摘要：AbstractManufacturing is experiencing relevant changes under the challenges imposed by the sustainable economic development model. Under this model, the significant progress in advanced technologies is providing new opportunities to enhance competitiveness. Meanwhile, the maintenance function is transforming its role in order to better support value creation, both contributing to the economic dimension as well as extending its care for the environmental and social aspects. Maintenance 4.0 can break the trade-offs of the older strategies by enabling companies to maximize the useful life of their production equipment while avoiding unplanned downtime, minimizing planned downtime, increasing process and people safety, minimizing energy and resources consumption and saving costs. The paper presents the possibility of incorporation new technologies into the planning, implementation, monitoring and analysis of maintenance processes that support sustainable production in modern manufacturing companies.
