A personalised operation and maintenance approach for complex products based on equipment portrait of product-service system. (April 2023) - Ren, Shan
Highlights: A personalised OM approach for complex products is proposed. A framework of POMA-CP based on equipment portrait within the PSS is developed. A multi-level case library and dynamic equipment portrait model are established. The feasibility of the proposed method is verified through an application scenario. Abstract: Based on the holistic data of product-service system (PSS) delivery processes, equipment portrait can be used to describe personalised user requirements and conduct targeted analysis on the performance of complex products. Therefore, a promising application combining PSS and equipment portrait is to establish a more refined portrait model to improve the accuracy and applicability of operation and maintenance (OM) schemes for industrial products. However, studies in the above field are facing many challenges. For example, the research on equipment portrait in the industrial field is still in its infancy. PSS and equipment portrait are studied separately, and the overall solution that integrates PSS and equipment portrait for complex products OM service is almost vacant. A personalised OM approach for complex products (POMA-CP) is proposed to address these challenges. First, a framework of POMA-CP is developed to show how the processes of refined OM can be implemented. Then, a solution of POMA-CP based on the framework is designed. A multi-level case library, dynamic equipment portrait model, and case-pushing mechanism are established and developed. Active pushing of the best similar cases and automatic generation of service schemes are realised. Finally, an application scenario for a high-speed electric multiple units (EMU) bogie is presented to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach. Higher accuracy and applicability for service schemes are achieved, resulting in the efficient reusing of OM knowledge, proactive implementation of refined maintenance, and reducing maintenance cost and resource consumption.
