Calculation of logistics resource requirement for individual maintenance processes

Abstract

The maintenance activities are related to production objects, but the consideration of the parameters of the maintenance process during material handling requires a completely different approach. The most important difference compared to production processes is the randomly arising servicing needs. The research presented here aimed at establishing an integrated material handling model for the entire maintenance processes. In this article, a calculation method will be presented that seeks to minimize the handling equipment requirement by analysing the transportation tasks of individual maintenance process elements. The relationships related to satisfying maintenance material and device needs can be used to determine the various parameters of the material handling equipment and the size of the equipment park required for maintenance.
