Classification of maintenance
Generally maintenance is classified into four categories
 Preventive maintenance
 Corrective or Breakdown maintenance
 Scheduled maintenance
 Predictive (Condition-based) maintenance
Some authors prefer three categories- scheduled and
preventive maintenances are merged
 There are also some other types of maintenance; i.e.
 Operational Maintenance
 Reliability Centered Maintenance
 Improvement Maintenance (IM)
 Remedial maintenance

 Remedial maintenance typically involves identifying the

cause of the failure or malfunction, troubleshooting the
issue, and implementing the necessary repairs or
adjustments to rectify the problem.
 This may include replacing faulty components, repairing
damaged parts, recalibrating systems, or making other
necessary modifications to ensure that the equipment or
system can resume its normal operation
 Conte.
 Unlike preventive maintenance, which aims to prevent
failures before they occur through scheduled inspections
and upkeep, remedial maintenance is reactive and is
initiated in response to an existing problem.
 However, effective remedial maintenance practices can
help minimize downtime, reduce costs associated with
repairs, and extend the lifespan of equipment or
infrastructure
 corrective or breakdown maintenance

 Corrective maintenance can be defined as the

maintenance which is required when an item has failed
or worn out, to bring it back to working order.
 Corrective maintenance is carried out on all items
where the consequences of failure or wearing out are
not significant and the cost of this maintenance is much
greater than PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE.
Conte.
Quite justified in small factories where:
 Down times are non-critical and repair costs are less
than other type of maintenance
 Financial justification for scheduling are not felt
Conte.
corrective or breakdown maintenance includes the
following
 Inspection

Comprehensive inspections are conducted to assess the

condition of equipment, identify potential issues, and
determine maintenance requirements.
 Repair and replacement

Any necessary repairs or replacements of worn or faulty

components are carried out to restore equipment to
optimal working condition.
Conte.

 Cleaning and servicing

Equipment is cleaned, lubricated, and serviced to

remove debris, prevent corrosion, and maintain proper
functioning.
 Upgrades and modifications

Upgrades, modifications, or installations of new

equipment or systems may be undertaken to improve
performance, efficiency, or safety standards.
Conte.

 Testing and commissioning

After maintenance activities are completed, equipment

is tested and commissioned to ensure that it meets
operational requirements and safety standards before
resuming normal operations
