Abstract:
Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) started a new chapter in the history of preventive maintenance strategy setting. It was now possible to develop a scientifically based, highly successful maintenance program for complex systems. It developed as a result of the reliability problems and cost of maintenance of aircraft during the late 50’s and early 60’s. The result was a methodology called MSG-1, followed by the improved MSG-2. When MSG-2 was used contractually for the United States Department of Defence, it led to the present definition of RCM. In academic circles there developed a growing dissatisfaction with the technique [Pintelon et al (1999], of which part stems from watering down its scientific basis to make RCM more marketable [Moubray (2000)], while at least part is based on perceived inherent scientific weaknesses in the methodology itself. This thesis, in setting out to solve these limitations, makes several important contributions to the RCM methodology. The first of these is a method of concentrating the RCM analysis effort on the most important failure modes encountered by the organisation. Secondly, it introduces a Quality Improvement task in the RCM task selection tree, based on a limitation identified by Harris (1985). The third contribution is the addition of a formal task packaging methodology, following Gits (1984). The thesisalso combines the use of RCM for the most important failure modes with conventional maintenance tasks for the remaining failure modes, to form a total methodology for the typical industrial concern. It furthermore introduces the application of sound management principles in the implementation of RCM and lastly, blends concepts from different RCM authors, together with the innovations listed above, into one logical whole. In summary, the proposed revised methodology can play a very important part to achieve the goal of World Class manufacturing standards, including ensuring that the organisation’s maintenance effort is as proactive as possible.

Abstract:
Maintenance has had a tremendous impact on company’s proficiency to optimize its production system in order to meet its long term objectives. Generally, a production system in which maintenance is not given attention may easily lead to the system producing defective product as a result of machine defect. The purpose of this thesis is to utilized tools and methods to analyze the impact of maintenance implementation in a production system. The analytical Hierarchy process was utilized to filter the defining factors and sub-factors considered to be related to the life length and performance of production equipment in the research which was carried out at SCA Packaging Sweden AB. Various cost associated with these factors were analyzed using the cost breakdown structure, an element of life cycle cost analysis. Finally, economic evaluation of the filtered factors was performed to show the benefits associated with implementing maintenance. The result shows that while investment on maintenance implementation might be a cost at the earlier stage of implementation because it is hard to measure and follow up its impact on company’s business. Nevertheless, its role in improving company productivity profitability is indispensable. Thus, maintenance is a profit centre rather than a cost centre.

Abstract:
The organisation of maintenance, in the Aseptic Liquid Food (ALF) industry, represents an important management task that enables a company to pursue higher manufacturing effectiveness and improved market share. This research is concerned with the process to design and implement maintenance tasks. These two complementary processes (design and implementation) have been thought and designed to answer the particular needs of food industry regarding product safety and equipment reliability. Numerous maintenance engineering researchers have focused on maintenance engineering and reliability techniques highlighting the contribution of maintenance in achieving world class manufacturing and competitive advantage. Their outcome emphasizes that maintenance is not a “necessary evil” because of costs associated, but it can be considered an “investment” that produces an added value which generates a real company profit. The existing maintenance engineering techniques pursue equipment reliability at minimum cost; but in food industry, food safety represents the most critical issue to address and solve. The research methodology chosen is based on case studies coming from ALF industries. These show that low maintenance effectiveness could have dramatic effects on final consumers and on the company’s image and underline the need of a maintenance design and implementation process that takes into consideration all critical factors relevant to liquid food industry. The analysis of measurable indicators available, represents a tool necessary to show the status of critical performance indicators and reveals the urgency of a research necessary to address and solve the maintenance problems in food industry. The literature review underlines the increasing regulations in place in food industry and that no literature is available to define a maintenance design and implementation process for ALF and in general for food industry. The literature review enabled also the gap existing between theory and real maintenance status, in the ALF, to be identified and the aim of the research was to explore this gap. The analysis of case studies and Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) available highlights the problem and the literature review provides the knowledge necessary to identify the process to design and implement maintenance procedures for ALF industry. The research findings provide a useful guide to identify the process to design maintenance tasks able to put under control food safety and equipment reliability issues. Company’s restraining forces and cultural inertia, that work against new maintenance procedures, have been analysed and a maintenance implementation process have been designed to avoid losing the benefits produced by the design phase. The analysis of condition monitoring systems shows devices and techniques useful to improve product safety, equipment reliability, and then maintenance effectiveness. This research aimed to fill the gap in the existing literature showing the solution to manage both food safety and production effectiveness issues in food industry. It identifies a maintenance design process able to capture all conceivable critical factors in food industry and to provide the solution to design reliable task lists. Furthermore, the maintenance implementation process shows the way to maximize the maintenance design outcome through the empowerment of equipment operators and close cooperation with maintenance and quality specialists. The new maintenance design and implementation process represents the answer to the research problem and a reliable solution that allows the food industry to improve food safety and production effectiveness.

Abstract:
Production Line Systems (PLS) are ubiquitous in today’s manufacturing industry. The need for enhanced efficiencies and higher throughput in such systems has increased their complexity and size that has made performance analysis challenging for practitioners. This thesis introduces a novel approach based on Product Service System (PSS) design and analysis which simplifies Production Line System study and identifies opportunities for performance improvement that can be quantified based on the hardware and maintenance system performance. The approach involves modelling and simulation techniques based on reliability engineering principles and systems thinking. In order to apply the principles of PSS approach to PLS, it is essential to draw a comparison between PLS and PSS, so as to take account of the differences while applying the new approach; a literature review has been carried out on PSS Design and Analysis, that identified the state of the art modelling and simulation techniques in PSS. Additionally, a separate literature review on maintenance system and production line was carried out. This enabled the PSS methodology to be applied to PLS by incorporating the differences. A systems thinking approach has been employed to create the static simulation model of the integrated production line system by means of schematic representations. Key improvement areas, identified from the static simulation model have been modelled dynamically to incorporate the stochastic behaviour of the system. All the dynamic models are developed using a Discrete Event Simulation platform. These models were supported by Monte Carlo Simulation, queuing principles, probabilistical and statistical methods pertinent to reliability engineering. The novel integrated simulation model consists of a production line model and a maintenance system model. The production line model simulates two types of failures in addition to the outages in the system: breakdowns and short stops. The maintenance system model simulates the maintenance actions in the production line by considering the resources availability, repair time, and resources travelling time amongst others. In addition, the maintenance model is capable of optimizing the preventive maintenance interval for maintainable failures for cost, availability and criticality while taking into account the maintenance effectiveness value from the failure data. The simulation model is validated using an industrial case study which consists of a large production line for beer. Sensitivity studies on the simulation model enabled the case study company to focus on strategies for throughput improvement by improving the reliability and maintainability, optimal resources allocation and maintenance interval optimization in targeted areas in the large and complex system. The model developed is generic and can easily be applied to analyse other industrial production line systems. It can also be used as a design tool for new production lines.

The 737 program is currently producing 42 airplanes per month and will increase that production rate to 47 per month by 2017 and 52 per month in 2018 [1] [2]. In order to help meet these rates Boeing plans to increase the amount of automation in the shop that produces front and rear spars for all 737 variants. To mitigate risks associated with increased automation, the automation design team would like to implement an approach to equipment maintenance and operation known as Total Productive Maintenance (TPM). However the justification for TPM was not clear and an implementation strategy did not exist. The focus of this thesis therefore, is to clarify the justification for TPM, understand how TPM could impact the production system, identify the barriers and enablers of TPM implementation at Boeing, and present a TPM implementation plan that will be appropriate and effective for the particular context in which it will be executed. An analysis of current maintenance data and practices, case studies within the current factory, and a qualitative analysis of the future production system suggest that TPM could provide many quantitative and qualitative benefits and that the new production system is a good candidate for TPM. Results from a discrete event model show that TPM poses minimal risk of disrupting the future production system. Results of an employee survey show that the most important factors to successful TPM implementation are related to planning and building support prior to implementation. These findings influenced the design of the TPM implementation plan presented in this thesis, which focuses initially on building support, planning, and training. As the airline industry adopts automated equipment in response to increased competition, TPM may become an important strategy for staying competitive. The multi-pronged analyses demonstrated in this thesis for justifying TPM, the survey method used to understand the company-specific barriers and enablers of TPM, and the method of designing a customized TPM implementation plan based on the insights from these analyses can serve as a general model for implementing TPM within Boeing and within the broader airline industry.

Abstract:
La maintenance et la production sont deux fonctions qui agissent sur les mêmes ressources. Cependant l'ordonnancement de leurs activités respectives est indépendant, et ne tient pas compte de cette contrainte. Les ressources (machines) sont toujours considérées comme disponibles à tout moment ou éventuellement durant certaines fenêtres de temps. Dès lors la planification de la maintenance n'est jamais prioritaire sur la production, pour effectuer des interventions préventives. Les travaux de cette thèse proposent quelques éléments de réponse au problème de la planification commune et intégrée des tâches de maintenance et de production, avec comme objectif le respect des contraintes intrinsèques au problème. L'objectif de notre travail est double. D'une part démontrer la nécessité de développer des heuristiques d'ordonnancement conjoint production/maintenance pour atteindre l'objectif d'optimisation de la sûreté de fonctionnement du système de production. Dans ce contexte nous avons proposé l'adaptation d'un certains nombre d'heuristiques des approches constructive, itérative et évolutive pour le cas de l'ordonnancement conjoint production/maintenance dans un atelier de type flowshop de permutation. D'autre part, nous avons étudié la contribution de la maintenance à la robustesse de ces ordonnancements conjoints. Le modèle proposé a pour objectif d'inscrire la génération d'ordonnancements conjoints comme une démarche proactive, et de démontrer que l'intégration de la maintenance lors de la génération des ordonnancements de production est à mettre au profit de la robustesse de ces derniers.

Abstract:
Les besoins essentiels de produire " plus ", " mieux " et " moins cher " s'inscrivent aujourd'hui dans une crise financière qui conduit les entreprises industrielles à faire face à des enjeux économiques liés aux impératifs de gains de productivité, mais aussi à des enjeux sociaux liés aux impératifs de sécurité des hommes et des matériels, aux exigences de protection de l'environnement et de réduction des nuisances. Ces enjeux se déclinent au niveau des équipements par le concept de maintien en condition opérationnelle (MCO). La maintenance en est l'élément principal, et l'un des principaux leviers d'action sur la performance globale des systèmes de production lorsqu'elle est couplée à un processus de pronostic. On parle alors de stratégies de maintenance prévisionnelles.
Ces nouvelles formes de maintenance posent de nombreux défis scientifiques et industriels, dont certains sont étudiés dans les présents travaux : Quel est le " meilleur " instant pour réaliser une intervention de maintenance préventive donnée ? Comment regrouper deux actions de maintenance préventive ? Qu'est-ce qu'une opportunité pour la maintenance ?
Les réponses à ces questions mobilisent des outils mathématiques variés, allant de l'algorithme de Bruss en analyse stochastique aux relations d'équivalence en algèbre.
Enfin, une application industrielle sur la plateforme TELMA est présentée.

Abstract:
Cyber-Physical System (CPS) or Digital-Twin approach are becoming popular in industry 4.0 revolution. CPS not only allow to view the online status of equipment, but also allow to predict the health of tool. Based on the real time sensor data, it aims to detect anomalies in the industrial operation and prefigure future failure, which lead it towards smart maintenance. CPS can contribute to sustainable environment as well as sustainable production, due to its real-time analysis on production. In this thesis, we analyzed the behavior of a tool of Ringvalsverk 4, at Ovako with its twin model (known as Digital-Twin) over a series of data. Initially, the data contained unwanted signals which is then cleaned in the data processing phase, and only before production signal is used to identify the tool’s model. Matlab’s system identification toolbox is used for identifying the system model, the identified model is also validated and analyzed in term of stability, which is then used in CPS. The Digital-Twin model is then used and its output being analyzed together with tool’s output to detect when its start deviate from normal behavior.

Abstract:
Efficiency in the public and freight transportation systems is of crucial importance for a society. Railways can offer high capacity and relatively low environmental impact, but require that several technical systems are tuned and operate well. Specifically there is a very tight interdependency between infrastructure and trains, which distinguishes railways from other transportation modes. Thus maintenance of all the subsystems is needed. Railways do also have some specific and complicating properties that influence maintenance and operations: Most activities need exclusive access to the infrastructure and - due to the geographic layout, safety requirements and partitioning of the subsystems - large portions of the network will be affected by each activity. Furthermore, several organisational units and resources are involved, ranging from governments and regulatory bodies, over operators and contractors to suppliers, technical experts and work forces. Thus railway maintenance is complicated to organize and consumes large budgets. This thesis treats the planning and scheduling problems that concern railway infrastructure maintenance and the coordination with train traffic. Mathematical methods and optimization are studied and used, with the aim of advancing the knowledge about models for solving such problems. The thesis contains three papers and presents: (1) A survey regarding railway maintenance activities, the major planning problems and the conducted research so far; (2) A model for quantitative comparison and assessment of competing capacity requests from train operations and maintenance; (3) An optimization model for integrated scheduling of both maintenance windows and train services. The work can be helpful for practitioners as well as researchers who want to take further steps in this interesting and challenging area. Based on the results that have been obtained, future research directions are presented that may lead towards practical use of concurrent planning of railway maintenance and train services.

Abstract:
Maintenance, the process of preserving the condition of the equipment and performance in a production facility, stands for a considerable large cost in the budget of manufacturing organisations and is strongly affected by short-term philosophy. Therefore, both the long-term and short-term consequences of maintenance strategies need to be examined and analysed. The aim with this research is to investigate the dynamic complexity between the requirements from operations on the performance of maintenance, to illustrate the challenge of trading long-term and short-term requirements and benefits. These aspects have been studied through system dynamics (SD) modelling, simulation-based optimisation (SBO) and multi-objective optimisation (MOO). In order to illustrate the analysed problems, a state-of-the-art literature review has been created and two different scenarios have been evaluated. The scenarios are to investigate both the effects of more or less planned maintenance and the implication of a stock-and-flow structure for hiring and retirements of maintenance resources. A conceptual base model, created in previous research, has been applied and developed in order to meet the objectives. From the performed experiments, it can be confirmed that with the use of SD simulation trends and consequences over longer periods of time are truly visualised. In the first scenario, the results indicate that a short-term maintenance management strategy is unprofitable over time. The simulation also reveals that improvement strategies and proactive work can revolutionise capability and profit over time, even if these strategies initially generate a higher cost. In the second scenario, where the effects of a major retirement are visualised, the results confirm that the company needs to act proactively in order to avoid great financial losses. Employee and average skill losses cause long-term negative effects on the capability and availability. The optimisation that has been performed, with the hiring rate as the main variable and the objectives of maximising availability, minimising the direct cost and minimising the indirect cost, has generated feasible solutions on the Pareto front. In conclusion, the results from the experiments identify the behaviours and causal relationships in a maintenance system in symbiosis with operations. With the long-term goal of generating less reactive workload on the maintenance function, there are many benefits to obtain. The charted delays and causal relationships in the system indicate multi-level consequences, where a management approach should benefit financially from emphasising the importance of acting proactively and directing resources to improvement strategy work.

Abstract:
Les méthodes de surveillance industrielle sont divisées en deux catégories : méthodes de surveillance avec modèle formel de l'équipement, et méthodes de surveillance sans modèle de l'équipement. Les modèles mathématiques formels des équipements industriels sont souvent entachés d'incertitudes et surtout difficiles à obtenir. Cette thèse présente l'application des réseaux de neurones artificiels pour la surveillance d'équipements industriels. Nous proposons une architecture de Réseaux à Fonctions de base Radiales qui exploite les propriétés dynamiques des architectures localement récurrentes pour la prise en compte de l'aspect temporel des données d'entrée. En effet, la prise en compte de l'aspect dynamique nécessite des architectures de réseaux de neurones particulières avec des algorithmes d'apprentissage souvent compliqués. Dans cette optique, nous proposons une version améliorée de l'algorithme des k-moyennes qui permet de déterminer aisément les paramètres du réseau de neurones. Des tests de validation montrent qu'à la convergence de l'algorithme d'apprentissage, le réseau de neurones se situe dans la zone appelée « zone de bonne généralisation ». Le réseau de neurones a été ensuite décomposé en fonctions élémentaires facilement interprétables en langage automate. La partie applicative de cette thèse montre qu'un traitement de surveillance en temps réel est possible grâce aux architectures à automates programmables industriels. Le réseau de neurones chargé dans l'automate est entièrement configurable à distance par le protocole de communication TCP/IP. Une connexion Internet permet alors à un expert distant de suivre l'évolution de son équipement et également de valider l'apprentissage du réseau de neurones artificiel.

L'objectif des ces travaux est le Développement d'un outil de supervision/diagnostic d'une station de production d'eau potable dans son ensemble. Avant de s'intéresser à la station dans son ensemble, il est apparu que l'unité de coagulation-floculation était une étape clé dans la production de l'eau potable. La première partie de la thèse a donc consisté à développer un capteur logiciel permettant de prédire en ligne la dose de coagulant, sur la base des caractéristiques mesurées de l'eau brute, à l'aide de réseaux de neurones. La deuxième partie de la thèse qui présente un aspect plus novateur réside dans l'utilisation de cette information dans une structure de diagnostic de l'ensemble de la station de traitement. A partir des mesures en ligne classiquement effectuées, un outil de supervision et de diagnostic de la station de production d'eau potable dans son ensemble a été développé. Il est basé sur l'application d'une technique de classification et sur l'interprétation des informations obtenues sur tout l'ensemble du procédé de production avec comme finalité l'identification des défaillances et une aide à la maintenance prédictive/préventive des différentes unités de la station. Une technique basée sur l'entropie floue et la définition d'un indice de validation a été développée pour permettre de valider ou non une transition entre états fonctionnels (c'est-à-dire entre classes) permettant ainsi d'éliminer les classes mal conditionnées ou encore les fausses alarmes.

Abstract

The aim of this thesis is to show the company the importance and the necessity of the maintenance, trough highlighting its role and impact on company’s profitability and competitiveness, and that’s happened within the analysing of the plant to figure out the failures and short stoppages, find out the causes behind them, convert them into money and the last step is to find out the most suitable and cost effective maintenance strategy based on some important factors such as economy, and quality to probably eliminate or reduce the number of failures and short stoppages. According to the analysis, capacity verifying data collection which the company has done during a random working daily shift and a technical faults list about the possibly failures and short stoppages which occur during the operation, it shows that there are some downtime due to management, operation and logistic, but the main focus was on the technical faults which has correlation with maintenance. In the result it shows which technical and mechanical problems the machines usually faces, the causes behind them, how much it cost the company when they breaks down and finally some suggestions and recommendations about how these problems can probably be solved based on economy and quality.

Abstract:
Since small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) represent a backbone for sustainable economicgrowth, the need for increasing the degree of automation in production plants is pushing today’sengineers to find customized and cost-efficient solutions. In the Industry 4.0 context, SMEswhich are aspiring towards quality, competitiveness and overall customer satisfaction requireto work with a systematic approach for implementing cyber physical systems (CPS) that arefunctioning autonomously and independently from human interaction. An essential area withinmanufacturing is represented by the maintenance of CNC machine’s tools that are directlyresponsible for achieving high-quality products. Since corrective maintenance is associatedwith uncertainty, unforeseen costs and increased downtime, the focus is diverted towardsuprising trends of preventive and predictive maintenance policies. The purpose of this thesis isto increase knowledge in the field of new maintenance practices in the context of Industry 4.0and to provide a framework for achieving customizable automated solutions adapted for theneeds and requirements of each individual SME. The work has used a guideline which isfollowing to transform the needs of SMEs into technical specifications which are used fordesigning and generating conceptual solutions whose effect is assessed from technical,economic, socio-environmental, operational and schedule perspective. For this matter, a casestudy has been conducted in a Swedish SME where there is a need for developing an automatedsolution for data collection in order to enable preventive and predictive maintenance. Forachieving this purpose and contribute to filling the gap in academic research on this matter, aframework for development and analysis of automated data collections is created based on thesystematic practices of concept development methodology to which a supplementary feasibilityanalysis is added for increasing the understanding of their impact. Furthermore, this frameworkis conceived to offer a long-term holistic view of the future changes resulted by theimplementation of automated solutions.

Abstract:

Background: Generally, operation management includes a set of complicated systems interfacing each other. Most important systems which impact and impacted by the operations management system are production management system and maintenance management system. But to treat the interfacing losses has been difficult as interact and partially overlap each other. In this study, case-operational system was treated with developed model that analysis and design integrated operational system in order to make it easier and cost effective to manage.

Methods: A model was developed based on latest literature survey work using systems paradigm methodology and systems engineering approach.

Results: Among five analysis techniques, four types of interfacing losses were identified, seven requirements were extracted, nine conceptual solutions were generated, one of them was selected and based on it the integrated operational management system were designed.

Conclusions: The results suggest that the operational system in case-company shall be integrated by organization management, process management, and control management, in addition to data management.


Bakgrund: I allmänhet har operations verksamhet en del komplicerade system där friktion kan förekomma. De viktigaste systemen som har påverkan på operations verksamhet är produktion och underhålls system. Att behandla friktions förluster har varit svårt eftersom de både samverkar och delvis överlappar varandra. I dem här studien har olika fall av operationssystem behandlats med att först utveckla en modell, analysera och designa den integrerade operationssystemet för att få den billigaste och dem mest kostnads effektiva sätt att klara av.

Metod: En modell har utvecklats baserat på de senaste metoderna genom att använda system paradigm metoder och systemtekniska angreppssätt.

Resultat: Genom att använda fem sätt att analysera, sju bestämmelser extraherade, nio lösningar generade, valdes en av lösningarna och med lösningen som grund designades operations verksamhet.

Slutsats: Resultatet förslog att operations verksamhet skall integrera organisation, process och kontroll ledningar och inte bara data ledningen.

Abstract:
En suivant les principales tendances d'évolution des systèmes automatisés et de la productique, nos travaux de recherche se positionnent dans l'optique des mutations induites par l'intégration des Sciences et Technologies de l'Information et de la Communication dans ces disciplines. Dans ce contexte, la décentralisation de l'intelligence et sa migration vers les niveaux bas, génèrent une évolution vers des services nouveaux, à même de permette non seulement de garder des positions privilégiées en terme de parts de marché, mais aussi d'en gagner de nouvelles.
Nos contributions se sont orientées précisément vers la mise au point de systèmes de surveillance dynamiques intelligents, en abordant des problématiques liées à la détection dynamique et au diagnostic curatif et préventif. Les techniques de l'intelligence artificielle ont ainsi constituées la colonne vertébrale de nos études, avec des travaux allant de la conception théorique et le test de nouveaux outils de surveillance dynamique, jusqu'à la validation, le prototypage et l'exploitation industrielle des concepts développés.
Dans le domaine de la surveillance dynamique, une de nos contributions majeures correspond à l'introduction d'un réseau de neurones dynamique innovant, le Réseau Récurrent à base de Fonctions radiales (RRFR). En faisant appel aux propriétés dynamiques des architectures localement récurrentes, le RRFR se caractérise par une approche de reconnaissance locale – essentielle en surveillance industrielle –, tout en permettant – de part ses caractéristiques dynamiques intrinsèques – une détection précoce des paliers de dégradation et une robustesse vis-à-vis des fausses alarmes. L'existence d'une mémoire statique et d'une mémoire dynamique facilement paramétrables au sein de la même structure, confère au réseau une souplesse d'utilisation très intéressante, ainsi qu'un accès à des techniques d'apprentissage allégées. Par ailleurs, dans le but d'augmenter la rapidité et l'efficacité de l'apprentissage, une version améliorée de l'algorithme des k-moyennes, permet d'améliorer la robustesse des algorithmes et de se situer dans la zone optimale de « bonne généralisation ».
La prise en compte de l'incertain fait l'objet d'une deuxième partie de nos travaux, située dans la continuité de la première. Dans ce sens, l'utilisation de la logique floue en surveillance dynamique se montre très intéressante de part la proximité par rapport au raisonnement et à l'expérience des opérateurs et ingénieurs, ainsi que de part la possibilité d'assurer une traçabilité essentielle pour le retour d'expérience en maintenance. Un outil de type réseau de Petri flou dédié à la surveillance (RdPFS) des systèmes de production a ainsi constitué l'objet de cette étude. Cet outil, basé essentiellement sur la modélisation floue de la variable "instant d'apparition" de l'événement discret, est muni d'un mécanisme d'interfaçage intégré, inspiré des réseaux de Petri à synchronisations internes, permettant la communication entre les outils de modélisation, de surveillance et de reprise. Dans un tel système, l'utilisation de la logique floue offre une souplesse d'utilisation et une dimension prédictive très intéressante. Basé sur un modèle RdPFS construit à partir des règles logiques induites par l'arbre de défaillance du système surveillé, nous avons montré sa capacité d'analyse dynamique des défauts, en utilisant une approche temporelle floue.
Dans nos travaux les plus récents, les avantages des outils neuronaux dynamiques et de la logique floue ont été mis à l'œuvre conjointement dans le cadre de systèmes hybrides neuro-flous d'aide à la surveillance. L'outil hybride ainsi proposé comporte deux parties, une première pour la détection dynamique – utilisant le RRFR amélioré essentiellement au niveau des algorithmes d'apprentissage dynamiques – et une deuxième pour le diagnostic curatif et prédictif, utilisant un réseau neuro-flou construit à partir de l'arbre de défaillance et de l'AMDEC du système / sous-système surveillé. Il est à noter que ce type de système de surveillance dynamique utilise l'approche abductive de recherche de cause – élément indispensable pour un diagnostic efficace. Par ailleurs, l'apprentissage dynamique permet de commencer l'activité de surveillance dynamique même en l'absence de données très consistantes, en enrichissant et affinant les symptômes et les causes associées (respectivement les degrés de crédibilité de celles-ci) au fur et à mesure du fonctionnement du système, grâce aux algorithmes neuronaux incorporés.
Parmi les verrous technologiques abordés lors de nos contributions, une place importante est accordée à la surveillance dynamique par apprentissage en ligne, en traitant des problèmes liés à la rapidité et la flexibilité de l'apprentissage, au temps de réponse, au traitement de grands flux de données, ainsi qu'aux méthodes de validation utilisant le test sur des benchmarks et le prototypage industriel.
Dans ce sens, l'exploitation industrielle du réseau récurrent à fonctions de base radiales a représenté une étape importante de nos travaux. Elle nous a permis la mise en œuvre d'une application de surveillance dynamique en temps réel d'un système, en utilisant l'apprentissage dynamique distant via le web. Mettant en évidence l'intérêt des techniques développées dans la réorganisation de l'activité de surveillance grâce aux nouvelles technologies, cette exploitation industrielle a donné lieu à un brevet d'invention, déposé en collaboration avec une SSII bisontine.
La conception de l'outil de surveillance neuro-flou a été menée en utilisant des spécifications UML. Cette approche a été initiée (étude, normalisation, spécification) dans le cadre du projet Européen PROTEUS/ITEA et finalisée (prototypage) dans le cadre d'un projet financé par l'ANVAR. Essentiels pour l'industrialisation des systèmes proposés, l'information de départ est considérée sous un format industriel classique (ADD, AMDEC, ...) et la mise à jour est assurée par une réelle ouverture du système traduite par des liens permanents avec les systèmes d'acquisition (capteurs, SCADA, ...) et les systèmes de gestion (GMAO, ...).
Dans le domaine de la e-maintenance, un défi considérable est constitué par le besoin de normalisation des plates-formes de e-maintenance, dans l'objectif d'arriver à terme à une génération automatique de ces plateformes, et à un standard qui pourra constituer un guide pour tous les constructeurs d'équipement soucieux d'intégrer leur produit dans une plate-forme de ce type. Du point de vue scientifique, il s'agit d'arriver à une génération automatique ou interactive d'une telle plate-forme, en fonction des services participants et du contexte d'utilisation. L'objectif est très ambitieux, car générateur de nouveaux services et de nouvelles opportunités commerciales. Il constitue l'objectif principal du projet européen SHIVA, dans lequel se retrouvent les partenaires les plus actifs de PROTEUS, avec – mise a part des partenaires déjà existants comme Cegelec et Schneider – des partenaires industriels nouveaux, tout aussi prestigieux, comme la Division des Constructions Navales et Airbus.
Concernant les perspectives de nos travaux, s'inscrivant dans le cadre des mêmes tendances de décentralisation et de migration de l'intelligence vers les niveaux opérationnels, une direction d'étude intéressante est constituée par le domaine des réseaux de capteurs intelligents. Cette perspective pourra ainsi intégrer des tendances technologiques liées aux connecteurs intelligents (« smart connectors ») basés sur le multiplexage et sur les courants porteurs, afin de réduire le volume de câblage, des points de connexion et afin de mieux prendre en considération les contraintes de sûreté de fonctionnement de ce type de réseaux, contraintes qui – dans un avenir très proche – seront vraisemblablement déterminantes.
Par ailleurs, dans un contexte régional, lié à la création du pôle de compétitivité « microtechniques », la problématique de la fabrication des microsystèmes est une problématique présentant un intérêt croissant. En effet, de nombreux prototypes de microsystèmes sont proposés en phase de prototype, avec une création liée à une manière plutôt artisanale, tout à fait compréhensible – vu les technologies innovantes utilisées -, mais qui ne se prête pas à une commercialisation de ces produits. De ce fait, l'étude des microsystèmes de production semble être un domaine porteur et permettant de garder des emplois européens – souvent menacés par la délocalisation.
Enfin, le diagnostic à partir de l'imagerie médicale en utilisant les techniques de l'intelligence artificielle me semble un domaine où mes compétences en recherche (surveillance par IA) et en enseignement (traitement de l'image) peuvent se donner la main pour aborder une thématique nouvelle, présentant un grand intérêt dans le domaine des biotechnologies, dans lequel la France est bien engagée depuis un certain nombre d'années. Cette perspective correspond au projet de recherche propose dans le cadre de ma délégation CNRS au laboratoire IPAL – Image Perception, Access and Learning (actuellement FRE, UMI-CNRS a partir de 2006) de Singapour.

Abstract:
Implementation of common and sustainable working methods is highly valued for Scania IM.The aim of their maintenance work is to increase availability to enable production targets. Themaintenance work should be safe with regard to human and environment, cost-effective andbased on suitable maintenance strategies. In order to achieve this, a common standardized workprocess is required for how Scania IM will work in the preparation phase of the components.The purpose of this degree project was to investigate how a new workflow can be used todevelop appropriate maintenance and stock strategies for components. The work was delimitedto analyze eighteen components, distributed over nine different subsystems in a multi-operationmachine.The project began with a meeting on Scania IM where the work process and the research objectwere presented. Relevant literature was selected and the selected research object was dividedinto different subsystems. Based on these subsystems, components were selected to beinvestigated. The work process was divided into two parts, process for maintenance strategyand process for stock strategy. In order to determine the appropriate maintenance strategy forthe components, interviews were applied. Interviewers were selected according to the technicalarea of the specific component. The stock strategy process was not complete as it was missinga systematic approach. This approach was subsequently developed into a new, expanded workprocess according to the preferences of the company. Afterwards, appropriate stock strategieswere selected through data collection and interviews.All components were assigned storage and maintenance strategies based on the characteristicsof each component, i.e. probability of failure, consequences of failure and lead time.Developing an appropriate maintenance strategy, which corresponds to the first part, turned outto be easier than determining the appropriate stock strategy. However, it turned out that the firstpart had an unclear decision point - to determine if failure modes occurred regularly or not.There was no definition of the concept of regular failures, which may have contributed to nocomponent being assigned predetermined maintenance as a strategy. Therefore, this isrecommended to be done in order for the process to be useful and correct.This degree project shows that the new work process can be used to develop appropriatemaintenance and storage strategies, provided that the person using the process has sufficientknowledge in the subject. The work process is meant to be used by maintenance staff, and musttherefore be verified before it can be established as a standardized working method.
Implementering av gemensamma och hållbara arbetssätt är en värdegrund hos Scanias IM.Målsättningen med underhållsarbetet är att öka driftsäkerheten för att möjliggöra uppsattaproduktionsmål. Underhållsarbetet som bedrivs ska vara säkert med hänsyn tagen till människaoch miljö, kostnadseffektivt och baserat på väl avvägda underhållsstrategier. För att uppnå dettaså krävs det bland annat en gemensam standardiserad arbetsprocess för hur Scania IM skallarbeta vid underhållsberedning av maskinkomponenter. Syftet med detta examensarbete var attundersöka hur en ny arbetsprocess för underhållsberedning kan användas för att ta framlämpliga underhålls- och lagerstrategier för maskinkomponenter. Arbetet avgränsades till attanalysera arton komponenter, fördelade över nio olika delsystem i en fleroperationsmaskin.Projektet inleddes med ett möte på Scania IM där arbetsprocessen samt undersökningsobjektetpresenterades. Relevant litteratur valdes ut och det valda undersökningsobjektet delades upp iolika delsystem. Utifrån dessa delsystem valdes komponenter ut som skulle undersökas.Arbetsprocessen var uppdelad i två delar, process för underhållsstrategi samt process förlagerstrategi. För att bestämma lämplig underhållsstrategi för komponenterna tillämpadesintervjuer. Intervjupersonerna valdes ut efter vilket teknikområde den specifika komponententillhörde. Processen för lagerstrategi var inte fullständig då den saknade ett systematiskttillvägagångssätt. Detta tillvägagångssätt utvecklades efterhand till en ny, utökad arbetsprocessi enlighet med verksamhetens önskemål. Därefter valdes lämpliga lagerstrategier ut genomdatainsamling och intervjuer.Samtliga komponenter tilldelades lager- och underhållsstrategier som baserades påförutsättningarna hos varje komponent, det vill säga felsannolikhet, konsekvens och ledtid. Attta fram lämplig underhållsstrategi, som motsvarar första delen, visade sig vara enklare än attbestämma lämplig lagerstrategi. Det visade sig dock att den första delen hade en otydligbeslutspunkt - att ta ställning till om feltyper uppstod regelbundet eller inte. Det fanns ingenanpassad definition av begreppet regelbundna fel, vilket kan ha bidragit till att ingen komponenttilldelades förutbestämt underhåll som strategi. Därför rekommenderas detta att göras för attprocessen ska bli användarvänlig och korrekt.Detta examensarbete visar att den nya arbetsprocessen går att använda för att ta fram lämpligaunderhålls- och lagerstrategier, förutsatt att den som använder processen har tillräckligakunskaper inom området. Arbetsprocessen är tänkt att användas av underhållsberedare, ochmåste därför verifieras av sådana innan den kan etableras som en standardiserad arbetsmetod.

Abstract:
Winter road maintenance is a necessity during the winter in Sweden, since the weather reduce traffic safety and accessibility, which have great impact on people and society in general. Unlike the degradation process of paved road surface and subgrade, that develops slowly over several years, the general state of the winter road can change significantly within a couple of hours, thus demanding more of road maintenance organisations when it comes to planning and initiating maintenance actions. Today there is a wide range of available sensor technology, that can be utilized to monitor the condition of the winter road and provide decision makers with the required information to initiate maintenance activities at the right time. However, it is necessary for the user, e.g. maintenance staff and decision makers, to know how this type of technology can be applied to make the winter road maintenance more efficient. The aim of this thesis is to define the winter road maintenance process, what obstacles and problems are present and the information requirements that are associated with planning, initiating and performing the winter road maintenance activities. The thesis focuses on the maintenance process for municipalities in northern Sweden using the city of Kiruna as a case study. An interview study was performed at Tekniska Verken in Kiruna to collect empirical data, which forms the basis for the process- and flow charts that are presented in the result. Common failure modes, connected to the failures that usually leads to the initiation of a maintenance activity, are identified, based on the interviews and the quality declaration for winter road maintenance. The failure modes were connected to the workflows, to show the phases of the workflow where the information is useful. Based on this, suitable sensor technology is proposed, which partly or fully meet the identified information requirements, and monitors the interesting failure modes of each maintenance activity. The results show that the greatest need for information is found in the stage of assessment and decision-making regarding initiation of maintenance actions, especially when it comes to initiation of snow plowing and de-icing activities. Using vehicle-based sensor technology, the condition of the road can be continuously monitored, and the initiation of maintenance activities can be triggered when reaching a threshold. Having road weather information stations, e.g. monitoring air and road temperature, wind speed, precipitation and road condition, is also an important source of information for municipal winter road maintenance. The use of sensor technology results in maintenance processes with fewer activities and decision steps, and it generates more reliable data that simplifies the decision-making.
Vinterväghållning är en nödvändighet under vinterhalvåret i Sverige, då väderlek har en stor påverkan på trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet för trafikanter. Till skillnad från nedbrytningen av belagd väg under barmarkssäsongen, som sker stegvis under flera år, kan vintervägens tillstånd försämras avsevärt inom bara ett par timmar. Detta ställer högre krav på vägunderhållsorganisationer vad gäller planering och initiering av underhållsåtgärder. Idag finns ett brett utbud av sensorteknik som kan användas för att övervaka vintervägens tillstånd, och förse beslutsfattare med nödvändig information för att kunna initiera underhållsaktiviteter vid rätt tidpunkt. Det är dock nödvändigt att användaren, dvs. underhållspersonal och beslutsfattare, har kunskap om hur denna teknik kan användas för att effektivisera vinterväghållningen. Syftet med arbetet är att ta reda på hur underhållsprocessen för kommunal vinterväghållning är utformad, vilka hinder och problem som förekommer samt vilket informationsbehov som finns i samband med planering, initiering och utförande av vinterväghållningsaktiviteter. Arbetet är avgränsat till att analysera vinterväghållningen i Kiruna kommun. En intervjustudie utfördes vid Tekniska Verken i Kiruna för insamling av empiriskt material, vilket utgjorde underlaget för de process- och flödeskartor som presenteras i resultatet. Med utgångspunkt ur intervjumaterialet och kommunens kvalitetsdeklaration för vinterväghållning, identifierades vanliga felmoder kopplade till de funktionsfel som leder till initiering av underhållsaktivitet. Felmoderna kopplades sedan till arbetsflödena, genom att visa i vilket skede i arbetet som information om dessa är användbar. Utifrån detta gavs förslag på lämplig sensorteknik som helt eller delvis kan tillgodose informationsbehovet som identifierats, samt övervaka de felmoder som är intressanta för respektive underhållsaktivitet. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att det är vid bedömning och beslut om initiering av underhållsåtgärd som informationsbehovet är störst, framför allt när det handlar om initiering av snöröjning och halkbekämpning. Genom att använda sensorteknik för kontinuerlig övervakning av vägens tillstånd, kan underhållsaktiviteter initieras vid definierade gränsvärden. Egna vägväderstationer som övervakar och mäter exempelvis luft- och vägtemperatur, vindstyrka, nederbördsmängd och typ samt väglag, kan vara till nytta för den kommunala vinterväghållningen oavsett vilken underhållsaktivitet det handlar om. Användningen av denna typ av teknik leder till effektiviserade underhållsprocesser med färre aktiviteter och beslutssteg, samt förenklad beslutsfattning baserat på mer tillförlitliga mätdata.

Abstract:
Inventory management is a complex system which involves different stakeholders from multiple areas in a company which creates a limitation when seeking information between involved staff. Having the right procedure of tracking regular and critical spare parts will give a better control and efficiency in the production process. It is important to have the right classification method to facilitate critical spare parts. The incorrect criteria classification can be achieved in case inventory management have the wrong systematic procedure. Classification methods have different purposes and achieve the highest utilization by combining a variety of methods. By integrating classification methods, set limits and combination of multiple criteria decision analysis can be performed. The study has conducted a case study to compare and evaluate the performance of inventory management in a trustworthy and efficient way. A theoretical framework is constructed with the intention on identify which classification methods can be combined and applied to a production factors criterion. Based on interviews with stakeholders from maintenance, warehouse, and production area related to spare parts and the company’s software system. Two perspectives were used to map the qualitative and quantitative measures. The results show 14 criteria were defined as parameters that measure the performance of criticality in spare parts. The conclusion of both perspectives suggests combining and implement an integration of AHP and ABC classification methods. A proof of concept is demonstrated on AHP analysis and ABC analysis to identify the critical spare parts and the criteria.

Abstract:
Esse trabalho tem como objetivo propor um modelo para determinação da criticidade em processos industriais, utilizando a análise multicritério. Inicialmente é proposta uma classificação por prioridade dos elementos mais críticos de um sistema industrial e posteriormente, uma ordenação desses elementos dentro das suas respectivas classes de criticidade, obtendo com isso a criticidade de cada um. O modelo baseia-se nos métodos de sobreclassificação ELECTRE TRI e PROMETHEE II. Uma aplicação do modelo é realizada nesse trabalho, onde são considerados os critérios: segurança; meio-ambiente; qualidade; impacto operacional; impactos econômicos; tempo médio entre falhas e tempo médio de reparo. Como resultado, são apresentadas comparações do modelo proposto com os métodos tradicionais de determinação de criticidade, procurando observar aspectos subjetivos e objetivos de forma conjunta, a fim de fornecer uma visão clara e sistêmica sobre os problemas implícitos na determinação da criticidade em sistemas industriais. É possível concluir que o uso da análise multicritério na determinação da criticidade possibilita maior profundidade na avaliação e constitui uma ferramenta que auxilia na gestão da manutenção e no aumento da confiabilidade para os sistemas produtivos.
This work aims to propose a model for determining the criticality in industrial processes, using the multi-criteria analysis. Initially it is proposed a priority rating of the most critical elements of an industrial system and later, an ordering of the elements within their respective classes of criticality, thus obtaining the criticality of each. The model is based on outranking methods ELECTRE TRI and PROMETHEE II. An application of the model is carried out in this work, where the criteria are considered: security; environment; quality; operational impact; economic impacts; mean time between failures and mean time to repair. As a result, are presented comparisons of the proposed model with the traditional methods of determination of criticality, trying to observe subjective aspects and objectives jointly in order to provide a clear and systemic view of the problems implicit in determining the criticality in industrial systems. It was concluded that the use of multi-criteria analysis to determine criticality enables greater depth in the assessment and is a tool that helps in the management of maintenance and increased reliability for production systems.

Abstract:
Inom tillverkningsindustrin präglas ständig utveckling och förbättringsarbete, speciellt när det kommer till produktionsavdelningen, som är hjärtat för verksamheten. Det är här produkterna vi konsumenter drömmer om visualiseras, definieras och förbereds för att komma till liv. Företagen är därför i mån av att ha en produktion som producerar konkurrenskraftigt i en hög hastighet, men också resurssnålt och tillförlitligt. Teknisk tillgänglighet är det nyckeltal som beskriver huruvida verksamhetens utrustning lever upp till sina förväntningar och är idag ett av de vanligaste nyckeltalen som används inom industrisektorn. Nyckeltalet är en procentsats som beskriver den andel av organisationens utrustning som är tillgänglig under den planerade produktionstiden, och används för att kunna mäta utrustningens prestation men också för att kunna prediktera och förebygga produktionsstopp. I denna studie så har vi beräknat den tekniska tillgängligheten på ett utav Scanias monteringslinjer genom att beräkna maskinernas MTBF och MTTR med hänsyn till seriella och parallella sammankopplingar. I resultatet framgår det att tillgänglighets förluster enkelt kan undvikas genom att använda sig utav redundans samt att enstaka maskiner bristfälliga prestation kan dra ner det slutgiltiga resultatet på grund av maskinernas seriella sammanslutningar till varandra och på så vis göra resultatet missvisande. Vidare kan man dra slutsatsen att värdefull information som kan användas för strategiskt beslutsfattande inom produktionsavdelningen inte nödvändigtvis utvinns ur den tekniska tillgängligheten utan istället av dess byggstenar MTTR och MTBF.Dessa nyckeltal kan användas för att validera organisationens underhållsstrategier, samt för att prediktera och förebygga maskinhaverier. I Scanias fall är tillgängligheten på den avdelningen som studien baserats på så pass hög att det inte riktigt finns rum för förbättring som kan uppnås på personalnivå, och eventuella mål om förbättringar kan kännas långsökta. Som en lösning till detta kan man se över att istället titta på MTBF och MTTR med avseende på samtliga maskiner av samma typ istället för att titta på de individuella. Detta för att få ett medelvärde som representerar maskintypens genomsnittliga presentation på avdelningen. Genom detta så får man en siffra som personalen på underhållsavdelningen kan vara med och påverka denna siffra på en daglig eller veckobasis istället för 6 månaders period.
The manufacturing industry is characterized by continuous development and improvement work, especially when it comes to its production department which is the heart of the business. This is where the products we consumers dream of are visualized, defined, and prepared to come to life. The companies are therefore subject to having a production that produces competitively at a high speed, but also resource-efficient and reliable. Technical availability is the key figure that describes whether the company's equipment lives up to its expectations and is today one of the most common key figures used in the industrial sector. The key figure is a percentage that describes the proportion of the organization's equipment that is available during the planned production period and is used to measure the equipment's performance but also to predict and prevent production stoppages. In this study, we have calculated the technical availability of one of Scania's assembly lines by calculating their machines MTBF and MTTR with regard to serial and parallel interconnections. The result shows that availability losses can easily be avoided by using redundancy and that individual machines' poor performances can reduce the final result due to the machines' serial connections to each other. Furthermore, it can be concluded that valuable information that can be used for strategic decision-making within the production department is not necessarily extracted from the technical availability but instead from analyzing its building blocks MTTR and MTBF. These key figures can be used to validate the organization's maintenance strategies, as well as to predict and prevent machine breakdowns. In Scania's case, the availability of the department on which the study is based is so high that there is not really room for improvement that can be achieved at staff level, and any goals for improvement may feel far-fetched. As a solution to this, you can instead look at MTBF and MTTR with respect to all machines of the same type instead of looking at them individually. This will get you a value that represents the machine group's average performance in the department. With this you will get a figure that the staff in the maintenance department can be involved in and influence on a daily or weekly basis instead of a 6-month period.

Abstract:
Nowadays improving accuracy, efficiency and robustness in measuring the torque, to overcome problems related to the repeatability of production processes, is taking on an increasingly important role in a highly automated, technologized and robotic industrial world. One of the main instruments available to detect and monitor the torque on a rotating system, such as a motor shaft, is the torque meter. This work, born in collaboration with IMA ACTIVE, deals with the torque meter integrated into granulators of the production chains of pharmaceutical companies to monitor the production process phases. The current transducer solution is revised, to define a sizing procedure for each machinery in which the torque meter must be integrated. Once the analytical relations for the instrument dimensioning are obtained and verified, the dimensioning of a specific missing measuring torque meter is realized and validated. The torque meter, as it is a reference instrument for the monitoring of a pharmaceutical process, requires periodic certifications of calibration. For this reason, in the thesis, it is also analysed the standard instrument used for the calibration procedure. New calibration instruments are here proposed and tested, to allow better emulation of the machine behaviour during the calibration procedure, hopefully improving the overall accuracy. Finally, issues related to the torque meter maintenance are taken into consideration. To simplify the maintenance procedure, a possible realization with modular construction is proposed. A decomposable instrument would allow a drastic reduction of the times required for the maintenance of the instrument, obviating the problems related to the one-piece solution.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction and purpose Development of a VSM tool has been done by performing experimental field work at ABB Robotics, a company that mass produces industrial robots and associated accessories. The tool development, the primary part of the project, mainly puts focus on production aspects. Furthermore, it has been centered on plant layouts of the product layout kind (production line). The purpose of the development is to create a tailored VSM tool that auto generates a foundation for value stream maps based on calculations and possibly simple simulation. The purpose is broken down into two questions where concrete problems can be illustrated: A) How should the VSM tool plainly signal capacity vs. demand, time balances in production and the ratio between value and non-value adding aspects as well as intuitively promote knowledge and in a simple and fast manner be applicable to different kinds of production lines? B) Which constraints are placed on the potential of the VSM tool due to the current situation of the company, how does this contradict the main principles of VSM and how can the company work to maximize the tool´s potential in the future? Methodology and knowledge The development which is characterized by continuous counseling and feedback with the internal mentor is mainly based on laboratory work in Excel. In addition, the work has also involved the making of a user guide as well as an adjustable function for indicating production effects with colors. An evaluation of the tool and the user guide has also been made, which mainly is supported by a test run with the internal mentor and the nature of the methodology. The knowledge that the development uses as its footing mainly involves process- and value stream maps from the company, discussions with company personnel, self-performed laboratory work and theory from Rother and Shooks book “Lära sig se” (2005) and Drew. A. Locher´s book “Value Stream Mapping for Lean Development” (2008). Results The VSM tool manages, in a relevant way, to factor in all aspects that can be interpreted using a typical value stream map. In addition it also provides the following: balances between workstations and production lines, suggestions for amount of WIP between these, simple simulation of WIP between these, disturbance aspects, three total times; manufacturing lead time, inventory time and value adding time as well as a graphic illustration over production courses. The results are considered to fulfill the purpose of the project. Conclusion and future meaning The development results in a hybrid solution of sorts, a tool that exists somewhere in-between the typical draw-by-hand VSM work and simulation software. Its advantage is that it combines VSM theory with intuitive, swift and practical usage, which goes well in hand with today´s fluctuating conditions where time pressure of different kinds are present. The drawback is that the concept as a whole requires complementing in the form of Lean knowledge and gemba observations. Furthermore, there are implications associated with some types of parallel production and editing of the tool, which is to be addressed before implementation. In order to fully utilize the tool, the company also has to examine production times and make a minor adjustment to the process of collecting disturbance data. Three suggestions for the future are given; to study availability, transport aspects and the measuring of production times.

Abstract:
I det här arbetet eftersökte Scania IM en metod för att beräkna maskiners påverkan på output för en produktionslina vid driftstörningar. Metoden skulle kunna appliceras på en produktionslina med ett serie-parallellt flöde och arbetet utgick från en utvald lina där man bearbetar cylinderhuvuden. Vid framtagandet av beräkningsmetoden skapades det som i arbetet kallas för påverkansfaktor som tar fram vilken påverkan ett bortfall av en maskin i flödet har på flaskhalsutrustningen, som i sin tur står för den yttersta begränsningen för systemet. På seriella stationer erhålls en påverkansfaktor på 100 % men på stationer med parallell utrustning så finns det en kvarvarande kapacitet vid driftstopp av enstaka maskiner vilket är beroende av hur många maskiner samt vilken utnyttjandegrad de hade i ursprungsläget. Vid framtagandet av beräkningsmetoden togs inspiration från tidigare arbeten inom detta område men anpassades eller förenklades för att möta behoven från underhållsavdelningen. En utveckling av metoden gjordes även för att kunna analysera historiska data där information omproducerad variant saknas och då används ett viktat genomsnitt för påverkansfaktorn. Påverkansfaktorn bortser från buffertars påverkan på systemet men hur de ska inkorporeras undersöktes och därav togs ett förslag fram där kritisk driftstoppstid (critical downtime) används tillsammans med påverkansfaktorn för att ta hänsyn till såväl buffertar som parallell utrustning. Ett verktyg skapades för Scania IM för att underlätta användandet av framtagna beräkningsmetoder. Det som kvarstår efter avslutat arbete är att över tid testa de framtagna metoderna för att undersöka hur väl de överensstämmer med verkligt produktionsutfall. Detta kunde ej genomföras under gällande situation då produktionen ej var i drift enligt normalläge under tidsperioden för arbetet.
For this thesis, Scania IM sought a method for calculating the impact of machine downtime on the output of a production line. The method was created to be applied on a production line with a seriesparallel flow and was constructed based on a selected line where cylinder heads are machined. To achieve this a variable called impact factor was created that produces the effect an individual machines downtime has on the bottleneck equipment for the production line, which in turn accounts for the utmost limitation of the system. At serial stations, an impact factor of 100% is obtained, but at stations with parallel equipment, there is a remaining capacity if at least one machine is functioning. The amount on remaining capacity is dependent on how many of the parallel machines that are malfunctioning and the degree of utilization they had in the original state. In developing the calculation method, inspiration was taken from previous work regarding similar subjects, but it was either adapted or simplified to meet the needs of the maintenance department for the production line. A further development of the method was also made to be able to analyze historical data where information on the produced variant of cylinder heads is missing which led to the use of a weighted average for the impact factor. The impact factor ignores the effects of buffers on the system output, but how they are to be incorporated was investigated and a proposal was therefore made where critical downtime is used together with the impact factor to take into account both buffers and parallel equipment. A tool was created for Scania IM where they can perform these calculations. What remains after completion of the thesis is to test the developed methods over time to examine how well they correspond to actual production data. This could not be done during the time of this thesis due to the current situation when production was not operating according to normal conditions.

S'appuyant sur une démarche qualité et l'utilisation de moyens d'analyse de données fiables, les acteurs opérationnels cherchent à adresser quotidiennement deux aspects : le contrôle et la réduction continus de la variabilité d'une part et la gestion, évaluée de risque et des actions à entreprendre d'autre part. Cette thèse s'intéresse en particulier au second aspect. Néanmoins, le contrôle et la réduction continue de la variabilité n'ont jamais été négligés puisqu'ils ont servi à quantifier opérationnellement les gains obtenus par la méthodologie proposée. La question centrale de cette thèse vient adresser les deux préoccupations citées précédemment : Comment évaluer et améliorer la performance des moyens et processus de production par le biais d'une analyse de risque qui soit dynamique et intégrée. Comment définir par la suite des plans d'action unifiés et robustes pour maîtriser la variabilité et éviter les non conformités ? Cette thèse propose une méthode globale de gestion dynamique des plans d'actions. Il s'agit d'établir dans un premier temps des liens continus entre les événements réels des équipements et le niveau de risque estimé. Et de proposer un processus de gestion des plans d'actions unifié, joignant l'expertise humaine et les évènements réels, d'aide à la décision et de gestion des retours d'expérience. Cette thèse propose des solutions de gestion des risques opérationnels et des méthodologies de travail appliquées dan le domaine de l'industrie des semiconducteurs mais qui sont génériques et applicables dans d'autres secteurs industriels.

Abstract:
Examensarbetet utfördes hösten 2020 på Scania Industrial Maintenance i Södertälje. Arbetet har fokuserat på två avdelningar inom produktionsavsnitten Transmissionsbearbetning samt Motorbearbetning, en avdelning från vardera produktionsavsnitten. På Transmissionsbearbetning undersöktes avdelningen Hårda kugg och på motoravdelningen undersöktes DMAHB. Huvudmålet för examensarbetet är att så långt som möjligt definiera teknisk tillgänglighet för Scania baserat på produktions- och underhållsdata. Med hjälp av underhållsingenjörer, underhållstekniker samt tidigare erfarenheter från arbete på Scania har information- och processkännedom införskaffats via besök och intervjuer. Data från respektive linje har analyserats och litteraturstudier har gjorts för att få en djupgående förståelse för problemet. Nuläget inom produktion och underhåll har givit en helhetsbild över problematiken med att definiera teknisk tillgänglighet. Flertalet faktorer har tagits i åtanke såsom kultur, bristande resurser, nyckeltal och standarder. Mätning av teknisk tillgänglighet kan göras på flera sätt enligt svenska underhåll standarder vilket tas upp i arbetet. Det som i det här arbetet anses passa Scania är att utgå ifrån drifttiden och tid för återställning för att få fram underhållets påverkan på produktionen. För att uppnå det här behöver Scania börja mäta drifttiden för varje maskin och förbättra rapporteringen av stopptiderna.
The examination project was carried out in the autumn of 2020 at Scania IndustrialMaintenance in Södertälje. The work has focused on two departments within the production sections Transmission processing and Engine processing, one department from each production section. In the Transmission processing, the Hard Gear section was examined, and in the engine-section was DMAHB examined. The main goal of the examination project is to define technical availability for Scania as far as possible based on production and maintenance data. With the help of maintenance engineers, maintenance technicians and previous experience from working at Scania, information and process knowledge has been acquired through visits and interviews. Data from each line have been analyzed and literature studies have been done to gain an in-depth understanding of the problem. The current situation in production and maintenance has provided an overall picture of the problems with defining technical availability. Most factors have been considered such as culture, lack of resources, key-figures, and standards. Measurement of technical availability can be done in several ways according to Swedish maintenance standards, which is addressed in the work. What in this work is considered suitable for Scania is to start from the operating time and time for restoration to obtain the impact of maintenance on production. To achieve this, Scania needs to start measuring the operating time of each machine and improve the reporting of downtime.

Studien är utförd för att identifiera faktorer som påverkar materialflödet negativt i en tillverkningsindustri. På fallföretaget Gunnebo Industries observerades ett specifikt problemområde med fluktuationer som grundar sig i smidesmaskiners driftsäkerhet. Dessa skapar påföljder som försvårar materialhanteringen. Rapporten illustrerar sedan hur stokastisk modellering av maskinfel kan användas som ett indikationsverktyg. Resultatet påvisar en weibullfördelning för samtliga smidesmaskiner. Modellen kan användas för att finna potentiella förbättringsområden eller till och med för att utveckla implementerbara förbättringar. Den reflekterar över nuvarandetillstånd, likt värdeflödesanalys, men med fokus på maskiners pålitlighet. Dessutom diskuteras diverse faktorer som influerar modellen samt hur den i sin tur kan användas vid vidare forskning och analys.
The thesis is conducted on the basis of identifying negatively influencing factors on the flow of material within a manufacturing environment. At Gunnebo Industries the case study revealed a specific problem with fluctuations caused by machine reliability. The report illustrates how stochastic modelling of machine failure can be utilized as a tool of indication. The model can be used to uncover potential refinements regarding production and maintenance. It reflects on current state, complemented by what is attainable. Similarly to value stream mapping, but by emphasizing machine reliability. Furthermore, a discussion is formed regarding various interesting factors influencing the model, and how it in turn can be used in further research and analysis.

Abstract:

The aim of this report is to analyse the use of the capacity at the CNC (computer numerical control) cutters and show how the level of set up time for these cutters at Stålöv AB. This assignment is concrete whereas there are no subjective questions to this matter and there are only cold figures presented.

Production economy is getting more important as the competition hardens and there are several different ways to increase productivity and efficiency in a company. In order to increase productivity and efficiency work studies are used to, through an analysis, find developments in methods that result in improved work methods and to establish the time that are used. Increased production of different parts and customer driven production in combination with increased demands on rationalisation of capital have led to an enlarged interest for shorter set up times in the production.

To point out the use of capacity and the set up time of the cutters at Stålöv AB we used frequency studies. Frequency studies are work measure methods based on random observations on predetermined events to calculate the relative occurrence of these events. The purpose is to present the objective cold figures that show the use of capacity for all machines and totally.

The compilation of the seven CNC cutters shows that the use of capacity reaches 33 %. The lack of machine operators is the single largest reason, 45 % of the total use of capacity. The set up time reaches 6 % totally of the 36 hours of observation of the machines.

The study of the separate CNC cutters shows that the result follows the result of the compilation of all machines; the main reason why the use of capacity is low depends on the lack of machine operators. This means that if the demand increases there will not be enough operators to meet this demand.

If using SMED, the set up time percentage share of the total use of capacity are too large, but the production of prototypes that supplies great value to the company may justify the set up times.

By using Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), based on the elimination of breakdowns and defective products, the stability in production and the use of capacity may increase.

Low manufacturing costs are an important competitive factor in the manufacturing industry. A way to achieve a more automated and cost-effective manufacturing industryis is to use hydraulic fixtures. When these fixtures are manufactured and assembleda function test and adjustment are needed before they are delivered and startbe used in series production. The market lacks an ergonomic, user-friendlyand well-adapted test station for hydraulic fixtures. The purpose and goal are to create an understanding of how to achieve an ergonomic and user-friendly test station for hydraulic fixtures, to ultimately present a virtual prototype as a total solution where both hydraulic pressure and flow are adjustable. The work will only affect the test station and not the hydraulic fixtures which it is connected. To achieve this, relevant theories in product development and ergonomics are used. The implementation is based on different product development steps, which lead to one total solution. After compiling a detailed design of the test station components, a virtual prototype is presented as the end result

Abstract:
3D printing technologies have been gaining a lot of popularity in the last fifteen years, technologies like Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing have never been as accessible as they are today, and with the introduction of the desktop 3D printer, the technology is becoming a mainstream tool for developing prototypes and direct part production from a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) file. In an industrial context, the technology is utilized for different purposes, among which is the development and production of customized and task-specific tools. The proposed work in this thesis is an approach to simplify and streamline the development process of customized production tooling and workstation. The approach was used to identify problems and improvement opportunities at a production facility that delivered IT products. Furthermore, the Technical framework included in the proposed approach provided a guiding path to follow for the prototype development of tools to address identified problems. Developed tools and proposed solutions positively affected the production line work procedure and were accepted and adopted. While other solutions required further exploration and iterative cycles as some reluctance was experienced hence it implied changes in the workflow and daily routines.

The study improved the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) of machines and processes through the implementation of a total productive maintenance (TPM) approach at Company S over a three-month period. By comparing the OEE of equipment before and after the implementation of autonomous maintenance, this study concluded that autonomous maintenance improves OEE. The target of this study was one general product line at a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plant. Due to time limitations, the study only applied autonomous maintenance to operational activities. This research involved machine and processes selection, condition assessment, baseline OEE assessment, operator training, execution of autonomous maintenance, and OEE measurement. The approach was based on the steps of autonomous maintenance but was simplified for the conditions of the plant.

This thesis has been conducted at Ovako Bar for a period of 10 weeks and is the final part of the bachelor's programme in mechanical engineering. Ovako Bar is a business unit of the European steel concern Ovako which specializes in the manufacturing of engineering steel for applications in various fields of mechanical engineering. The company wants to improve profitability of their sawing centre by reducing the consumption of saw blades and increase productivity at one of their sawing machines. In the current situation the company uses disposable blades which are discarded either when a tool break occurs or when the quality requirements are no longer met for the outgoing material. A literature review was conducted in which various factors affecting the life span of the saw blades were analyzed after their impact on the outcome in which two factors was selected to be used for a design of experiments. The factors selected were feed per tooth and cutting speed in which a total of four experiments were conducted and finally the results showed that the interaction effect was the decisive factor for the outcome. To investigate the tool wear that had arisen a scanning electron microscope was used where a few teeth on each blade were studied for any damages. The conclusions that could be drawn from the experiment is that a high feed rate must be combined with a high cutting speed for best result which has to do with the fact that a higher feed requires a greater heat generation for the best chip formation. The same applies for the lower feed rate which must be combined with a lower cutting speed because a higher cutting speed causes a dominating wear on the clearance face.

At SCA's sawmill Rundvik in Nordmaling, there is an automated packaging machine. There is no good user manual for use/operation and maintenance of the machine, which has made it difficult for the staff to handle it. The purpose of this work has been to map the machine's parts, functions and then produce a user manual. This was done by first mapping the location of the machine's axles and its functions. The staff at the planer were then interviewed to sort out difficulties and problems with the machine. A problem solution that solves the most common errors has been produced. A maintenance plan has been developed to facilitate maintenance of the machine. A quote for a software update has been sent to the machine programmer. A quote regarding a safety device for the machine has been sent to the machine manufacturer. The result is a fully usable, easy-to-read user manual. The purpose has not been fully fulfilled as the operator has not had time to test the instructions.

Abstract:
On the 26th of May 2021 the new regulation for medical devices, MDR 2017/745, will come into force. The underlying incentives to go from the medical device directive (MDD 93/42/EEC) to MDR are a series of adverse events involving medical devices. The main goal of MDR is to strengthen and improve the already existing legislation and thus will entail large changes for manufactures, one of them being manufacturers of Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. For medical software, such as EHR systems, the new regulation will imply an upgrade in risk classification. This upgrade will bring additional requirements for EHR manufacturers. Furthermore, the released guidelines have been insufficient regarding the specific requirements for medical device software and thus EHR manufacturers are in need of tools and guidance to fulfill MDR. This thesis examines the new regulation for medical devices and thus identifies main requirements for EHR manufacturers. A qualitative approach was conducted comprising a literature study as well as a document study of the medical device regulation along with interviews with experts within the field of medtech regulatory affairs and quality assurance. The information gathered was analyzed to create a process description on how EHR manufacturers are to fulfill MDR. The process description is a general outline and presents the main steps on the route to be compliant with MDR in a recommended order of execution. The main steps are: divide the system into modules, qualify the modules, classify the modules, implement a quality management system, compile a technical documentation, compile the declaration of conformity, undergo a conformity assessment and finally, obtain the CE-mark. To each of the main steps additional documentation provides further information and clarification. The process description functions as a useful tool for EHR manufacturers towards regulatory fulfillment. Even though the process description is created for EHR manufacturers, it can be useful for other medical device software manufacturers. The process description provides an overview of the path to a CE mark and functions as a guidance. It can be used in educational purposes as well as to serve as a checklist for the experienced manufacturer to make sure everything is covered. However, it is not sufficient to rely solely on the process description in order to be in full compliance with MDR. Moreover, there is still a need for further clarifications from the European Commission regarding specific requirements on medical device software.

Abstract:
Detta arbete har utforskat interaktionen mellan människa och automation inom det avhjälpande underhållet på två tillverkande företag. Arbetets syfte är bidra till att människor och automationsutrustningar framgångsrikt kan samarbeta i framtidens fabriker. Studien har undersökt hur interaktionen ser ut i dagsläget, var det idag saknas interaktion, hur interaktionen kan komma att se ut i framtiden samt vilka krav som behöver uppnås för att komma dit. Studien har också haft ett fokus på hållbar utveckling och hur interaktionen kan påverka denna. Projektets resultat är framtaget genom att utföra två deltagande observationer, en på vartdera företaget samt fyra semistrukturerade intervjuer per företag. I dagsläget sker mycket kommunikation genom telefon för att påkalla uppmärksamhet hos personal med information om larm och plats. Felsökning sker genom en panel vid maskinen alternativt via dator som kopplas upp mot maskinen vid djupare felsökning. Det finns i dagsläget även teknik såsom kommunikationsradio, tangentbord och mus som undviks att användas i största möjliga mån eftersom de anses vara svåra att manövrera. Resultaten visar att det finns ett behov av att få mer information i underhållets alla faser och att tekniken som används behöver vara mer mobil än i dagsläget. Författarna ger förslag på att handhållna enheter kan användas i framtidens underhåll och att röstigenkänning, Virtual Reality och Augmented Reality kan användas i dessa. Även smarta klockor rekommenderas att användas för att påkalla uppmärksamhet hos personal och samtidigt ge information om larm. Det finns en förhoppning om att mer information och mer mobil teknik kan effektivisera underhållet och därmed minska tiden för att utföra ett avhjälpande underhåll. Författarna rekommenderar starkt att all teknik som är tänkt att bli implementerad först testas i en realistisk miljö av de personer som ska använda tekniken.
The project has explored the interaction between humans and automation within the remedial maintenance on two manufacturing companies. The purpose of the project is to contribute to the interaction between humans and automation and by that make it successful in the future. The study has investigated how the present interaction is designed, where there is a need for interaction, how the interaction can be designed in the future together with the requirements that will need to be achieved to get there. In this study there is also a focus on sustainable development and how the interaction affects it. The result of the project is produced by performing two attendance observations, one at each company and four semi-structured interviews at each company. Today a lot of communication is done by phone to get the attention of personnel and summon them to the machine that has stopped. The troubleshooting of the machine is done in a panel or with a computer if deeper troubleshooting is needed. The computer needs to be connected to the machine. Today there are some technics that are present but these are not used due to the fact that they are perceived tedious to use. These technics are communication radio, mouse and keyboard. The result of the study indicates that there is a need for more information in all the phases of a remedial maintenance work. It also shows that the technics needs to be more mobile compared to how it is today. The authors recommends that handheld devices are used in the future and that softwares such as voice recognition, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are used within the handheld devices. Smartwatches are also interesting in an attention point of view where alarm messages can be shown. There is a belief that with more information and more mobility the maintenance will be more effective in the future and that the time for remedial maintenance will reduce. The authors strongly recommend that all technics that will be implemented need to first be tested in a realistic environment and by the people that should use it.

Abstract:

Detta examensarbete beskriver hur förarbetet till att datorisera ett underhållssystem genomförs. Uppdragsgivare är Lear Corporation i Torslanda. Examensarbetet består av två delar: utvärdera en på förhand vald programvara och att dokumentera allt förebyggande underhåll (FU). Syftet är att få bättre kontroll och planering av förebyggande underhåll (FU) i framtiden. Programvaran som skall utvärderas om den är lämplig för ändamålet heter Tekla™ Maintenance.

Målet var att dokumentera allt förebyggande underhåll (FU) för två av tre liner i Lear Corporations fabrik i Torslanda.

Det visade sig att Tekla™ Maintenance uppfyllde de krav som fanns. De krav som fanns var bland annat när det var dags att göra ett förebyggande underhållsarbete ska programmet automatiskt tala om att nu skall det utföras. Ett användarvänligt gränssnitt var också efterfrågat. Rapporten innerhåller även en beskrivning av hur Tekla™ Maintenance är uppbyggt.

För att få en bild av hur det är att arbeta med programmet i verkligheten genomfördes en benchmarking mot Plastal AB. Plastal AB hade mycket goda erfarenheter av att arbeta med programmet och kunde därför varmt rekommendera det.

All dokumentation av förebyggande underhåll sker i dag på papper. Eftersom denna dokumentation inte innehöll tillräckligt med information skedde nedbrytningen från grunden. Varje line delades in i mindre områden så som line, kringutrustning och moment- och skruvdragare. När allt var dokumenterat fick underhållspersonalen tala om vad för slags förebyggande underhåll som skulle göras på all utrustning. Allt skrevs in i en Excel-fil som skall användas för att importera informationen till Tekla™ Maintenance i framtiden. Filen innerhåller över 2000 stycken objekt, vilket ger en bra grund för underhållsarbetet i framtiden.


This Bachelor Thesis deals with how to prepare a computerization of a Maintenance Management System. The Bachelor Thesis is written by commission at Lear Corporation in Torslanda, Sweden. The paper is divided into two parts: evaluate a software and document all preventive maintenance. The purpose is to get better control and planning of preventive maintenance in the future. Tekla™ Maintenance is the software that is going to be evaluated.

The aim is to document all preventive maintenance for two of three production lines at Lear Corporations factory at Torslanda, Sweden.

The research shows that Tekla™ Maintenance met the specifications. One of the basic requirements was to automate the management of prevention maintenance activity, by issuing work order. Furthermore a user friendly interface was required. A description of Tekla™ Maintenance is included in the report.

To get a feeling of how the programme perform in real world, benchmarking was preformed against Plastal AB. The benchmarking resulted in that Plastal AB recommended the Tekla™ Maintenance programme.

Currently the documentation does not contain enough detailed information to allow a thorough review of all production lines.

By dividing all lines into zones, all activities at each zone have been documented.

Feedback form the operators was given, about what type of preventive maintenance that is required.

To be able to put all the information into Tekla™ Maintenance, an Excel file has been made. This file contains over 2000 entries and should provide a solid base for future preventive maintenance.

Abstract:
Detta examensarbete är utfört på Astrazeneca Södertälje inom Meto-försteg som är en del av fabriken API, med syftet att effektivisera underhållsarbetet. En kartläggning av det förebyggande underhållet genomfördes, i syfte att identifiera underhållsarbete som utförs dubbelt av både operatörer inom API och underhållsleverantören Caverion. Examensarbetet presenterar en redogörelse för begrepp inom underhåll, TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) och beslutsmodellen QFD (Quality Function Deployment) vilka utgör den teoretiska utgångspunkten för resultat och analys. Examensarbetet bygger på insamlade observationer och intervjumaterial från personal verksamma inom drift och underhåll. Studiens resultat visar att det genomförs överlappningar i underhållsarbetet, exempelvis inom veckotillsyn och förebyggande underhåll (FU) inom fabriksdelen Meto- försteg. Både operatörer och Caverion genomför underhållsåtgärder som innefattar visuell kontroll av oljenivåer, läckage, missljud, vibrationer för ett antal maskiner. En tydligare fördelning av underhållsåtgärder mellan operatörer och Caverion kommer bidra till effektiviseringen av underhållsarbetet.
This thesis was carried out at Astrazeneca Södertälje within Meto-pre stage, which is part of the factory API, intending to streamline the maintenance work. Apreventive maintenance survey was carried out, to identify maintenance work that was performed twice by both API operators and the maintenance provider Caverion. The thesis presents an account of concepts in maintenance, TPM (Total Productive Maintenance), and the decision model QFD (Quality Function Deployment) which constitute the theoretical starting point for results and analysis. The thesis is based on collected observations and interview materials from staff active in operations and maintenance. The results of the study show that there are overlaps in maintenance work, for example in weekly supervision/inspections and preventive maintenance (FU) within the factory part Meto-pre stage. Both operators and Caverion carry out maintenance operations that include a visual control of oil levels, leakage, noise, vibrations for several machines. A clearer distribution of maintenance measures between operators and Caverion will contribute to the streamlining of maintenance work.

Abstract:
Syftet med arbetet är att belysa och förbättra maskinunderhållet inom Sweprod. Detta med fokus på eloxeringsprocessen samt att identifiera hur förebyggande underhåll på bästa sätt kan införas på Sweprod. Målet med studien är att ge organisationen en bild av hur det förebyggande underhållet ser ut och att ge dem förslag på vad det finns för förbättringsåtgärder och hur det kan implementeras. Organisationen har, som många andra verksamheter som arbetar inom tillverkning av produkter, många maskiner som kräver någon typ av underhåll. Ytbehandlingsprocessen som studien beskriver, kallas för eloxering och är en process som hanterar ytan på plåtar för att kunna färglägga dempå ett korrekt sätt. Oplanerade driftstopp på maskiner och förseningar i leveranser av produkter inom organisationen har gjort att underhållsprocessen hamnat i fokus. Organisationen reagerar oftare när något händer i form av korrigerande underhåll istället för att planera in förebyggande underhåll eller villkorbaserat underhåll för att minska sannolikheten att något händer. Det har gjort att organisationen vill se över rutinerna kring underhållet med fokus på det förebyggande underhållet. Studien lyfter främst fram olika underhållsstrukturer med inriktning på förebyggande underhåll. Studien hanterar även förslag på hur organisationer på ett effektivt sätt kan arbeta med att implementera eventuella förbättringsområden som identifieras med hjälp av kvalitetsverktyg. Intervjuer med medarbetare och ledning inom organisationen har varit en stor faktor för att identifiera orsaker till att underhållet anses vara bristfälligt. Det har resulterat i att identifiering av grundorsaker inom eloxeringsprocessen har hittats som visar att med relation till olika underhållsstrukturer finns förbättringsmöjligheter inom främst helhetsstrukturen. Det som ligger i fokus är främst underliggande struktur i from av Maintenance Management, Routine Maintenance Program, Reliability-Centered Maintenance, Total Productive Maintenance. Inom eloxeringsprocessen finns det också flera kontrollmätningar som inte används till det förebyggande underhållet. Hade processen strukturerats med hjälp av Maintenance Management hade ett villkorbaserat underhåll varit av nytta för processen. Studien som har utförts av författaren har stegvis gett en inblick i vilka orsaker som är bristfälliga inom organisationen. Det har också gett en mer detaljerad inblick i eloxeringsprocessen, där det även identifierades grundorsaker som visar att underhållsstrukturen är en faktor till att förebyggande underhållet anses vara bristfälligt. Studien har också med hjälp av tidigare forskning identifierat angreppsätt för hur strukturen bör se ut inom organisationen med koppling till undersökningen som gjorts. Förslag har också presenterats på hur organisationen på ett effektivt sätt skulle kunna implementera underhållsstrukturen till eloxeringsprocessen med hjälp av en implementeringsprocess.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to implement Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) in Nigeria Plastics Manufacturing Company. Manufacturing companies round the world pay huge amount of money for purchasing new equipments to boost their production however nothing or little is done to achieve or obtain full output from the machine for which it is intended to do. Small losses in time or deviations from planned or calculated capability are taken as usual machine performance. But currently as a result of improved capability levels and demand of quality product at lower prices, purchasing latest machine/equipment is not a way out unless it is completely used. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a method that involve everybody totally, from high management to all workers to implement a complete maintenance program for all machine/equipment during its life. This method ends up in most effectiveness of tools, equipment, virtuously improved workers, tidy up working area, neat and clean working environment. A structure is going to be developed with the potential of evaluating the impact of implementing total productive maintenance within. By evaluating the result or outcome of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), manufacturing companies can create sensible/smart decisions to improve the potency and standard of the machine, equipment and also the product on XYZ Plastics Manufacturing Company in Nigerian.

Abstract:
Os recentes avanços na manufatura inteligente abrem oportunidades na área do suporte industrial, especificamente na manutenção e gestão de ativos físicos. Essa tendência permite que os dados coletados das máquinas, quando estão em pleno funcionamento, possam interagir com computadores, (ciberespaço), através de uma rede de comunicação formando assim o conceito de Sistemas Ciberfísicos (CPS – do inglês Cyber-Physical Systems). Além disso, os rápidos avanços da tecnologia de informação e comunicação proporcionam ferramentas para que essa interação possa analisar os dados, de forma cada vez mais rápida, autônoma, ubíqua e em tempo real, oferecendo informações que auxiliam aos humanos na tomada de decisões mais eficazes. Nesse contexto, o Prognóstico e Gestão da Saúde de máquinas (PHM – do inglês Prognostics Health and Management) é indicado como uma aplicação promissora da manufatura inteligente dentro do contexto de CPS. Atualmente as propostas de PHM encontradas na literatura cientifica são aplicadas a casos específicos e sem uma padronização da sua implementação, impedindo que tais abordagens possam ser replicadas em diferentes cenários da manufatura. Assim, o presente trabalho propõe a construção de um modelo ontológico para auxiliar na implementação do PHM em diversos cenários de manufatura, a ser aproveitada futuramente por ferramentas de softwares com foco em manufatura inteligente, padronizando seus conceitos, termos, e a forma de coleta e tratamento de dados. A abordagem metodológica DSR (do inglês Design Science Research) é usada para guiar o desenvolvimento da pesquisa. A construção deste modelo ontológico, que integra tanto os dados coletados quanto as informações necessárias para a tomada de decisões, possibilita o controle da estimativa de uma falha antes dela ocorrer de uma forma mais autônoma. Os principais resultados do modelo ontológico construído são: uma ontologia flexível capaz de ser usada em vários tipos de máquinas mecânicas de diversos tipos de manufatura; a possibilidade de armazenar o conhecimento contido em normas internacionais, históricos de atividades das máquinas, e arquiteturas consolidadas no contexto do PHM, permitindo a constante atualização de dados dependendo de particularidades que cada processo produtivo pode conter, e finalmente, usando a linguagem SPARQL entrega-se informações que podem ser usadas para tomada de decisões em intervenções oportunas de manutenção nos equipamentos de uma indústria real. O modelo é demonstrado considerando o caso de uma bomba centrífuga que comprovou sua fidelidade, integridade, nível de detalhe, robustez e consistência, fornecendo informações anteriormente alimentadas por dados reais obtidos em empresas próximas.
Recent advances in smart manufacturing open up opportunities in industrial support, specifically in maintenance and physical asset management. This trend allows data collected from machines, when are in full operation, to interact with cyberspace computers through a communication network, thus forming the concept of cyber-physical systems (CPS). Besides, rapid advances in information and communications technologies provide tools for analysing data, in an increasingly rapid, autonomously, ubiquitous and in real time way, providing information that assists humans in making better decisions. In this sense, Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) of machines, is indicated as a promising application of Smart Manufacturing in the CPS contexto. Currently the PHM proposals found in the scientific literature are applied to specific cases and without a standardization of their implementation, preventing such approaches from being replicated in different manufacturing scenarios. Thus, the present work proposes the construction of an ontological model to assist in the implementation of the PHM in several manufacturing scenarios, to be harnessed in the future by software tools focused on intelligent manufacturing, standardizing their concepts, terms, and the form of data collection and processing. The DSR (Design Science Research) methodological approach is used to guide the development of the research. The construction of this ontological model, which integrates both the collected data and the necessary information for the decision making, allows the control of the estimate of a failure before it occurs in a more autonomous way. The main results of the ontological model are: a flexible ontology capable of being used on several types of mechanical machines of various types of manufacturing; the possibility of storing the knowledge contained in international standards, machine history of activities, and consolidated architectures in the context of the PHM, allows the constant updating of data depending on particularities that each productive process can contain, and finally, using the SPARQL language, it is given information that can be used for decisionmaking in timely maintenance interventions in the equipment of a real industry. The model is demonstrated considering the case of a centrifugal pump that proved its fidelity, integrity, level of detail, robustness and consistency, providing information previously fed by real data obtained in nearby companies.

Abstract:
Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre du projet européen PAPYRUS (7th FWP (Seventh Framework Program) et concerne le développement de modèles et d'outils permettant l'analyse d'un procédé industriel en interaction avec les indicateurs des performances du système. Ainsi que la synthèse d'algorithmes "Plug & Play" de diagnostic de défauts. Plus précisément, le premier objectif de la thèse est de proposer des modèles et des critères qui permettent, pour un procédé complexe de grande dimension, de savoir si des objectifs, exprimés en termes de performances (coût, de sûreté de fonctionnement, etc.), sont atteignables. Dans le cadre de la modélisation de causalité du système, une méthode, basée sur le transfert entropie, est proposée afin d'identifier le modèle de causalité du système à partir des données. On s'intéressera aussi à l'influence de divers défauts sur cette atteignabilité. Les outils utilisés sont principalement basés sur l'analyse par approche graphique (graphe de causalité) conjointement avec des outils statistiques. Le second objectif concerne la mise en oeuvre d'algorithmes de diagnostic de défauts. Une procédure hiérarchique de diagnostic de défauts s'appuyant sur les modèles de causalité du système est mise en oeuvre. Cette étape a aussi pour objectif de permettre l'évaluation des performances du système. La cible est le procédé d'application du projet PAPYRUS (papeterie Stora Enso d'IMATRA en Finlande).
