Industrial maintenance has evolved tremendously over centuries—from basic tool repairs in ancient times to sophisticated, technology-driven strategies today.
The Industrial Revolution marked a significant turning point with the introduction of complex machinery that required planned and predictive maintenance approaches to ensure operational efficiency and reduce downtime.
By the mid-20th century, maintenance management became formalized with strategies like preventive maintenance and Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM), focusing on proactive asset care.
Today, with advances like Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS), Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, data analytics, and artificial intelligence, industrial maintenance is entering a new era of digital transformation.
For anyone involved in asset management or industrial operations, understanding this evolution is key. This article provides an insightful historical overview and explores how maintenance is adapting in the era of Industry 4.0:
