CMS and Efficiency
The knowledge of the topical state by regular or event-driven supervision of the (machines) state is the compelling condition for a "maintenance oriented to state". This strategy removes the up to now usual "reactive" or "preventive" maintenance. With the last-named are brought down in firm time intervals the concerning machine and components are checked or exchanged. This kind of the machine servicing often leads to the fact that intact components are exchanged and available "rest terms" are given away therefore economically and ecologically. Currently a debate uses how Condition monitoring systems can be put in the connection to the Life Cycle Cost (LCC). On this occasion, it is about technical as well as economic-ecological aspects.
