On condition-based maintenance for machine components
(2014)Department of Automatic Control
- Abstract
- The goal of condition-based maintenance (CBM) is to base the decisions whether or not to perform maintenance on information collected from the machine or component of interest. A condition-based maintenance tool should be able to diagnose if the component of interest is in a state of failure but the ultimate goal of a CBM tool is to be able to estimate time until failure, either in terms of remaining useful life (RUL) or estimated time to failure (ETTF). Therefore a CBM tool should have both diagnostic and prognostic features.
This master’s thesis was carried out at a company within the packaging industry and the goal was to implement a CBM tool with the possibility to estimate RUL for a set of critical components which could serve as a...

Therefore a CBM tool should have both diagnostic and prognostic features.
This master’s thesis was carried out at a company within the packaging industry and the goal was to implement a CBM tool with the possibility to estimate RUL for a set of critical components which could serve as a base for further development within the company. The selection of components to focus on was part of the thesis as well.
The process of implementing CBM with prognostic functionality was more difficult than expected and the goal of estimating RUL was not met for any of the components, but the work that has been done forms a basis for further development. Thus, this thesis will serve as a pre-study on developing CBM and contains information of what is required in order to be successful. (Less)
