This is a periodic (scheduled) maintenance with predetermined intervals or number of attained cycles. It is carried out in a planned manner without prior determination of the actual condition of the object. It is a preventive measure aimed at extending the service lifespan, minimising downtime, and ensuring the operational and safe condition of machinery, equipment and other assets. It includes inspections, cleaning, lubrication, calibration, etc. If periodic maintenance is carried out correctly and effectively it should reduce breakdowns and failures, i.e. corrective maintenance.

An optional add-on module is available in the Patriot® 3.0 maintenance management information system:

Maintenance plan optimization

A very useful feature is the optimization of the periodic preventive maintenance schedule. There is a functionality that organizes the maintenance schedule according to the individual maintenance objects (both planned and operational maintenance - corrective, post-malfunction). This plan is generated automatically according to limit conditions; the key is the possibility of manual "fine-tuning" according to the actual needs of the available resources. The plan is focused on maintenance of objects with an emphasis on making them operational as quickly and efficiently as possible.
