Abstract
The intensifying complexity in the modeling and construction of production facilities and the accumulative degree of automation has increased the importance of refining the technical process of system availability and reliability. This study investigates the impact of preventative maintenance strategy on production system reliability indicators. The study reviewed production data of 744 hours, consisting of different production stoppages. Using reliability indicators obtained through literature, the performance and availability of the system were measured. The findings revealed that an excessive number of stoppages hamper system availability and productivity.
