Abstract (EN): In a world with a global market that is continually increasing, the productivity management plays an important key role to keep the competitiveness. The productivity can be achieved through the availability that can be increased through the adoption of efficient maintenance practices, by focusing the organisations on adequate type of maintenance strategy. Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) uses primarily non destructive testing techniques, as environmental indicators, visual inspection, monitoring functioning variables and performance data. This kind of maintenance replaces tasks of scheduled maintenance by warranted interventions predicted by on-condition limits previously defined. The interventions occur only when the equipments presents abnormal symptoms. The intervals of CBM are determined based on the expected delay to fail and are managed through the frequency by which the predictive interventions have to be done. The technological advances are accepted and applied on CBM systems, which includes improved knowledge of failure mechanisms, advancements in, failure forecasting techniques, monitoring and sensor devices, diagnostic and prognostic software, communication protocols, and computer networking technologies. The measurement precision and sensitivity of the Condition Monitoring (CM) techniques are used because they affect the reaction time available to reduce or eliminate the consequences of the functional failure. CBM maintenance tasks must be applicable under the situation of cost effective improvement, including external costs. The base of development of this paper is supported by an integrated system called SMIT (Terology Integrated Modular System), that permits to manage the maintenance itself, including on-condition maintenance, but it is modular enough to permit to associate new features, namely this last approach, in order to maintain the system up-to-date and, always possible, to anticipate the future.
