Different Characteristics

A maintenance program generated through the consideration of characteristics and failures of medical equipment is an important component of technology management. However, older technology devices and newer high-tech devices cannot be efficiently managed using the same strategies because of their different characteristics. This study aimed to generate a maintenance program comprising two different strategies to increase the efficiency of device management: preventive maintenance for older technology devices and predictive maintenance for newer high-tech devices. For preventive maintenance development, 589 older technology devices were subjected to performance verification and safety testing (PVST). For predictive maintenance development, the manufacturers’ recommendations were used for 134 high-tech devices. These strategies were evaluated in terms of device reliability. This study recommends the use of two different maintenance strategies for old and new devices at hospitals in developing countries. Thus, older technology devices that applied only corrective maintenance will be included in maintenance like high-tech devices.

The paper presents results of analysis of the dynamic behavior of rotating mechanisms and couplings of the main structure of a kinematic chain sharpening machine precision Cugir normal UAS 200. The ultimate goal is to establish diagnostic and maintenance program the car UAS 200. Diagnosis by measurement of vibration and noise, allow a company to monitor faults and machines and equipment, through a system of preventive maintenance, predictive. Diagnosis automatic machinery and equipment is made in order to ensure a higher reliability of these and how to obtain a more extended life cycle without the occurrence of defects. The application of preventive and predictive maintenance management supports enterprise, because it proves effective, the information you provide in making decisions.

Predictive maintenance has gained wide acceptance as a cost cutting strategy and improve maintenance in modern industry. Condition monitoring by lubricant analysis is one of the basic tools of a predictive maintenance program along with vibration monitoring, performance monitoring and thermography. In many cases, it enables identification of a potential problem before a major repair is necessary and downtime during critical operations can be avoided.In this paper we analyzed the used motor oil and its remaining resource in agricultural machines.
