Q

What is servitization?

A
  • Creating value by shiftingfrom selling products to providing product-services
  • A ”product-service” is a mix of tangible products and intangible services that jointlyfulfils customer needs
  • A ”product-service system” (PSS) is the organizational structurethat provides the product-service to customers.

Q

What are the two main trends for servitization?

A
  1. From Ownership to accessibility
    The customer view:
    1. Value increasingly associated to the use of product, as opposed to ownership
    2. Product Technologies require increasingly specialized know-how
      1. Maintenance = business
  2. Transfer of responsibility
    1. Responsibility of products increasingly retained with manufacturer.

Q

What are the implications of servitization for industry?

A
  • Use focus increase the importance of customer relationship through life
    • Availability of product functionality increase in importance
  • Increased ownership after produced come with risk and opportunity
    • Risk? Revenue from ”spare parts sales”
    • Opportunity?: maintain relationship with customer, and better control of ones technologies in the ”field” through lifecycle of product.

Q

What consequences has the shift of the product ownership for the manufactureres?

A
  • Shifting to servitization impact
    • Business models- the way to offer solutions and ensure revenue
  • Shifting preferences and behaviour of users
    • Creates, and threatens, established products and business models, the changes is difficult to foresee which leads to that new risks appear
  • Obsolescence
    • Technology in products have largely different life cycles
      • New electronic production life, 4-7 years
        • Advanced products comprise of a mix if HW (hardware), SW (software) and electronics- services need to ensure functionality (upgrades, maintenance etc.)
      • Expected machine life, 25-30 years
        • Incentive for manufacturers to retain ownership through life

Q

What is a product- service system (PSS)? and which three is the common types?

A

”Product Service Systems, put simply, are when a firm offers a mix of both product and services, in comparison to the tranditional focus on products”

  • Product- oriented PSS
    Ownership of the tangible product is transferred from the manufacturer to the customer (sold), while included in the original act of sale are additional services (e.g. maintenance, repair, re-use, recycling, training, consulting, etc.)
  • Use-oriented PSS
    Ownership of the tangible product is retained by the service provider. Functions of the product are sold via modifies distribution and payment systems. E.g. carpooling, enables drivers to offer the available seats in the car. Renting a car.
  • Result- oriented PSS
    Selling the result or capacity instead of a product. The producer maintains ownership pf the product and the customer pays only for the provision of agreed results. E.g.

Q

What are the implications for manufacturers when having PSS?

A

Retained ownership of products

  • Increased responsibility through product life
    • May have a high economics impact and risk
  • Possibilities for re-manufacturing
    • Opening for ”smart” and ”circular” business
    • Where and how to remanufacture? Logistics, Design,..?
  • Changed revenue-streams
    • ”spare parts sales” not a good source of revenue
  • Opportunities for technology changes post-manufacturing
    • Can replace systematically obsolete or poor technologies
    • Can extent life through technology replacement and upgrades

Q

What is the Failure mode and effect analysis, FMEA?

A

FMEA evaluate the ways equipment can fail or be improperly operated and the effects these failures can have. In a FMEA, each individual failure is considered as an independent occurrence with no relation to other failures in the system. In short, FMEA identify single failure modes that either directly result in or contribute significantly to an accident.

Q

What is the Risk priority number, RPN?

A

RPN is calculated as the product of severity, occurrence and detection. Since each of the factors in the range of 1-10, we have; 1<=RPN <=1000. The RPN is a basis for prioritization. High values indicate where action should be initiated. Low values should also examine whether any of these factors has a value of nine or ten. This is especially true if the failure probability or severity is high.

  • Engineering
  • Health, safety and environment
42
Q

What is the cocept of depandability containing ?

A
  • Reliability
  • Maintainability
  • Maintenance support
43
Q

What is the definition of dependability?

A

A collective term used to describe the availability performance and its influencing factors: reliability performance, maintainability performance and maintenance support performance.

44
Q

What is the defintition of reliability?

A

Reliability is the ability of an item to perform a required function under given conditions for a given time interval. Reliability may also be defined as a probability that an equipment will perform its intended function without failure for a specific time under defined conditions. MTTF, MTBF

45
Q

What is the definition of maintainability?

A

Maintainability is the ability of an item under given conditions of use, to be retained in, or restored to, a state in which it can perform a required function, when maintenance is performed under given conditions and using stated procedures and resources. (Also used as a measure of maintainability performance and the time characteristic of maintainability is the active maintenance time). MTTR

46
Q

What is the definition of maintenace supportability?

A

The ability of having the right maintenance support at the necessary place to perform the required, maintenance activity at a given instant of time or during a given time interval. Maintenance support is the resources, service and management to perform a maintenance action. MTW

47
Q

What is inherent reliability?

A

The inherent reliability if a plant, system or device is the maximum achievable reliability based on configuration and component selection. If operated correctly, maintained correctly and inspected on appropriate intervals, it will be possible to attain the full inherent reliability If poor operated, poorly maintained or allowed to develop and retain defects, the reliability can be significantly less than the inherent reliability.

The reliability Management Process and the Maintenance Excellence Process go hand-in-hand. If maintenance work management processes are not done in manner that restores the inherent reliability, the reliability performance will continually degrade. If the reliability process is not working to provide an acceptable level of reliability, the maintenance processes will end up ”chasing-their-tail”, dealing with too-frequent and unexpected breakdowns.

48
Q

What is the path of failure?

A

The value of understanding the path of failure is knowing that both the failure mechanism and the defect can be discovered before failure, and that the failure can be prevented. Wise people also learn from failures, and they identify the three levels of cause in time to take corrective action.

In order o create Predictive Maintenance tasks, you need to understand the failure mechanism that ”are” at work and those that ”can be” at work. That is an important point to emphasize. Many people simply copy the PM tasks recommended by the manufacturer, and then perform them by rote without really understanding why they are doing them.

Predictive Maintenancetasks are intended to:

  1. Evaluate failure mechanisms that are known to be at work
  2. Identify failure mechanisms that can be at work
49
Q

What are the aim for failure analysis?

A

Find, assess, reduce and eliminate both causes and effects for failure. Use weibull distribution to determine the probability of failure.

50
Q

What is the bath-tub curve?

A
51
Q

In the bath-tube curve what is the infant mortaility failure period?

A

In the early life, an item population exhibits a high failure rate, due mainly to manufacturing weakness, including; poor joints and connections, damaged components, chemical impurities, dirt and contamination and assembly errors.

52
Q

In the bath-tube curve what is the useful life failure period?

A

The failure rate remains substantially constant, and, although some failures may still arise from manufacturing weakness or wear-out, the majority of failures are caused by the opening stress to which the item is subject in its particular application (e.g. temperature, electrical and environmental stresses) and occur randomly (without any time-dependent pattern). During this period, when the failure rate is considered to be constant, the negative exponential distribution descries the time to failure.

The period is the interval of the most interest from a reliability prediction standpoint because, if a rigorous reliability programme is applied throughout a project lifetime, is its assumed that:

  • The majority of early life failures will normally be eliminated before an item enters service
  • An in-service maintenance policy will ensure that item are replaced before wear out becomes a significant problem.
53
Q

In the bath-tube curve what is the wear-out failure period?

A

During the wear-out failure period, the failure rate increases due mainly to deterioration of the item though prolonged expose to operating and environmental stresses, which may include; insulation breakdown, wear of fatigue, corrosion or oxidation. Normally, wear out failures are avoided by replacing an item, either on the basis of fixed life replacement or on-condition monitoring. Even so, eventually the system become troublesome in use and is probably best replaced.

54
Q

What is the exponential distrubution?

A
  • Simples of all the life models
  • One parameter, landa
  • PDF, f(t) =landa*e^(-landa*t)
  • CDF, F(t) = 1- e^(landa*t) and R(t) = e^(landa*t)
  • Hazard function,h(t)=landa i.e. constant
  • MTBF = 1/ and failure rate = landa
  • 1/ is the 63 rd percentile i.e. time at which 63% of population will have failed
  • Hazard function: constant line, Survival function, exponential decreasing
55
Q

What is the weibull distrubution?

A
  • Most useful lifetime in reliability analysis
  • 2 parameter weibull; shape beta, and scale n
  • When beta<1 decresing hazard function
  • When beta>1 increasing hazard function
  • When beta=1 constant hazard function
  • n is the characteristic life, 63 rd percentile
56
Q

What is the probability plotting and assumptions?

A
  • Graphical estimation method
  • Based on cumulative distribution function CDF –F(t)
  • Probability papers for parametric distributions, e.g. Weibull
  • Axis is transformed so that the true CDF plots as a straight line
  • If plotted data fits a straight line hen the data fits the appropriate distribution
  • Parameter estimation ‘

Assumptions:

  • Data most be independently identically distributed (IID), no casual relationship, no trend, same distribution
  • Non-repaired items
  • Repaired items with no trend in the time between failures
57
Q

What is the maintenance concepts?

Q

What is the Reliability- centered maintenance (RCM)?

A

From aviation industry. Questioned why and how maintenance should be done. Maintenance so expensive because of the effect according to the bathtub curve.

According to RCM: Do only what must be done and reduce unnecessary maintenance Reliability is out in the centre. 4 basic features of RCM:

  1. Preserve functions
  2. Identify failure modes that can defeat the function
  3. Prioritize function need
  4. Select applicable and effective PM tasks for high priority failure modes.

Applicable = if the task is performed, it will accomplish one of three reasons for preventive maintenance (prevent or mitigate failure, detect one set of a failure, discover hidden failure)

Effective = we are willing to spend the resources to do it

62
Q

What dicitions can you take based on the wear out curves?

A

  2. In what ways does it fail to fulfil its function?
  3. What causes each functional failure?
  4. What happens when each failure occurs?
  5. In what way does each failure matter?
  6. What can be done o predict or prevent each failure?
  7. What should be done if the suitable proactive task cannot be found?
64
Q

What are the advantages and disadvantages with RCM?

A

Advantages

65
Q

What is Condition based maintenance (CBM)? and the advantages and disadvantages?

A

Monitor system performance, system health root causes of failures, forecasting remaining useful life. CBM unitizes Condition Monitoring, e.g. in production equipment’s; vibration, thermography, oil analysis and ultrasonic. Is not only about sensors.

  1. Diagnostics = Finding the fault after occurring, or in the process of the fault occurring (fault not equal to failure)
  2. Prognostics = Predicting future failures by analysing current and previous history.

PF curve- the heart of CBM, describes equipment’s failure behaviour.

Advantages:

  • Prevents failures
  • Prevents unnecessary preventive maintenance
  • Very useful in critical equipment

Disadvantages:

  • Expensive monitoring equipment’s (but this is changing rapidly)
  • No failure elimination
