Identifying availability contribution of lifecycle-adapted services

  • Conference paper
Innovation in Life Cycle Engineering and Sustainable Development

Abstract

Assuring constantly high machine availability is a central challenge for production. Increasingly, manufacturers get involved in respective tasks by taking over warranties on specified availability targets. The compliance with a specified availability target can be accomplished by a suitable configuration of additional equipment elements in line with product-accompanying services. However, varying boundary conditions across the machine life require an adaptation of these additional measures, especially of the services. The article presents a method for planning a lifecycle-adapted service configuration in order to achieve availability targets at lowest cost. It focuses on the measurement of availability contribution.
