Abstract

Predictive maintenance is currently preferred over reactive maintenance because it’s very effective in reducing the costs incurred for unplanned breakdown stalling of a machine or equipment while production is running. In a production process at a Cement factory, the Milling station process is very important and becomes the main process. So, if something goes wrong in this process, the production line can be stopped, and the losses due to this are very big. Condition monitoring is a significant part of predictive maintenance because the application of condition monitoring allows the scheduled maintenance and precautions to be taken to prevent further failures and possible unplanned downtimes at a later date. By measuring the value of the vibration level, we can know whether the bearings and gear teeth on the machine are suitable for use or not. Based on this analysis, we can conclude that there is no sign of defect both on bearing in each gear teeth and the gear teeth inside the gearbox.
