Enhancing a company's profitability and competitiveness using integrated vibration-based maintenance: a case study

Article Abstract:

The study develops a model to identify, monitor and improve the economic impact of vibration-based maintenance (VBM), and also to identify where, why and how much capital should be invested, and its cost-effectiveness. Results from the use of the model in a Swedish paper mill indicate that the better the data coverage and quality, the greater the control over direct maintenance costs, savings and profits in maintenance.
