TSi
software schedules Preventive Maintenance of 150,000 Otis elevators |
The National
Science Foundation Funds TSi's Development of Advanced Health Monitoring,
Prognostics, and Maintenance Technology Under support from the National Science Foundation TSi continues to develop advanced tools for health monitoring and prognostics in the context of equipment maintenance. In the most recent phase of this work, TSi is developing “data mining” tools to quantify the impact of preventive maintenance practices on equipment performance. Using data supplied by the Otis Elevator Company, which has an extensive PM program in operation for many years, TSi is developing a data mining application to determine the optimal timing of PM procedures to maximize machine performance. In 1996 TSi developed an automated scheduling system for management of the PM process on all Otis elevators under maintenance contracts in North America . At present more than 150,000 units and approximately 1,800 technicians are managed by the system. Susan Meunier, Doug LaBrecque, Norman Bird, and Paul Rienhart make up the Otis Team working with TSi. |
