Calculating the savings by predictive maintenance allows us to justify all the investments in technology, services and personnel. It also serves as the foundation to calculate the ROI (Return or Investment) of condition-based maintenance.

In this article, we will explain in a simple way how to calculate the direct savings generated by predictive maintenance to be able to justify investments, gain visibility in the company (or client) and quantify the value that is contributed to the company.

Calcular los ahorros por mantenimiento predictivo nos permite justificar todas tus inversiones en tecnología, servicios y personal. Igualmente, nos sirve de base para  calcular el ROI (Return On Investment) del mantenimiento basado en la condición.

En este artículo, vamos a explicar de forma sencilla cómo calcular los ahorros directos generados por mantenimiento predictivo para poder justificar inversiones, ganar visibilidad en la empresa y cuantificar el valor que se aporta a la empresa.

What is a Gearbox?

A gearbox is a kind of container for integrated and synchronized gear trains. In the operational sense, a gearbox is a machine component with the ability to change speed and torque between a driving device and a driven device, for example, between a motor and a coupled load. Gearboxes are also used to change the direction of rotation and the direction of the drive shaft. The mechanical components that enable these functions are called gears, and within gearbox terminology, there are different types.

The P-F Curve is a graphical model to visualize the condition of an asset with respect to time. It is useful in explaining the concept of condition-based maintenance and other related concepts.

The P-F Curve represents a relationship between the asset condition and time. It can be seen in the model that at the start of a failure, the asset condition begins to decrease until it reaches the functional failure (F). The general goal of asset inspections in a predictive maintenance plan is to detect condition deterioration before the asset reaches its functional failure.

La curva P-F es un modelo gráfico para visualizar la condición de un activo respecto al tiempo. Es útil para explicar el concepto del mantenimiento basado en la condición y otros conceptos relacionados.
