Abstract: Predictive maintenance (PdM) has emerged as a critical approach to maintaining equipment in food and beverage manufacturing facilities. By proactively monitoring and analyzing equipment data, PdM can help to identify and prevent equipment failures before they occur. This can lead to significant reductions in unplanned downtime, improved efficiency, and lower maintenance costs. This paper discusses the key steps involved in implementing a PdM program in a food and beverage manufacturing facility. These steps include: Establishing clear goals and objectives for the PdM program. Identifying critical equipment and collecting data from these assets. Analyzing the collected data to identify patterns and trends that could indicate potential equipment failures. Developing predictive models that can be used to forecast equipment failures. Implementing a process for responding to PdM alerts and taking corrective action. The paper also discusses some of the challenges of implementing a PdM program in a food and beverage manufacturing facility, such as the need for a strong data culture and the need to integrate PdM with other maintenance activities.
