STUDI PERAWATAN JARINGAN JALAN REL KERETA API BERBASIS KEHANDALAN (RCM) STUDY OF RELIABILITY-CENTERED MAINTENANCE (RCM) ON RAILWAY NETWORK
ABSTRACT: Up to now, railway
network maintenance in Indonesia is carried out on bases of routine maintenance
and is not yet completed with reliability
based maintenance which
is known for
its capability in
reducing structural failure
risk. This may be
one cause why
the railway accident
level in Indonesia
is still very
high. Due to increasing of
railway system complexity, a
traditional preventif maintenance
method which is based only
on knowledge and
experiences is not sufficient any longer. A maintenance
method which is based on reliability must be developed in the railway track
network to achieve zero level accident. Reliability Centered Maintenance – RCM is presented and elaborated in this
paper. RCM is a systematic
approach to systems
functionality, failures of
that functionality, causes
and effects of
failures, and infrastructures
affected bya failures. Once the failures are known, the consequences of them
must be taken into account. RCM executes systematically the analysis of failure
impact of each system component, and by using a diagram of logics, RCM builds
a proper maintenance
procedure and decides
maintenance actions to
be done. The outputs
of the RCM analysis
are maintenance work
priority sequences for
the maintenance department;
operational procedure for
the operators; and a list of works to be done facing to situation where
an equipment or system component fails to perform as expected. RCM is
a promising technique
because of several
factors: technical insights
obtained were better
than the existing, so
that several maintenance
processes could be
revisted and adjusted,
the interdisciplinary approach
used to make the
analysis was very
enriching and very
encouraging for maintenance
staff, and RCM
allowed to achieve
well-documented analysis and clear decision diagrams.
