Maintenance activities mostly depend on the specific conditions of individual equipment, being defined as personalized businesses. In order to improve efficiency maintenance for complex equipment in lots, thinking mass customization is used. After modular technology used generic model, product/service was divided into mandatory and optional modules, which can form multiple service solutions. Co...

Maintenance management is one of the main focuses in industrial sector. Many maintenance functions with varieties optimization models have been proposed to aid maintenance management. However, there are limited models have been implemented in small and medium industries (SMIs). The data problems and the gap between theory and practice have always become a reason. In this paper, a new maintenanc...

In this paper, instead of the classical approach to the multi-criteria location selection problem, a new approach was presented based on selecting a portfolio of locations. First, the indices affecting the selection of maintenance stations were collected. The K-means model was used for clustering the maintenance stations. The optimal number of clusters was calculated through the Silhou...

Maintenance optimization has been extensively studied in the past decades. However, most of existing maintenance models focus on single-component systems and are not applicable to complex consisting multiple components, due various interactions among components. The multicomponent problem, which joins stochastic processes regarding failures components with combinatorial problems grouping activi...
