PROGNOSTIC AND PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE (PPMX)

Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) is an evaluation of real-time vehicle conditions, achieved through an intricate system of sensors, observations, and portable devices. While CBM gauges vehicle conditions, CBM+ offers recommendations for optimizing maintenance schedules and strategies to reduce life cycle costs and elevate readiness levels.

Oshkosh Defense has applied CBM and CBM+ methodologies across an array of defense platforms including the British Army’s Wheeled Tanker, and the U.S. Army ’s FMTV A1P2, PLS and JLTV. This transformative approach is also used in Oshkosh Corporation’s commercial fleet, including JLG® Lifts, Pierce® Fire Trucks, and McNeilus® Cement Mixers.

Oshkosh Defense harnesses CBM to monitor critical conditions in diverse equipment types, including torque tools and programmable logic controllers. This lends an exceptional dimension to maintenance efficiency and operations that are difficult to measure manually.
