Maintenance – Predictive maintenance in the palm oil industry : Part I

The current approach in automation of palm oil mills has one inherent weakness : the emphasis is more on process control than overall plant reliability. No matter how sophisticated the process control system adopted, mechanical failures of critical machines bring the plant to a standstill. Predictive maintenance can virtually eliminate unexpected breakdowns, i.e. increases reliability […]
