SWAPs creation tool

SWAPs is a maintenance program based on 4 inputs: environmental and operational conditions, age of the equipment, previous maintenance carried out, and presence of monitoring and diagnostic solutions.

With this tool you will be guided to provide such information, getting at the end the maintenance plan for your line-up.

The form is organized in three sections:

Each field has a question mark next to its name, which will explain you which input is required. If this is the first time you use this tool, please download the PDF guide you can find at this link*, to have it available in case of doubts.
