Abstract: In a multi-state manufacturing system, preventive maintenance is performed on other machines once the performance of a machine falls below a threshold state. Many investigations have been performed on the maintenance of manufacturing systems. However, studies on preventive maintenance for manufacturing systems that account for the different costs involved are limited. This paper focuses on the analysis of multi-state machines in a manufacturing system considering different costs. Subsequently, a cost-based preventive maintenance prioritisation method for multi-state machines is proposed. Based on the buffer capacity, three maintenance policies on the machines are discussed. Different machine failures lead to different maintenance priorities. The real-time buffer capacity greatly influences the selection of machines for preventive maintenance. The set of the optimal machines for preventive maintenance is determined based on the constraints of machine running time and different preventive maintenance costs. Finally, a numerical example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
