Today, maintenance exceeds this definition, it is significantly more.
In many companies, it plays the role of an incubator for development
and drives digital transformation forward. The very essence of
Industrie 4.0 is the optimisation of the flow of information within as
well as outside of a company to accelerate the adjustment of company
organisations in the context of increasing competitive pressure.
Because of the variety of interfaces, information and data that
is available as well as its service character, maintenance lends itself easily as the area of choice for a company to make Industrie 4.0 real. Whilst doing so, the aim is not to equip employees with the
latest “gimmick“ for order processment or to be the company with
the highest number of lighthouse projects. Instead, maintenance
ensures reliable and cost-efficient production and, consequently,
the primary creation of added value of the manufacturing company.
Those who were identified as top performers during the “Smart
Maintenance“ consortium benchmarking by FIR at RWTH Aachen
University gain particular useful ideas twice as often as other follower companies directly from staff, thus releasing the right potential.
Information and data help to reach these goals and transfer the
vision of smart maintenance into actual pratice. But what is smart
maintenance exactly and how far along are you in the development
of your individual smart maintenance concept?
In order to cope with the challenges of an increased demand for flexibility, quality and availability of production, maintenance measures provide a major competiveness factor for manufacturing companies. Yet, interdependencies between maintenance and production activities as well as differing target systems within the functional units of an enterprise, especially production and maintenance, raise needs for extended coordination efforts. This paper aims to develop an innovative approach for the coordination between maintenance and production activities for industrial production companies. To achieve this, the novel coordination mechanism is used. It helps to achieve maximised operational availability— for a maximised output of the production system at optimal costs. Based on the developed model, the present paper identifies findings regarding the impact of different maintenance strategies on the medium-term economic efficiency of the production system.
Erfolgsprinzipien der Smart Maintenance – Was wir von den Besten aus der Praxis lernen können
(2019)
Der Industriestandort Deutschland befindet sich im Wandel. Neue, digitale Technologien ermöglichen es, Betriebs-, Zustands- und Ereignisdaten in stetig steigender Menge zu erfassen, aufzubereiten, zu analysieren und für die industrielle Anwendung nutzbar zu machen. Dieser Nutzen zeichnet sich durch die Beschleunigung der unternehmerischen Entscheidungs- und Anpassungsprozesse aus und stellen damit das eigentliche Potenzial von ‚Industrie 4.0‘ dar. An dieser Stelle stehen Unternehmen heute vor der Herausforderung, die Transformation zur Smart Maintenance effektiv und effizient zu gestalten. Zu häufig neigen Unternehmen dazu, „das Rad wiederkehrend neu zu erfinden“, da Praxiseinblicke über die eigenen Standort- und Unternehmensgrenzen hinweg fehlen. Um eben jene benötigten Praxiseinblicke und Erfahrungswerte liefern zu können, wurde am FIR an der RWTH Aachen gemeinsam mit sechs Industriepartnern sowie dem Fraunhofer IML aus Dortmund das „Konsortial-Benchmarking Smart Maintenance“ durchgeführt. Anhand eines eigenen Ordnungsrahmens wurden zentrale Fragestellungen der Smart Maintenance identifiziert und mittels Fragebogenstudie untersucht. Durch die angeknüpfte statistische Auswertung konnte zwischen sogenannten ‚Top-Performern‘ (TP) und ‚Followern‘ (FL) unterschieden werden. In diesem Beitrag werden ausgewählte Ergebnisse der Studie sowie der Interviews den Ebenen des Ordnungsrahmens folgend vorgestellt.
