Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to exemplify and discuss the context aspect for predictive analytics where in parallel condition monitoring (CM) measurements data and information related to the context are gathered and analysed.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper is based on an industrial case study, conducted in a manufacturing company. The linear axis of a machine tool has been selected as an object of interest. Available data from different sources have been gathered and a new CM function has been implemented. Details about performed steps of data acquisition and selection are provided. Among the obtained data, health indicators and context-related information have been identified.

Findings

Multiple sources of relevant contextual information have been identified. Performed analysis discovered the deviations in operational conditions when the same machining operation is repeatedly performed.

Originality/value

This paper shows the outcomes from a case study in real word industrial setup. A new visualisation method of gathered data is proposed to support decision-making process.

Abstract [en]

The research presented in this thesis is focused on improving industrial maintenance by using better decision support that is based on a wider range of input information. The core objective is to research how to integrate information from a population of similar monitored objects. The data to be aggregated comes from multiple disparate sources including double ball-bar circularity tests, the maintenance management system, and the machine tool’s controller. Various data processing and machine learning methods are applied and evaluated. Finally, an economic evaluation of the proposed approach is presented. The work performed is presented in five appended papers.

Paper I presents an investigation of cloud-based predictive maintenance concepts and their potential benefits and challenges.

Paper II presents the results of an investigation of available and potentially useful data from the perspective of predictive analytics with a focus on the linear axes of machine tools.

Paper III proposes a semantic framework for predictive maintenance, and investigates means of acquiring relevant information from different sources (i.e., ontology-based data retrieval).

Paper IV presents a method for data integration. The method is applied to data obtained from a real manufacturing setup. Simulation-based evaluation is used to compare results with a traditional time-based approach.

Paper V presents the results from additional simulation-based experiments based on the method from Paper IV. The aim is to improve the method and provide additional information that can support maintenance decision-making (e.g., determining the optimal interval for inspections).

The method developed in this thesis is applied to a population of linear axes from a set of similar multipurpose machine tools. The linear axes of machine tools are very important, as their performance directly affects machining quality. Measurements from circularity tests performed using a double ball-bar measuring device are combined with event and context information to build statistical failure and classification models. Based on those models, a decision-making process is proposed and evaluated. In the analysed case, the proposed approach leads to direct maintenance cost reduction of around 40 % compared to a time-based approach.
