Abstract

Reliability optimization is a process aimed at improving the effectiveness and efficiency of maintenance activities within an organization. This optimization can concern various aspects, including failure prevention, resource management, cost reduction, and improving the operational availability of equipment. In this work, our study aims to implement a comprehensive maintenance strategy for the 1600T press at Algal $+$ company with the primary objectives of preventing breakdowns, minimizing unplanned downtime, optimizing productivity, extending the lifespan of equipment, ensuring safety, and improving the competitiveness and profitability of the company. The problem of reliability and availability of the 1600T press at the Algal $+$ company can be addressed by a systematic approach to industrial maintenance. By adopting a holistic approach to industrial maintenance, Algal $+$ company can improve the reliability and availability of its equipment, thereby reducing unplanned downtime and optimizing overall productivity. By systematically applying FMECA to the 1600T press, the optimization efforts become data-driven and focused on addressing the most critical risks. This, in turn, significantly contributes to optimizing the reliability and availability of the equipment, reducing unplanned downtime, and enhancing overall operational efficiency.
