Worked Walkthrough: Build a Maintenance Strategy

Rewrite "inspect hydraulic system monthly" for a press that has repeated hose abrasion failures causing unplanned stops. Function -> failure mode -> consequence -> detectability -> task The common trap is improving the wording of a vague PM without linking it to a failure mode. "Inspect thoroughly" still fails if nobody knows what degradation to find, what limit rejects the asset, or what action follows. Function The hydraulic hose must deliver pressure to the press actuator without leakage, restriction, or burst under normal cycling. Function defines what failure means. Without function, teams inspect components rather than required performance. Failure mode…
