15-05: Managing Machinery Assets Using Predictive Maintenance Deposit Control

15-05: Managing Machinery Assets Using Predictive Maintenance Deposit ControlPredictive Maintenance (PdM) can be a key ingredient in the successful implementation of an effective Asset Management program. Not only can it help manage machinery assets but also can result in a significant saving in machine repair costs and lost production due to catastrophic failure and unplanned downtime. However, many companies are reluctant to invest money and personnel in PdM programs because they don't understand how they work, how much they
