flow1

MTBF - Mean Time Between all Failures prediction

FMECA - Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis: shows critical failures of the system

Testability - Calculating % of failures detected and isolated with built-in tests: shows the efficiency of BIT system

RBD - Reliability Block Diagram: Failure time distributions and Mean Time Between Critical Failures regarding redundancy models

Safety - Considers interaction between Equipment Under Control and Safety Related System; calculates safety parameters including Safety Integrity Level and Risk.  

FTA - Fault Tree Analysis: all failure events, their causes and effects in one tree

apmOPT - maintenance optimization manager: can import all results of System analysis

LCC 1 - Life Cycle Cost before optimization

Performance 1 - Estimates output of all products per time units before optimization regarding the system failures and maintenance down time. 

ORLA - Optimal Repair Level Analysis: repair / discard decisions, repair and stocks location optimization

PMO - Preventive Maintenance Optimization: recommends optimal PM schedule for all degraded parts providing required reliability parameters by minimum total cost and damage.

PIO - Periodical Inspections Optimization: recommends optimal inspections schedule for gradual and sudden failures providing required reliability parameters by minimum total cost and damage.

S2A - Sparing To Availability optimization: recommends optimal spares in all stocks providing the given system availability

R2A - Resources To Availability optimization: maintenance personnel, support equipment and facility providing the system availability

LCC 2 - Life Cycle Cost after optimization

Performance 2 - Estimates output of all products per time units after optimization regarding the system failures and maintenance down time. 

System and maintenance improving - implemented recommendations of System and Maintenance analyses

ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning system of the user

 

CAFDE - Computer Aided Field Data Engineering system: collects and imports failure and maintenance records, estimates MTBF, failure time distributions and MTBF growth due to system and maintenance improvement.
