Preventing failure with software

摘要

"Many ship owners wish their vessels could be more maintenance-free," says Gerald Rolfe, manager for Asset Management Services at SKF Focused Industries Marine, "but the marine sector also needs to comply with international maritime laws and a regulatory environment, which ensure the regular, invasive inspection of critical equipment, to ensure structural integrity and reduced risk to human life on board. Therefore, traditional maintenance and inspections are usually based on fixed calendar intervals or machine running hours, within a planned maintenance regime." And that is where maintenance software can help.
