Design Maintenance System on Mixer Machine to Prevent the Breakdown Using Reliability Centered Maintenance

Abstract

Equipment, machinery, and labor are fundamental assets of an organization. Therefore, companies must have an appropriate and scheduled maintenance system. However, many manufacturing companies neglect maintenance, leading to frequent machine breakdowns that can result in machine downtime and financial losses. This research aims to determine the machine maintenance interval and the types of actions to be taken. The method employed is Reliability Centered Maintenance with the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis approach to identify failure patterns in a system and formulate the best strategies for designing a maintenance system. The results indicate that the CS-20 Type B mixer is the most critical machine, which can significantly reduce the company's production output due to machine downtime during the repair process. Based on the Reliability Maintenance method, the maintenance interval for components with potential failures is 273.17 hours for the bearing component, experiencing breakdowns three times with the highest damage occurrence within one year.
