This project aims at validating the assumption of predictive maintenance based on four parameters. The economy of Northern Quebec region is highly dependent on iron and aluminium production and transformation. Related industrial activities ensure employment for a large proportion of the population. Traditional maintenance is no longer enough to ensure competitiveness of these companies. Optimised asset management and maintenance is essential to reduce production cost and machine downtime. This project has as objective the development of a high precision maintenance method embodying instrumentation, statistical and numerical modeling techniques.
