During and after world war two at the time when the advances of engineering and scientific

technology developed, people developed other types of maintenance which were more cheaper
such as preventive maintenance . in addition people in this era classified maintenance as function
of the production system

CONCEPTS AND IMPORTANCE OF INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE

Service: Is the utility that a device a physical and moral person provides to satisfy need

Quality of service: is understood as a degree of satisfaction of a need trough the provision of a


service, there are two: one who gives the service, and the one who receives it.

Maintenance: is the human activity whose function is to preserve the quality of the services

Importance: the useful life of equipment and parts depend on the operation time, environment,
work cycles, overloads and maintenances, this is the reason because is very important to establish
a maintenance program, to assure the optimal operation.

Source of failure: 1) the machine itself. 2) Environment. 3) Personal.4) animals .5) poor quality of
material

Conservation: is a human action that through the application scientific and technological
knowledge contributes to the optimal use of existing resource in the human habitat promoting
integral development

Conservation : is divided in two main branches

1. Preservation: it takes care of the needs of the physical resources


2. Maintenances: which is responsible of take care the service that the resource provides

Policies for the maintenance :

1. The service provided by the equipment has priority over all maintenance task
2. There should be constant verification test as a whole
3. Test and verification must be done on the behavior of the equipment to verify that they
can work even In situation of compromise
4. Any intervention in a equipment , machinery or installation must be based on a diagnostic
5. For preventive maintenance work should be used personal with mentality and manual
6. Any diagnostic must be based on thorough testing and analysis

To achieve these goals the company needs to have an organizational chart

Machinery monitoring

Monitoring is the machines that operates in industrial processes is a fundamental part of


maintenance, during monitoring many problems can be determined
One of the most common problems is the vibration

VIBRATION ANALYSIS

In the machines the vibration can be generated by : lack of lubrication in the pieces , natural wear
of the parts in rotation , mismatches , unbalance.

Vibration: it is a periodical movement than repeats itself with all its characteristics after a certain
interval of time called period

Classification:

Periodic: the time of a cycle is the same of the following cycles this may be:

- Harmonic periodic.
- Non- harmonic periodic
- None periodic

Types of vibration systems:

- Free vibration system without damping


- Free vibration system with damping
- Forced vibration system without damping
- Forced vibration system with damping

The systems can be made by masses , springs and shock absorbers and can be subjected to a
force

Free vibration system without damping: this system is of one degree of freedom and is formed by
a spring, mass, and must be limited by guides

Free vibration system with damping: this system is of one degree of freedom and is formed by a
spring, mass and a shock absorber , this system must be limited by guides
