avoid high cost due to reactive maintenance and preventive maintenance (over-maintenance). Able to allocate resources (labour) for other tasks more efficiently.
Improved Equipment Lifespan
Timely maintenance and early detection of equipment potential failure can extend the life of machinery.
Improved Energy Efficiency
Avoid high energy consumption by making sure that equipment running at optimal condition which could help to reduce GHG. Potential defects will lead to unnecessary energy wastage.
Better Maintenance Planning
Early detection of failure allows maintenance activities to be scheduled more effectively threfore minimize distruption to production.
Improved Level of Safety
Equipment failure can lead to safety risks such as loss of life and catastrophic damaged.

Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is regular, planned maintenance scheduled according to usage or time-based triggers. The purpose of PM is to lessen the likelihood of equipment failure and unplanned machine downtime.
Corrective Maintenance
Corrective maintenance is any task that corrects a problem with an asset and returns it to proper working order. Corrective maintenance tasks can be both planned and unplanned.
