To be developped Equipment Reliability: Weibull Analysis Weibull analysis models the failure rate and gives risk prediction using ‘age to failure’ data. Weibull distribution gives 2 main parameters: η = characteristic life or scale parameter β = slope or shape parameter More information in Yves Thurel talk Weibull Analysis based on failure data useful for Preventive Maintenance Strategy β = 1, failure rate is constant, Failures are random Preventive maintenance of the equipment will have no effect on the equipment's failure occurrences β > 1, failure rate increases Preventive maintenance not waiting the failure has a benefit regarding the failure rate of the equipment To be developped Early Life Failures β < 1 Wear-Out Failures β > 1 Random Failures Ch.
