RELIABILITY OF ENGINEERING EQUIPMENT AS THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS EFFICIENCY FACTOR

Abstract. Macroeconomic and geopolitical changes require the transformation of production systems. Enterprise production process, the key element of which is engineering equipment, should proceed in accordance with the principles of rationality, optimality and a high level of stability. In this regard, as well as due to a number of disadvantages of classical approaches to the analysis of equipment reliability, the authors propose an improved approach to determining the probability of equipment failure and uptime, based on the use of digital twins technology and conducting digital tests of equipment operation. The classical approach based on the collection and processing of statistical data is inferior to modern methods of technological processes modeling due to the fragmentation of data, high requirements for the organization of data collection and processing, expensive tests and the infl uence of the human factor. Digital twin technology, in turn, provides the collection of necessary data in real time, taking into account critical areas of equipment, modeling of equipment operation processes, highly effi cient planning of maintenance and repair of equipment, as well as forecasting the possible failure of equipment or the occurrence of emergency situations. In this regard, it is possible to improve the quality of the manufacturing process by ensuring the reliability of technological equipment, as well as the implementation of production programs in accordance with the policies of formation of technological sovereignty and national security
