Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to find out the maintenance strategy for vital machines in a tea industry. Firstly various failure modes and the potential causes and effects of failure are identified using failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA).Risk priority number of failure modes are calculated. VED analysis is combined with FMEA in order to find out vital machines with very high RPN number. Maintenance plan for each of the vital machines are find out using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and VIKOR, and Preventive maintenance interval is scheduled using Monte Carlo simulation.
