Planned maintenance is one of the pillars of TPM. Its philosophy is: rather than fixing issues after machine breakdown, it is better to perform maintenance from the outset to prevent failures. The main objectives are to improve equipment performance, eliminate downtime, restore equipment to its basic condition; establish a smart factory equipment maintenance management system, and reduce maintenance costs. The process primarily involves analyzing smart factory equipment downtime issues through fault work orders, summarizing lessons learned, and establishing maintenance standards; taking measures to address weak points in equipment, conducting periodic maintenance and condition-based maintenance to extend equipment life, thereby preventing minor anomalies from escalating into major breakdowns.

The Smart Maintenance System developed by Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. uses intelligent algorithms to predict equipment failures and provide preventive recommendations. By following system prompts, enterprises can "know the unknown in advance," utilize planned downtime to proactively inspect potential faults and perform targeted maintenance on equipment, achieving the goals of planned maintenance and helping enterprises reduce smart factory maintenance costs.
