While preventive maintenance depends on best practices and historical data, predictive maintenance collects data from machine operations in real time and uses it to raise red flags when signs of a problem are detected.
Predictive maintenance has the advantage of being a proactive method, which means it can detect an issue early on and repair it before it becomes a total failure. When something goes wrong, predictive maintenance can drastically reduce unplanned downtimes. It also increases labor efficiency by lowering the number of equipment breakdowns and extending the equipment’s lifespan.
