    Abstract

    Cost-effective maintenance of machines is strongly affected by good maintainability design. This paper presents the results of research project, in which virtual techniques were utilized to design, test, and analyze the maintainability already in development and design phase. In addition virtual machine models enhance the production of service manuals and task training material. The adaptability of new method to companies was tested in industrial cases, and cost factors were defined, on the basis of which a set of tools and procedures for maintainability design are suggested.
