MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

Emergency Maintenance
Preventative Maintenance
CLASS EXERCISE - EMERGENCY STAND-BY CAPACITY
 A production line has 20 electric resistance welders
 It costs $40 per day to won each welder
 If one or two welders are down, replacement spares can be rented at $50 per day per
machine
 If 3,4, or 5 welders are out, they can be rented but production slow downs result and
the total cost is $100 per day per extra machine (rental + slow down)
 If 6 or more machines are out, the total cost (rental + slow down) is $500 per day per
extra machine
Objective: Calculate how many spare welders need to be purchased by your company to
minimize the total operating costs.

We have a line with 50 robot GMA welders
The cost to do a preventative maintenance overhaul
on each machine is $200/machine
Average breakdown repair costs are $700/machine
Objective: Calculate the cost if we elect to repair only
when a machine breaks down. How much must we set
aside each month?
Probability of
Breakdown as a
function of months
after overhaul of all
machines.
They Add to 100%
1.00
The months time the
probability results in
the partial expected
time for failure.
Since the partial
probabilities add to
100%, the partial times
add to the expect time
for a failure = 8.42
months
The cost of repair-on-breakdown then =
($700/machine) /(8.42 months) * 50 machines
= $4157/month
Thus, we better place $4157 in a fund every
month if we decide to do repair-onbreakdown policy.

The cost to do a preventative maintenance overhaul
on each machine is $200/machine
Average breakdown repair costs are $700/machine
Objective: Calculate if preventative maintenance
should be done and if so what the schedule should be.
Calculate Cost for Preventative
Maintenance
For every preventative maintenance overhaul we do it
will cost:
= $200/machine * 50 machines = $10,000
If we do a preventative maintenance every month, it will
cost $10,000/month
If we do a preventative maintenance every 2 months, it
will cost $5,000/month, etc.
Even though we do preventative maintenance, we
can expect some breakdowns to occur anyway.
We can calculate the number of expected
breakdowns each month using the following
equation.

P
Bn  N
n
 Bn1P1  Bn2 P2  ......B1Pn1

Where:
Bn = expected number of breakdowns
N = number of machines
Pn = probability of machine
breakdown in period n
B1  NP1  50(0.05)  2.50
 That is, 2.5 breakdowns in the
first month
B2  N(P1  P2 )  B1P1  50(.05  .02)  2.50(.05)  3.63
 That is, 3.63 breakdown in first 2
months
Expected Cost = Ave. Number * $700/machine = 2.5 * $700 = $1750
Total Cost = Expected Cost + Prev. Maint. Cost = 1750 + 10000 = 11750
