    Failure rate and reliability of the KOMATSU hydraulic excavator in surface limestone mine

    The model with failure rate function of bathtub-shaped is helpful in reliability analysis of any system and particularly in reliability associated privative maintenance. The usual Weibull distribution is, however, not capable to model the complete lifecycle of the any with a bathtub-shaped failure rate function. In this paper, failure rate and reliability analysis of the KOMATSU hydraulic excavator/shovel in surface mine is presented and also to improve the reliability and decrease the failure rate of each subsystem of the shovel based on the preventive maintenance. The model of the bathtub-shaped for shovel can also be seen as a simplification of the Weibull distribution. © 2018 Author(s).

    Reliability-based preventive maintainability analysis of shovel-dumper system in surface coal mine using ANN and isograph reliability workbench
    (International Information and Engineering Technology Association info@iieta.org, 2018) N. S., N.S.; Choudhary, R.P.; Murthy, C.S.N.
    Shovel-Dumper system is utilized as a loading and transporting machines for intermediate mechanization in surface mining. For survival in the exceptional competition in the global business environment in recent years, it is basic that the Shovel - Dumper system should be reliable and maintained adequately and effectively. This paper seeks to study the reliability, availability, and preventive maintenance of one shovel and four dumpers in a surface coal mine with failure and repair data by Isograph Reliability Workbench (RWB) in the case of a non-parametric statistical method such as K-S test. The constraints and reasons for machine unavailability are outlined. The reliability and availability of the shovel-dumper system are evaluated and also evaluated the maintenance time interval to improve the 80% of reliability for each system. The reliability, availability and preventive maintenance have been validated with the artificial neural network (ANN). ANN model is then connected to a reliability method, K-S test to predict the failure probability of shovel and dumper. © 2018 Mathematical Modelling of Engineering Problems.
