Proactive Maintenance Example of Selected Part of the Land Motor Vehicle

摘要

This article deals with current trends in the maintenance of land vehicles. At present the system of preventive maintenance takes into account the technical condition of transport vehicles and equipment. The aim of the article is to show the possibilities of performing the preventive maintenance. This enables us to purchase new technical equipment. If we are to perform a condition based preventive maintenance, a vehicle has to be equipped with an on-board diagnostic system OBD-11 and modern diagnostic instrumentation for individual types of technical equipment. Along with the technical aspects we should not forget about technical personnel training and interconnecting data within the information system. The aim of the work is to calculate the values of root mean square acceleration up to the moment a failure occurs. In the next step we will put the values into a graph and try to determine a gRMS limiting value. In the future this enables us to change the bearing before a failure occurs otherwise it would increase the related cost.
