Success of manufacturing companies largely depends on reliability their products. Scheduled maintenance is widely used to ensure that equipment operating correctly so as avoid unexpected breakdowns. Such often carried out separately for every component, based its usage or simply some fixed schedule. However, scheduled labor-intensive and ineffective in identifying problems develop between technician's visits. Unforeseen failures still frequently occur. In contrast, predictive techniques help determine the condition in-service order predict when what repairs should be performed. The main goal enable pro-active scheduling corrective work, thus prevent failures.
