Abstract

This project explores the application of predictive maintenance (PdM) in modern manufacturing, highlighting its strategic role in reducing downtime, optimising resources, and improving operational efficiency. Traditional reactive and preventive maintenance approaches are insufficient for Industry 4.0 environments, where machine failures can cause significant financial and operational losses. By leveraging sensor data, historical performance records, and machine learning techniques, PdM enables early detection of potential equipment failures, allowing maintenance teams to act proactively. The approach not only enhances operational reliability and safety but also supports strategic decision-making, cost control, and competitive advantage in globalised manufacturing contexts.
