Abstract
The high reliability of an industrial plant, machine and
equipment is often comprehended as a synonym for
smooth-running and safe operation. For the user, high
reliability means the uninterrupted flow of production,
minimised maintenance costs, lower personal and
environmental risks and energy saving. This is why the
users are very often eager to pay for advanced
reliability. This paper describes an approach developed
for improving the availability performance of production
systems. The approach is widely applicable for different
kinds of production systems. Experiences obtained when
utilising the approach in dairies are discussed.
