Objectives

The basic goal of the course is to acquaint the students with the maintenance technologies which are applied in industry and other working milieus. Each technology requires special maintenance technique and each undertaking decides upon its own maintenance strategy. Student acquires the knowledge about the meaning of the undertakings decision for the single strategy from the costs point of view from development up to decomposition of the single device, machine or production line. Student acquires the basic knowledge about maintenance techniques and further about advantages and disadvantages of the single technique from the maintenance costs point of view. Furthermore the goal of the course is to acquaint the student with the basic undertakings organization schemes for the maintenance processes and departments.

Learning outcomes
Knowledge and understanding
Understand the meaning, disadvantages and advantages of maintenance technologies. Usage
Be able to insert single technology into a small, middle or large undertaking.
Reflection
Understand the basics of the techniques applied at preventive maintenance.
Transferrable skills related to more than one course
Be qualified, as plant engineer, to lead one or more groups of maintenance personnel.

Skills outcomes
Student will get to know these basic maintenance technologies and techniques which he will encounter in professional work. Likewise on the basis of the acquired
knowledge and further practical experiences he will be able to suggest a new concept or to supplement the existing maintenance concept or strategy in the undertaking. He will have enough knowledge to enable him in practice to apply modern measurement
techniques which are nowadays and in future to be used in maintenance. After acquiring some practice he will gain the ability to manage the maintenance in smaller and middle undertakings.
