Abstract: Abstract In the view of maintenance plan, the work cycle is divided into two periods, namely normal maintenance period and idle period. During the normal maintenance period, the using unit isn’t maintained or replaced until it fails or PM time arrives. If the acting unit work time come idle period from normal maintenance period, the reliability requirement of acting unit is reduced. Acting unit work until it fails or its maximum permitted life arrives, then it is idle until overhaul time arrive. A numerical sample is illustrated and its process of work cycle is simulated by Monte Carle Simulation. It is concluded that the two stages maintenance policy in work cycle cuts down the maintenance times at the same time assures reliability level.
