“…Reliability is an assessment of the probability for a certain time and conditions for the equipment to perform its required function without failure [3,17]. If the reliability of the equipment or system cannot be maintained properly, it will experience operational failure and result in considerable losses.…”

“…In recent decades, maintenance scheduling through reliability engineering analysis has played an important role in maintaining the system in an operating state [3]. Several recent studies have analyzed reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) in various types of industries and equipment, such as the ice cream industry [4], the bag industry [5], in mining with load, haul and dump machines (LHD machine) [6], in the textile process industry on steam boiler equipment [7], on conveyor system equipment [8], on deck objects on fishing vessels [9], plug-in electric vehicles [10], dragline equipment [11], truck unloading [12].…”

Reliability engineering is needed for scheduling maintenance to improve system or equipment performance. The purpose of this paper is to provide recommendations for maintenance schedules based on reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) analysis that optimizes the availability of mobile cranes operating in Indonesian oil and gas companies. This paper begins with searching for a critical system using the Pareto principle. The critical system is then made a reliability block diagram to facilitate the analysis. However, before conducting the analysis, it is necessary to know the characteristics of the probability distribution of the data so that the analysis results are accurate and stable. Analysis of reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) is then carried out in the probability distribution equation for each system. The analysis results show that the implementation of maintenance at the time of reliability reaches the mean time between failure, and the maximum maintainability time is 240 minutes. The result is an increase in the availability of the lower structure (LS) system by 0.53% (98.78% to 99.31%), electrical and safety equipment (ESE) by 0.19% (99.02% to 99.21%), upper structure (US) was 0.07% (99.32% to 99.39), and overall system availability was 0.07% (99.31% to 99.38%).

“…Marquez and Iung (2016) proposed a continuous-time stochastic simulation (Monte Carlo simulation) method for modeling and assessing the availability and reliability of a cogeneration plant when multiple factors such as system complexity, a wide range of failure modes, the environment and sustainability may influence system behavior. Jagtap et al (2020Jagtap et al ( , 2021 presented the particle swarm optimization technique for improving maintenance schedules and optimizing the availability of the thermal power plant subsystems. Patil et al (2020a) gave insights on the reliability, availability and maintainability of the steam boiler system and suggested that maintenance resources should be allocated to the feed-water system and fuel supply system to improve the boiler system's availability.…”

PurposeThis study focuses on the application of reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) to a textile industry steam boiler. The study aims to demonstrate the development and application of RCM to a steam boiler used in the textile industry.Design/methodology/approachRCM is a structured process that develops maintenance activities needed on physical resources in their operational environment to realize their inherent reliability by logically incorporating an appropriate mixture of reactive, preventive, condition-based and proactive maintenance methods. A detailed analysis of the RCM approach is presented to develop preventive maintenance (PM) program and improve the reliability and availability of the steam boiler system.FindingsThe research reveals that the identification of PM tasks is a good indicator of the PM program's efficiency and can serve as an important maintenance-related downtime source. It is also discovered that the majority of maintenance programs that claim to be proactive are, in fact, reactive. This article also shows how RCM may be successfully implemented to any system, resulting in increased system reliability.Research limitations/implicationsThe paper focuses on a pilot study of the development and implementation of the RCM technique to a textile industry steam boiler. It is suggested that the developed RCM model can be applied to the entire plant.Originality/valueThe paper presents a comprehensive RCM model framework as well as an RCM decision framework, providing maintenance managers and engineers with a step-by-step approach to RCM implementation. The proposed framework is significant in that it may be utilized for both qualitative and quantitative analysis at the same time.
