Abstract

This article shows the importance of data for the resolution of current problems, through a case study of preventive maintenance of a company’s machines. From a given inspection of the condition of the machines, enough data is obtained to simulate the operation of the machines under specific conditions using Python programming environment, for a long enough period of time to obtain reliable information about the machines’ lifetime. By using “R†, the statistical analysis of the data is performed to determine the optimal period between repairs, schedule the company’s preventive maintenance and show the possibility of solving complex problems from a simple data set.
