Analysis of Spare Parts Demand Forecasting Considering Preventive Maintenance

摘要

Considering the importance of PM (preventive maintenance) in reliability engineering, the formula is given to calculate spare demand rate for the policies of age replacement policy, minimal maintenance policy and block replacement policy. And average spare demand rate was analyzed for age replacement policy, and an approximate empirical formula with PM interval and parameters of Weibull distribution was given compared to CM(corrective maintenance) and PM. Otherwise, compared to minimal maintenance policy and block replacement policy, the demand rate was analyzed in order to better forecast the spare parts demand.
